how to please a woman, triggered something dark and needy to unfurl inside her. She’d heard things about him, from some of Angie’s friends and a few of his Marine friends she’d met overseas, about him liking control over his partners in bed, and now she knew it was true. Dark fantasies of being tied up and at his mercy swam through her mind, turned her body liquid. If they had sex he would take over entirely, render her helpless and make her beg for more, scream his name as he fucked her. And she’d love every second of it.
It scared the hell out of her.
Clinging to what remained of her sanity, she dragged her mouth away. “I can’t,” she panted in a ragged voice. “I can’t do this.”
Breathing hard, eyes glittering with naked need, Liam stared at her. “Why not?”
“Just can’t.” Frantic, she shoved at his shoulders. If he kept seducing her, pushing her, she’d cave and let him take her right here. Her body screamed for release. She knew he’d give it to her. He’d pin her to that bed behind him while she sobbed in ecstasy as he pleasured her with his mouth, his cock. And she’d let him do it all. Anything he wanted, the consequences be damned. He released her hair and eased back but didn’t free her from the cage of his arms. His delectable scent infused the air around them, clean and masculine. Her head spun.
“Tell me why, Tal. You want me.”
Of course she wanted him! It tore her up to walk away from this chance to be with him the way she’d always dreamed of. How could she possibly make him understand? She searched for the right words. “I don’t…I don’t want to lose you.”
His expression instantly softened. He cupped her hot cheek, caressed it with his thumb. “Baby, you won’t lose me. I’ve wanted you for so long.”
The sincerity in his eyes, in his voice, made her ache. She wanted to believe him that things wouldn’t change between them if they slept together. But she didn’t dare take the risk. He and his family were too important to her. Aside from the Corps, they were the only solid foundation in her life.
Legs unsteady, aching for so much more of him, she pulled free of his embrace. “I’m sorry. I can’t.”
A tense moment passed. Jaw tightening, Liam stepped back and nodded slowly.
Mentally wincing at the anger she sensed simmering inside him, she tried to think of something to say. God, had she ruined everything anyway? “I’m so sor—”
“Apologize again and I’m going to get pissed off,” he growled, spearing her with that hot, dark gaze.
She stood there in uncertainty while the sexual tension hummed thick in the air around them. For a second she wavered, thought about giving in, then mentally slapped herself for the traitorous thought.
Finally he sighed and raked a hand through his hair. A picture of male frustration. “You said you’re going back to you mom’s tomorrow. What time?”
The reminder left her cold. “Not sure.”
Liam snorted. “Hell, Tal, you don’t want to sleep with me, fine, I can handle that. But I’m not going to take anymore of this bullshit with you shutting me and everyone else out, thinking you have to handle everything on your own. Whatever happened back there tonight upset you, and I’ll be damned if you’re going alone tomorrow.”
His words made her chest tighten. The angry tone didn’t matter; she heard the concern and sincerity in his voice. She swallowed against the sudden pressure in her throat. “I’m not sure when I’ll go. Probably in the morning.” But she didn’t want him to be there to see it.
“I’ll drive you over and stay in the damn truck if that’s what you want.”
“You don’t have to—” She broke off at the dangerous look on his face. If she kept refusing his help, she might inadvertently push him away entirely. “All right. Thank you.”
A sardonic smile tilted his lips, still swollen and shiny from kissing her. “You’re welcome.” He turned and headed for the door, giving her a
