“You hit me the instant I saw you,” he said gruffly. “I couldn’t look away. I wanted you immediately. Excessively. Almost violently.”
“It’s what you see in me, angel,” he said quietly, his features softening. “That you can know what I have in me and still want me as much as I want you.
Folding over me, he pressed his lips softly to mine. “Don’t you know, angel?” he breathed. “There’s no one I trust more.”
UGHHH MELTINGG
“I’m going to fall,” I slurred, drunk with pleasure. “I’ll catch you, angel. I’ll always catch you.”
Most suits made the man. Gideon did things to a three-piece suit that should’ve been illegal.
“You’re the greatest risk I’ve ever taken.” His pressed his lips gently to mine. “And the greatest reward.”
I growled. “How do you make something unreasonable sound reasonable?” “It’s a gift.”
He looked up and pinned me with his gaze. I watched his focus shift from work to me. “Am I neglecting you, angel?” he asked, leaning back in his chair. I flushed, wishing he couldn’t read me so well. “I’m sorry to interrupt.” “You should always come to me when you need something.”
UGHHH IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR
the look in his eyes . . . My throat burned. The power and scorching intensity, the hunger and need. His fingertips brushed over my temples, across my cheeks, down to my throat. He tilted my jaw up and his lips pressed gently against mine. He didn’t say anything, but he didn’t have to. I got it.
“I’d rather argue with you, angel, than laugh with anyone else.”
HOLYYYYYYY AAAAAAA
“Sometimes love isn’t enough. And if it’s not enough, what good is it?”
“You think you can say a few words and end us? There is no end, Eva.”
I was pinned by six feet, two inches of violently aroused male.
“Don’t leave me.” “Leave you? I’m going to marry you.”
Reaching for my hand, he lifted it to his lips and kissed my fingertips. “I love you.”
“People get over love. They can live without it, they can move on. Love can be lost and found again. But that won’t happen for me. I won’t survive you, Eva.” My breath caught at the look on his face when he glanced at me. “I’m obsessed with you, angel. Addicted to you. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted or needed, everything I’ve ever dreamed of. You’re everything. I live and breathe you. For you.”
“I don’t need anything else. I get out of bed every morning and face the world because you’re in it.”
“Because of you, the world makes sense to me in a way it didn’t before. I have a place now, with you.”
We’re both reacting totally different from the way we would have just a month ago.” He was different. He smiled, and there was something unique about that warm curving of his lips. “We trust each other, Eva. It feels good, doesn’t it?”
He caught me to him, his arms banded tight around me. His face pressed into my throat. “Where do we go from here?” I held him. “Wherever this takes us. Together.”
