Chapter 4
Devin
âSo Cristoff sent you to kill me?â Devin asked, his mouth hanging open.
Cara nodded. âYes, but he didnât tell me it was you. He said to just break into the house and shoot whoever was there while they slept.â
âShit. Thank God I was awake and heard you come in,â Devin said. Typically, he was a pretty heavy sleeper. So, if he had managed to fall asleep before Cara broke in, there was a very high chance she would have succeeded with her plan.
âI know,â Cara said, squeezing her eyes closed, and pressing her naked body against Devinâs said. âI donât even want to think about what could have happened. Itâs too horrible.â
Devin trailed his fingers along her spine, loving the smoothness of her skin, the smell of her shampoo, the feeling of her heart beating against his ribs.
âI never thought Iâd see you again,â he said, kissing the top of her head.
âI know. Me too.â
Devin sighed. âI am sorry, you know? About everything.â
âI know,â Cara said, leaning up to kiss his chin. âMe too.â
âI was a different person before I met you. I barely recognize the man who made all of those decisions. The man who wanted to hurt you. I canât even believe he and I are the same person most days.â
âI forgive you,â Cara said. âI realized that the moment I understood Iâd never see you again. When I realized I couldnât call you or contact you, all I wanted to do was forgive you. I wanted to go back in time and have things end differently.â
âNo, you shouldnât have any regrets. Iâm the one who should have regrets. I am the one who screwed up. I should have told you the truth before we met with Cristoff. I should have told you the truth after we first slept together. I was just so afraid youâd leave. I didnât think Iâd survive if you left.â
âYes, you should have told me,â Cara said. âBut I also should have tried to be more understanding. Youâve had to lie and manipulate people your entire life. It was how you survived. So, of course, it was how you chose to deal with me. I should have cut you some slack.â
Devin wrapped his arms around Caraâs shoulders and pulled her into him. âYouâre too good for me. Way too good.â
Cara lifted herself up on her arms, her eyes narrowed. âIâm not too good,â she said, crawling over Devinâs body, her breasts swaying freely in front of his face. âIâm very very bad.â
She kissed him and then trailed kisses down his torso until she reached down and took him in her mouth, never once losing eye contact. Devin wasnât sure heâd be able to perform, but a few bobs of her head, and he was back in the game.
She started at the tip, and let her lips slide all the way down him, further and further until he was certain sheâd have to stop, and then even further until her lips touched the base of him.
