“Where are you escaping to, Kitten?”

I squeak. “My room.”

With a grunt of displeasure his only reply, Cash spins and carries me back to his room. He kicks the door shut with an alarming slam that jolts my body before he drops me in his bed to stand over me. In the light of the moon that spills around his dark curtains, I think I see the set to an angry glare on his face.

My heart flips.

I’m confused. “You’re mad?”

He makes another low noise. “Not pleased.”

“I thought—I thought I was doing the right thing?”

“And what’s that, Kitten?” Big hands move to his hips, muscles flexing in his bare chest, rippling under silver spun moonlight.

“Um…” I clear my throat. “I didn’t think you’d want to wake up with me in your bed.”

“Why would you think that?”

“Because we—what we did—it was fun but…” I pause, my words cut off by uncertainty. “Cash, it’s not like I’m your real girlfriend. We were having fun, and I thought I was supposed to leave so things didn’t—um—get uncomfortable in the morning.”

For a long moment, he just stands there above me, his hands on his hips. Then his muscles flex as he shifts his hands to the band of his sweats, shoving them from his hips. My heart is in my throat even as I feel the beat of it between my legs. Anticipation ignites a fire in my blood and my mind spins—becausehow? How can my body possibly want to come unstitched for him again? I’m not even sure I’ve fully tethered all the pieces back together from the last time, and here I am again, ready to be shred. Begging silently to be torn apart if only to pull him deeper into me.

I’m a mess.

He kicks off his sweats, leaving himself totallybare. I can’t help but look at him. Cash is beautiful. He’s big in a way that could be menacing, but I trust with every fibre of my being, every thread that stitches together the most delicate parts of me, that he will never hurt me.

Still, as he settles his big body between my legs, his cock hard between his legs, I can’t deny there’s a spicy thrill that rolls through me. His eyes are on my face as his hands move to the hem of my shirt, and he pushes it up my body and over my head. It connects with his floor for the second time tonight in the seconds before he blankets my body with his, connecting us—everywhere.

Cash claims my mouth as the hard length of him slides against my core. That thrill expands. A thousand tiny butterflies sweep velvet wings along my insides as he devours my sighs, feasts on my moans, and unravels every protest my mind dares to make with every sweep of his tongue. When he pulls back, I’m breathless.

“You still think this is fake, Kitten?”

My body jolts under his. “Wh—what?”

“This hasn’t been fake since the moment I stole the first kiss. You’ve been mine—” He moves over me, dragging the length of his cock against my core in delicious torment. “Since the first moment I realized your innocence stained my fingers.” I gasp. I’m not sure if I’m trembling from his words,or from the feeling of his body so completely wrapped around mine. “You’re mine, Kitten. All of you is mine, and I’m all yours.”

“Cash…” He kisses me again, breaking off my words. I don’t even know what I’d have said. I just know I’m feeling so much, too much. He kisses me until I can’t think anymore. Until I’m not sure where I end, and he begins.

“You stay with me in my bed from now on, Wrenlee.” He pulls back just enough to command, “Every night.”

My heart feels full. Too full.

So full it might burst.

“If I’m really yours…”

“You are.”

“Show me.”

Cash

“How?” My voice comes out rough and raw. The way this little woman affects me, and she doesn’t even seem to see it. It’s shocking. Alarming. I want to prove it to her. I want to show her how she moves me. How the image of her is branded in my mind. The scent of her is scored on my lungs. The taste of her is etched onto my tongue.

If I have a soul, hers is the other half. The light to the dark. The soft to the hard. She’s tethered to the core of me by divine thread, needled into the innermost parts of me. I’ll never let her go, never walk away from her. Never love another the way I love her.
