DEDICATION To the monster beneath my bed, you should know, I’m no longer staying silent. To the silenced, may you find strength amongst these pages the way I found mine while writing them. Please know you’re never alone.
I grab a cup of coffee. I sip the scalding liquid, letting the burn act as a punishment for my unruly imagination.
He’s successful and I’m broken.
My inner demon rattles the bars of his cage.
Every brutal secret of mine is hers if she wants it. There’s nothing I wouldn’t give her.
I’m standing on the edge of a cliff, and I have no choice but to go over. To dive into the ominous depths of my past and tell Declan everything. There’s no way of knowing if I’ll sink or swim. No way of knowing if I’ll fall straight on the rocks to my death or float on the waves. There’s no courage flowing through my veins. Only dread.
My tired soul unable to hold back any longer.
I clutch his shirt like it’s the only thing that can stop me from sinking, taking a deep lungful of his cologne to keep me afloat.
“There isn’t one goddamn thing I wouldn’t do to keep you.
The primal urge is overwhelming. Every cell in my body wants to bend her over and rail into her until she can’t remember a fucking thing about her life before me. Swallowing to control the fire in my veins,
She’ll be my every sunrise and every sunset for the rest of my life. On the days she can’t shine, I’ll be there to lift her above the clouds again.
Your beauty is only partly why you’re my wildflower. Wildflowers are resilient. They’re adaptable. Every year they’re mowed down and every year they bloom again. Just like you.”
His touch is soft despite the carnal hunger in his eyes.
If you want to stop, just say so.”
The feel of his hands. The caress ...
This highlight has been truncated due to consecutive passage length restrictions.
Declan trails his thumb over my clit.
My hips rock against his hand, desperate to find more.
He presses kisses to my inner thigh, alternating with every peck until he reaches the apex of my thighs. With his eyes on mine, he peels my panties off.
His hot breath skates over my skin.
His muscular arms wrap around my legs, pulling me closer to him. Euphoria floods my mind. The added pressure, the way he’s eating me like I’m the first dessert he’s ever had,
He attacks my clit. Sucking it into his mouth and nibbling. He’s relentless in his pursuit and I’m helpless against it.
When I’m with him, I feel free.
I can’t wait to have those hands on me, to feel their strength against my skin.
