Dreadful Excerpt

“You look mad enough to strangle me with that tape,” I chuckle.
“Nope. Not at all. Like I said, I feel nothing.” She gives me a smug look over her shoulder. “You’d probably like it, anyway, wouldn’t you?”
Her dare heats the space between us like a flame. My voice lowers and I whisper in her ear. She can’t help but lean toward me.
“Try it and find out, vipera.”
A low gasp escapes her, and I stroke my finger a hairsbreadth away from her cheek. She drifts toward me, touching her back against my chest. My cock hardens, begging to feel her. I don’t move, but I keep silently encouraging her come to me.
“You know what I think?” I ask.
“What?” her question is husky and full of need.
“I think you’re afraid of what will happen when you give into this. You know that once you do, you’ll crave my firm hand as much as I already crave your soft touch.”
I don’t know who surrenders when her cheek and my hand finally brush. I caress my fingertip slowly down her skin. Desire radiates from her, and it takes all my restraint to keep from spinning her around to kiss her.
But I know I’m right. She wants to be in charge. For now. It won’t be until she trusts me fully that she’ll let us have what we both need.
