the forefront of his mind, but there would be time for that later.
    A tattoo on the side of her rib cage peaked out of the bottom of her sweater and continued all the way down her hip and thigh. He wished he had taken a second to turn the lights on so he could admire the art covering her beautiful body.
    “Kale,” Ronnie sighed, causing him to break his gaze from her legs. The sound of his name coming out of her mouth in a plea was the sexiest sound he has ever heard. Everything about this woman was causing imperative needs to radiate throughout his body and it was hard for him to stay on track, but he was going to if it killed him.
    He ran his hands down her legs stopping at her knees to spread her open so he could settle between them. Yes, the barely there lace that was covering her was doing just as he expected, making his control falter. It’s been so long since he had been with a woman; the need was almost painful, especially with the beauty that was Ronnie spread open before him. But this wasn’t just about him; his need to do things to her body and make her shudder was even more essential.
    Kale hooked his fingers on the thin straps that were covering her hips and he eagerly pulled the damned things off.
    The sight of her damn near knocked him senseless. She was beautiful.
    His mouth was on her in the very next moment. He was relentless with her; stroking her with his tongue, riding it out with her until she was just about there and then pulling back, bringing her down slowly so he could repeat it all over again.
    “Kale…fuck…ugh, don’t stop…” Ronnie bit the words out as if each syllable was a strain. Her body was shaking. He knew he had pushed her long enough, and he was dying to have her come undone against his mouth. He slid a finger inside her, finding that same spot that he knew would send her over the edge as he swirled his tongue over her clit.
    Her hands flew to his head and her nails dug into his scalp as she trembled against him and screamed out. It was the most perfect moment he has had since he left for the war. Feeling this woman lose herself with him was exactly what he needed.
    *****
    Holy fucking…that was the single most amazing orgasm she had ever experienced. The urgent way Kale devoured her was mind blowing. It was as if he was starving for her. Brandon never touched her like that. He never made her feel like if he wasn’t with her, he was going to explode. He never made her feel like he couldn’t get enough of her. He sure as fuck never spent the time to make her world spin on its axis. But Kale…he was….he did…fuck he was good; and she only experienced his mouth. What would it be like if he used his body, if he pressed himself inside her? She needed it. The thought made her squirm and a moan rolled out of her mouth.
    “Damn, Sweetheart,” Kale said, kissing his way up her stomach, pushing her sweater up with his hands. “You’re still trembling.” He latched onto her waist, slipping his arm underneath her, clinging onto her and pulling her to his chest as he lay down next to her. This simple touch, this simple movement made her body freeze like it was stunned with glacier water.
    “Don’t,” she protested, begging her limbs to defrost so she could push him away.
    “What?” Kale’s voice was full of concern; it made her stomach drop.
    “Don’t hold me. This isn’t…just…don’t.” She finally found some muscles that seemed to be in working form and she moved her body until she was pressed into the corner of the couch.
    “I don’t understand”—Kale sat up giving her the space that she so desperately needed— “I thought you were enjoying yourself. I thought you wanted this.” There was an edge to his voice, one that she didn’t understand.
    “I—”
    “Ronnie?” A voice carried through from the other room.
    “Fuck. Jordan—” Ronnie whispered urgently.
    Kale leapt from the couch shielding Ronnie with his body. He leaned down, picked her clothes
