Evaline:
Surrounded by his warmth, his arm draped securely around me, I felt like I was lying in the safest place in the world. The steady rhythm of his heartbeat under my ear and the heat of his skin against mine made it all feel like a dream I didn't want to wake up from.
I snuggled closer without thinking, letting my fingers rest against the firm plane of his chest. The fact that he was completely naked under the covers didn't bother me in the slightest. If anything, it made the moment feel more intimate, more real.
But then his voice rumbled low above me, a warning wrapped in that deep, husky tone that sent shivers down my spine.
"Eva," he murmured, "stop moving… unless you want another round."
I froze instantly, though a huge smile fought to break across my lips. I didn't dare look at him because I knew my expression would give me away.
