Chapter Nine

Tessa closed her eyes as Rhys laid her down on the mattress. She couldn’t believe this was happening. Not really.

Maybe Rhys was right. Maybe her emotions had gotten the better of her. Maybe she wasn’t thinking straight. The funny thing was, she didn’t care.

Her body had been used against her for too long. It had been cut and battered, and her mind was no better. All she wanted was to feel something she controlled, something that filled her with pleasure instead of pain.

Rhys’ kisses did that. They reminded her that there was still sweetness in life.

And how sweet it could be.

Tessa slipped her hands under his shirt and slid her open palms over Rhys’ hard abs as he kissed her again. His skin felt warm and tight beneath her fingers. She wanted more.

She pulled at his shirt, desperate to peel it off of him. After a second, Rhys gave her a hand and lifted it over his head.

Tessa opened her eyes a crack, and her mouth fell open.

Damn.

Well, if she still needed proof that there was still good in the world, the sight of Rhys’ chest was a pretty good start.

But only a start.

She tugged at the button of his pants and pulled down the zipper. He hissed in a breath as she dipped her hand below his waistband. Tessa relished the sound.

She slid his jeans down to his knees, and he kicked them off the rest of the way.

Yeah, that was much better.

Rhys laid his back down on the bed, and Tessa explored his body with her hands. Every part of him felt amazing, from the hard power of his thighs to the tight velvet feel of his pecs.

When she got up to the thick column of his neck, Rhys wrapped his arms around her and pressed her close.

“Now you,” he practically growled.

He ran the tip of his tongue over her bottom lip, and Tessa felt a rush of shivers flow through her.

Rhys lifted her shirt as she shimmied out of her pants.

Tessa had never felt comfortable undressing in front of anyone, but this time was different. Even with all the angry marks and scars marring her torso, she didn’t feel the slightest bit self-conscious.

Maybe it was because she knew that he’d seen them all before. Maybe it was because he was the reason they’d healed so well.

Or maybe there was just something about Rhys. Something that made her feel comfortable. When she was by his side she couldn’t help but feel safe and protected, even from her own doubts.

His breathing was low and hard as he swept his hands up the length of her arms. The heavy look of desire in his eyes told her that he wanted to do more, but he was holding himself back.

“Are you sure you can handle this?” he asked, his voice low and gravely. “Because we can wait if that’s what you need.”

Tessa grinned as she slung her leg over his hips and straddled his prostrate body.

“I’m done waiting,” she said.

She reached down and wrapped her palm around his cock.
