Chapter 197 Terrible

I refused to blink, refused to let the tears escape tonight. I’d cried enough and if I let one tear escape, the dam would break free and I’d show Chance a side of me he’s never seen. There was something about this moment that I craved, that I had wanted with Shane. Max gave me an ounce of it when I wanted a pound. It hadn’t been enough. It felt like I’d gotten a sip of water in a dry desert and I was dying of thirst.
My heart was weak from the night before, the need to have someone care for me stopped the words from coming out. He released my arm and I dropped it to my side as he fell to his knees in front of me. I stared down at him as I watched him. I waited with baited breath until gray eyes peered up at me. Leaning forward, his lips caressed each ugly bruise and I inhaled sharply when he used his hand to move my leg. My legs opened for him. He didn’t have to be a wolf to smell my arousal.
I could hear Korra growling at the back of my mind but I didn’t pay her any mind. Chance wouldn’t do anything sexual unless I permitted him to, but I couldn’t tear my gaze away from where his lips danced along the sensitive skin of my inner thigh. Looking down my nose, past my breasts to where he sat obediently between my legs soothed me in a way, only he knew it could.
