FIONA

I didn’t know what possessed me to follow Theo to his house on the other side of Forsyth Park. Maybe it was the heat of him against me when I’d been so cold for so long. Maybe it was the way his giant hand engulfed mine as he pulled me behind him, his hold so gentle and so strong. I knew he could play me like an instrument if he put his mind to it.

Or maybe it was because I craved him like a fucking junkie and always had.

Before I knew it, we walked up a set of porch stairs to a pretty midnight-blue door I barely saw. The inside of his home was black as pitch, and I knew he could see everything in the dark even though I couldn’t. It was almost like being blindfolded, the illicit little bit of danger making the need in my middle double in size.

As soon as the door closed behind us, Theo picked me up like I weighed nothing—to him, I probably didn’t—and set my ass on a hard surface, fitting his body between my open legs. My breath hitched at the full-body contact, the electricity pulsing between us like a live wire.

But better? His breath hitched, too. He wanted me just as much as I wanted him. I was willing to bet on it.

A moment later, his lips brushed mine—soft at first before turning hungry, demanding, owning my mouth like it was a mere preview of how he’d own the rest of me. My breasts ached as they pressed against his hard chest, so heavy it was as if they were begging for his hands on them, too.

His fingers found their way under my sweater, his blazing touch against my skin smooth as silk and gentle as a whisper.

But I didn’t want gentle.

I didn’t want nice.

And as if he was reading my mind, he fisted his hands in the fabric and ripped, tearing it up the middle to expose my bra. Theo let loose a long low growl, the vibration of it making me shiver with want. My legs tightened around him, pulling him in, pulling him closer, almost begging in a way I wouldn’t let myself otherwise.

“Fuck,” he murmured. “You’re so fucking pretty.”

He trailed a finger over the swell of one of my breasts before hooking it into the fabric. The gentle scrape of what could only be a talon raked across a nipple before catching the center of my bra and ripping it in two.

Exposed.

In the dark.

I felt his eyes on me even though I couldn’t see him. It was as if he was kissing every inch of me, worshipping every square inch of bare skin.

I fisted my hands in his suit jacket, yanking it down his arms. Theo got with the program, peeling out of that damn jacket while I worked on the buttons of his shirt. A snap of my fingers later, and they went flying, pinging against the floor in every direction.

“I want to see you,” I whispered, the dark room making me miss all the good bits.
