But the fear is right behind it, afraid I’ll get rejected by him again.

Trying to refocus on his earlier words, I lick my lips, my mouth dry. “You asked if we could talk?”

“I did.” His smirk widens. “I want to briefly discuss something with you.” Something flashes in his eyes, revealing the beast inside.

William.

My pulse beats against the side of my neck as my heart slams inside my chest.

God, he’s torturing me.

His smile is arrogant as he says, “Then I want to devour every fucking inch of you.”

Shit.

My eyes widen, my breathing accelerates as though I’m sprinting on the treadmill, a slight buzzing in my ears.

Did I hear him correctly?

His hands slide from my waist to my back, pulling me from my thoughts.

It’s not lost on me that he was just gripping my hips, and not only did I not flinch, but I wasn’t even aware his hands were there as he made my body come to life.

And he’s barely touched me yet.

His fingers go to my messy bun, pulling my strands free so they hang down my back. “That’s right, goddess. I plan to devour every single inch of you. Cancel any plans you’ve made for the rest of the day—and night. Because you’re mine.Allmine.”

Christ.

My pussy clenches, and goosebumps erupt all over my body.

“But first, I need to reveal what I’ve been keeping from you.” His fingers lightly run over my back, making me shiver. “I’ve been feeling guilty as hell. It’s because of me that you were drugged, kidnapped, and nearly—” His voice wavers before cutting out, the first sign of his confidence slipping. He clears his throat. “Violated. It shredded my insides, tearing me apart when I realized that if not for me, you wouldn’t have been in that predicament.”

“Oh, Will.” My eyes swim with tears as I shake my head.

“Let me finish, gorgeous.” He gives me a small smile that vanishes far too quickly. “It was hurting you, likely causing you to form assumptions that aren’t true.At all.” His eyes burn into me, an inferno of desire that nearly incinerates me. His uninjured hand moves to my cheek, fingers gliding over my skin, even though they are still marred with cuts and scabs from him beating the shit out of Colin. “My guilt has been driving a wedge between us, making me lose focus on what matters most—you.Right here and now, I vow to toss my guilt away, and place the blame solely where it belongs—on Colin.” Staring at me with a promise in his eyes, I see the beast and man shining from his blue orbs, captivating me. He waves a hand dismissively. “I’ll take care of that bastard later. But right now…” His hand slides lower, causing me to suck in a breath when his hand squeezes my breast, his thumb flicking over my nipple. A lightning bolt zings through me, straight to my pussy. I whimper again, my hips automatically moving, grinding over his hard cock as I bite my lip. He smiles, his voice low and husky when he says, “I’m going to worship you and make you come so hard you see stars.”

Fuck yes.

Hooking his arms beneath my legs, he stands, my arms cinched behind his neck.

“Will, your hand—”

“Fuck my hand,” he growls, stepping from the tub, striding toward the bed, not even bothering with a towel.

“But I don’t want you—”

His mouth crashes against mine, a deep growl rumbling from his chest. The vibrations of it flow through me as my lips tingle from the way he’s devouring them with his. I groan into his mouth, grinding against him.

The silky sheets stick to my wet skin as he lays me on the bed, pulling back enough to say, “Damn, I’ve missed the taste of your mouth,” before lowering his head and pressing his lips to mine again.

I submit, losing myself in him, dizzy from the lust that swirls inside me. He deepens the kiss, our tongues tangling, our hands sliding over one another’s skin haphazardly from the soapy bubbles that cling to us, scenting the bed in vanilla elixir and making it harder to grip one another.

When his lips leave mine and glide over my skin to my neck, I gasp out, “I really don’t want to hurt your hand more.”

His lips move away from my skin. “I’ll make allowances. Besides, I can always use my mouth and tongue more. You like it better, anyway.”

Fuck me. He has an answer for everything.
