Violent Ends (The Denton Family Legacy 5)

Gabriel told them both they had to make this real.

No chance of an annulment.

This wasn’t how he wanted their first time to go.

He loved this woman more than anything else in the world, and at the first chance, he was going to hurt Maddox.

“You don’t have to be afraid. I’m not going to bite.”

She turned toward him. “I’m not afraid.”

“So you’re not thinking of ways to kill me?”

She chuckled. “No, not a chance.”

He got to his feet and walked toward her. He pushed some of her hair out of the way and stared down at her neck. There wasn’t much bruising, but there were some marks if you looked closely enough.

His father had wrapped his fingers around her neck and started to choke her, and it pissed him off.

Leaning forward, he grazed his lips against her flesh and she left out a little whimper.

“We can stop this at any time. We don’t have to have sex.”

“But what about, you know, the annulment?”

“I don’t give a fuck about it. I’m not going to force you to give me something you don’t want to give.” He pulled back, cupping her cheek, staring into her eyes. “I love you, Emma. That is never going to change. I won’t do anything you don’t want to do.” He brushed his lips against hers. “So you can do whatever you want. We can talk about it if you’re asked questions.”

He watched as she laughed.

“What about you?” she asked. “Are you injured?”

“Babe, something you should know about men, we don’t exactly care about what position we’re in if we’re going to get laid.”

“So you want to have sex?”

“I want to have sex if you do. I want you to want me, Emma.”

He stared into her eyes, letting her see his desire for her. How much he wanted her and not because she was under some strict instruction to fuck him.

She placed her hands on his chest.

So far, he was winning.

“I want to. I want to have sex with you.” She smiled. “I sound so lame.” She tilted her head back. “Gideon, fuck me.”

He gripped the back of her head, staring down at her mouth. Yes, he was in pain, but right now, he wouldn’t be anywhere else.

Slamming his lips down on hers, he took possession of her, feeling her melt against him. Her body softened as he ravished her mouth. His cock was already rock-hard, but whenever he was with her, that’s how he felt.

Always ready.

Always hard.

Wanting her.

Aching for more.

Hungry for her.
