Steamy Excerpt:
He didn’t want to have sex with her. No, he wanted to make love to
her. And that was different. She wasn’t a slot B for his tab A. If he could, he
would assure her life was filled with goodness and joy, protecting her,
standing by her, and… Fuck! He clenched the hair on the top of his head
with his fist. No way was he going to use the l-word. Not even think it.
Whatever he was feeling, he had to keep it from Bassinae until he figured out
how to induce the stubborn female to recognize that he wasn’t like her former
boyfriend. That men weren’t naturally given to abusing their girlfriends. That
a special forces commando trained to kill, maim, and destroy, would never ever
harm the woman he loved.
“Buck up, lionceau. Things aren’t that bad.” She grabbed
his hand and pulled him into his apartment, shoving him toward the bathroom.
“Now go get clean. You’re getting aromatic.”
The twitch her ass made when she walked away from him brought his
cock back to full attention. With a groan, he stepped inside, closed the door
behind him, and leaned against it, knocking his head against the wood. How the
hell was he going to be around Bassinae sporting a non-stop erection. He’d
dropped weight, so his pants were roomier, but with a cock the size of his they
might not be big enough to hide the true nature of his affection for her. If
not, he’d have to invest in something baggy. Meanwhile there was one certain
way of taming a hard-on.
He set the shower to hot, stripped, and climbed under the pelting
water. The massage setting was his favorite, but he switched to soft rain. A
hand planted on the cool tile above his head, he leaned into the spray, letting
it soak his hair and drizzle heat down his back. He sighed, wanting Bassinae so
bad he could almost taste her. But until he did he would never experience the
flavor of sunshine. Or the sensation of her gliding around his cock while he
whispered dirty words in her ear.
Fuck all. The
dispenser plopped a generous dollop of soap in his hand. After smearing
it over his erection, he fisted it, pulling in long strokes from root to tip. A
manly pine-forest scent wafted up to his nose, nothing like the flowery aroma
that trailed after Bassinae. His Bassinae. The woman he needed beyond anything,
needed to strip, to explore with his mouth and teeth, and to discover all the
shades of brown that colored her delectable skin. She would open to him, tender
and responsive. The heat generated by their give and take would fuse them, make
them one, and he would find the home he’d always longed for, hidden in the
depths of her heart.
