Viona's POV
I didn't know what kind of sultry devil had possessed me to say something like that. But hearing him say he devoted himself to my life somehow made me believe I could trust him with my darker desires.
Let's just say those books I read had corrupted me. Still, I felt like he would be a good partner to explore all those gritty fantasies that had been silenced in my mind for so long.
Yeah… he would make a good partner for that.
Love? I used to believe in it like a religion. And what did I get? Ultimate betrayal.
So I shut every door to that feeling until my kids were born.
Right… Reece was afraid my love would be split and divided again. But this man, now examining my bare shoulder like a perverted doctor, wasn't demanding love from me. Wasn't that a good thing?
