“You came back early.”

“I know it was important to you,” he murmurs. “It’s my wedding day. I’m only getting married once, so I may as well be present for it.”

I grin. “Romance at its finest.”

He smirks. “Romance isn’t on my mind. All I could think about was how on this night, I finally get to be inside you. I did what I had to and returned in record time. It was a fuckin’ wedding miracle.”

I snort. “Wedding miracle.”

His big hands lower to my bottom and squeeze. “Feeling forward, are we?”

“This is all mine now,” he murmurs. “All mine.”

“Hmmm. I remember you not wanting anything to do with me.”

“A man can change his mind,” he says, flashing this straight white teeth in a smile before leaning forward and kissing my mouth.

“I find myself liking the position I’ve found myself in,” he says against my mouth. “Husband to one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen.”

My eyes widen. “You sure changed your tune. What happened to me being a spoilt, pampered—”

He shuts me up with another kiss.

When he finally pulls back, leaving me breathless, he says, “You in that dress. Damn. You look fuckin’ perfect. But now I want to see that dress on the floor.”

The heated look he gives me makes me feel a little unsure. He looks like we wants to eat me alive, hunger and possessiveness staring back at me. No man has seen me naked before.

“Ummm.”

“What?” he asks, tilting his head to the side. “Having a change of mind?”

He looks amused. Jerk.

“No it’s not that, well not exactly,” I try and explain. “It’s just that I’ve never… and you have… and I don’t know…”

Fuck. I was the idiot.

I couldn’t explain how I was feeling. I didn’t even know. I wanted him, but this was my first time after all and I felt vulnerable. Out of control. In this moment, I had to look to Dane for instruction. I had to trust that he would take care of me. It was an alien feeling. I’m about to tell him that maybe we can wait until tomorrow night.

“Dane—”

“Olivia, do you trust me?” he asks in a deep rumble, cupping my cheeks with his palms. “Stop thinking so much. I’d never do anything to hurt you.”

“Dane—”

“You have nothing to be shy about,” he says, leaning his forehead against mine. “Nothing. Will you take off your dress and let me see you?”

The urge to flee the room is suddenly tempting.

But then he kisses me again, until my mind is hazy and I lose all rational thought.

Want and need trumps my shyness.

My indecision flees.

Standing up, I swallow hard before I pull down the straps of the dress, letting it fall to the floor, pooling around my ankles. I avoid looking into Dane’s eyes, instead staring above his head as he takes his fill.

“Look at me,” he demands.

Slowly, I lower my gaze.





Chapter Ten




His eyes stay connected with mine instead of on my bared breasts. To be honest, I don’t know which is worst. I’m standing in nothing but white panties, my dress still around my ankles. I want to kick it away, but instead I’m frozen to my spot.

“Beautiful,” he rumbles, his voice thicker and huskier than usual. He holds out his hand to me, and I place my smaller one in his. As I step out of my dress, I notice him now taking in my body. A hand rests on the small of my back as he whispers, “We don’t have to do this tonight, you know. I’ll wait until you’re ready.”

“I’m ready now,” I blurt out. “Just a little shy is all. No one has ever seen me naked.”

“And no one else will,” he says, standing up and lifting me up in his arms like I weight nothing at all. Laying me down on his white sheets he peppers kisses along my jawline, then uses his tongue down my neck.

Holy shit.

My whole body tingles. I think all he has to do is kiss me on the neck and I’ll be ready for him. Squirming a little, Dane pins me down before licking my nipple. My back arches. When his mouth sucks on me, a whimper leaves my lips. Releasing my nipple with a popping sound, he pays attention to my other breast, kissing around it before sucking. My fingers threading through his thick, dark hair, I close my eyes and concentrate on the sensations. I’ve never felt so good in my life. Pulling his mouth away, he starts kissing my stomach as his fingers continue where his lips left off, teasing my nipples with gentle tugs. When his mouth trails down to the edge of my panties, I open my eyes and look at him. He glances up at me as he slides my panties down, then licks his lips. Was he going to? Oh fuck, he was. Spreading my thighs, he dips his head and licks me.
