“Excuse me?” I manage to stutter.
He steps closer, his massive body caging me as the back of my knees make contact with the mattress.
“You heard me.” His front brushes against me, igniting a blaze of heat within me that rushes to my core. In a desperate bid to get some space between us, I sink down onto the mattress.
Bad move.
He’s towering above me now, looking down on me and I suddenly feel fucking helpless as he sinks a hand into my hair. It’s so gentle. Too gentle in comparison to his imposing demeanor as his free hand slides up my breast and to my throat. His index lingers over my pulse point while his thumb falls into the hollow of my throat with that same soft pressure as his hand in my hair.
It's jarring because I know how easily he can adjust his hold. How quickly it can go from gentle to crushing.
And... I like it.
“I said you’re not leaving.”
I swallow and his thumb traces the motion.
“You said we’d split amicably if one of us wanted to end things.”
“Fuck what I said. I told you before I made love to you that if we did that, you’re mine and there’s no going back.”
“Cole... People say all kinds of things in the heat of the moment.” He scoffs at my excuse.
“Why are you so scared, baby? Are you scared of me, or are you scared about what I have to say? Are you scared of being in love or are you scared of getting hurt?”
“I—I’m not scared,” I croak.
As he starts massaging my scalp I fight to keep my eyes open. Everytime they flutter closed though he presses his thumb into my throat and pulls on my hair, forcing me to open my eyes again and look at him.
“No?” he asks, continuing his ministrations. “Then why are you trembling?”
Because I feel like my pussy’s going to explode if he pulls on my hair one more time.
“I think you are scared. I think you're trying to run because you’re afraid of what I have to say. You’re afraid that I’ll reject you so you’re trying to leave before I get the chance. You’re so convinced that no one else could love Zander as much as you do so you try to put space between us. You try to shield him from a rejection that’s never going to come from me. You try to shield your heart from me.”
“Like you said, you can’t separate your heart from your body and I can’t either. I wasn’t just trying to fuck you in the field, Zoe. If that was the case, I’d never do so raw. Nor would I waste my first time with someone I didn’t give a damn about for just sex. If I felt that way, I had plenty of opportunities before thirty-two to do so.”
What??? This sex god of a man was a virgin too?
“What we have could never be just anything. I love you Zoe and I love Zander and if you want a divorce get ready for a long battle because I’m not signing a damn thing.”
