Excerpt #1:
He stood motionless around her, the heat of his body, his
scent, bathing her as she waited – the broken promise and the reminder of who
her husband had been was dangled before her in that moment, a dream she would
never capture again. He looked like
Joseph, smelled like him, carried the same unspoken power and assurance – but
he was no longer the man she’d believe him to be.
His jaw ticked, and when his sculpted lips finally opened,
his voice brushed against her, seductive as silk, while, at the same time,
sharp as the most lethal of blades.
The words spoken were so slow, so frightfully controlled,
that there was no doubt they were the undeniable truth. “When I married you, and on our wedding
night, I promised you two things, Arianna – that you were mine and that I would
do whatever was necessary to give you everything you could ever want.” His eyes closed as he winced, his face
appearing to battle against pain of the thoughts pounding against his skull. “I have not broken those promises, so do not
break yours. Do not threaten to leave me again.
There is no where on this Earth that you could run, that I would not
hunt you down, find you, and drag you back here, chained if need be, to where you belong.”
His eyes opened.
“You are mine and I will not allow you to leave. While I’m gone, I will leave Connor to watch
over you. He is loyal to me and will
prevent any escape you attempt if you are foolish enough to try. There is no escape from me, Arianna. You WILL
accept what I have done.”
Excerpt
#2:
With his mouth pressed against hers, he demanded, “Tell me
who owns you, Arianna; tell me to whom you belong.”
Her lips parted, her breath stolen by the beat of his body
against hers. A disjointed whisper, she
responded, “You, Joseph…I belong to you.”
A final assault inside her and they both screamed out their
release, the water cascading around them, the steam of its heat coloring their
skin. His forehead fell down on hers
once more when he peeked at her from underneath his water soaked lashes.
“Yes, Arianna – and you must never forget it.”
