“No, I just know what I want,” he says with confidence, standing as well.

“And what about whatIwant? Doesn’t that matter to you at all?”

I wrap the sides of my ruined dress around my body, trying to cover myself. His eyes darken and he frowns.

“You want kids, a family,” he uses my words from earlier tonight against me. “I’m offering you all of that.”

I glare at him. “You’re insane!” I throw my hands in the air.

“No. I’m in love.”

“You don’t even know me!” I yell. “How dare you say you love me?”

“I know what I feel. What I have been feeling for months.”

I glare at him where he remains seated against the tree trunk, his cock sticking out into the air while the damn video plays on a loop in the background. Screams and moans punctuate the quiet night air.

“Why tonight?” I ask, trying to cover my nudity with the tattered remains of my dress.

“You wouldn’t believe me,” he replies with a frown. “I’m not even sure I believe it.”

Chapter Nine

Burke

I stare at her from my spot beside the tree trunk, taking in her beauty, her anger, and everything that makes her the person I have fallen in love with. Tonight has taken its toll, not just on her but on me as well. There is a reason I’m not standing in front of her, why I’m not wrapping her in my arms. My damn legs won’t work.

The moment the darkness left me, fatigue set in. In my life I have never felt as bone tired as I do in this moment. I saw the same footage she watched, I saw it inside me, fighting for dominance.

“Tell me,” she says, canting her head to the side.

A sigh leaves me. “Will you sit beside me?”

“Now you start asking for things?”

Her cheeks are red with anger, blazing twin fires in her eyes as she continues to glare. She has every right to be pissed off but the fact that she hasn’t run again says more than her words or her rage ever could.

“Please.”

It takes her a moment to decide before she finally makes her way over to me. Once she is seated, I start the video and turn it toward her.

“What do you see?”

“I get the point. I enjoyed everything you did. It doesn’t make it right and it doesn’t answer my question.”

“Look closer,” I implore. “Look at me.”

She takes the device from my hand, watching the footage, going forward and backward before pausing it on a specific spot.

“I don’t understand,” she whispers.

“I have wanted you since I first laid eyes on you, I won’t lie about it. I have gone home and rubbed myself raw withthoughts of you in my bed,” I confess. “I have had dark and dirty thoughts about you every single day. But never like this. This…”

“You didn’t know you wanted it until you were in the moment,” she whispers.

“Yes.”

“I still don’t understand.” A frown mars her beautiful face.
