“It hurts, doesn’t it?” he whispered, letting me strain to the limit of my bonds, maintaining the distance between us with a smirk. “Being so close to what you need, yet unable to take it.

Protection I didn’t need before him. Captain Asher Rawlings is a man apart. Relentless. Driven to take and possess. And he’s winning. less
