Part III Chapter Eight(11/27)

and his amused expression is

gone, replaced by something hotter . . . much hotter. I reach up and push his

shirt off his shoulders, letting it fall to the floor.

“For whatever you want, Ana.”

My eyes stray from his eyes to his lips. Parted so that he can inhale more
