CHAPTER TWELVE

IN ROMANCE NOVELS and movies, Sophia reflected, the couple in love were always steps away from the most convenient bed or a private corner. In real life, however, they had to make their way out of the park. Then he walked her to her apartment nearby so she could feed her cat and change into fresh clothes.

He was waiting in the hallway and, as she reached for another skirt and tank top, she hesitated. She made a decision, and instead grabbed a red sundress, one that had been buried at the back of her closet for years. Red was showy. Red called attention. She was desperately tired of gray. She put the dress on, and then after a moment, she reached into her underwear drawer too.

When she stepped out into the hallway, Dominic's eyes widened, and he gave a low wolf whistle.

“I am so glad you want me to see you,” he said, and she smiled shyly.

He took her to his hotel room. It wasn't far away, but the luxury when compared to her homey little apartment was unbelievable. The whisper-soft elevator took them straight to the penthouse, and she gasped to see it. The rooms were lavish, and through a set of beautiful French doors was a bed that looked a mile wide. Suddenly she was shy again, and she turned to Dominic.

“Do you like it?” he asked.

“I…surely not for me?”

His grin was fierce, and for a moment, she thought of a conquering warrior returning home with his prize.

“It's all for you,” he promised. “All of it, if you want it. That includes me.”

On that front, at least, she had no fears, and without a single moment of worry, she reached for him.

Sophia yelped when he swept her up in his arms. She was short, but she was far from light. He carried her as if she weighed no more than a feather. In his arms, she felt a subtle tickle run over her body. She delighted in how close they were, how they could make each other feel.

He set her down in the center of the bed and raised himself over her, looking down at her for a long moment.

“What do you see?” she asked half-fearfully.

His smile was as soft as the summer dawn. “A beautiful woman that makes my heart ache,” he responded, leaning down to touch his forehead to hers.

They held each other's gaze, and she thought that she could get lost in the green. There was something wild about this man. She hadn't forgotten the danger he offered, but right now, all of that mattered far less than the fact that they were together. It was perfect, it was right, and she refused to let anything get in the way. Words caught in her throat. The daggers, the conversation he had had. The way he knew so little about her and her own past. It was as if Dominic could sense all of that. Instead of waiting for her to speak, he leaned down and brushed his mouth against hers.
