Chapter 144 Beauty And The Beast Ⅲ

• Amanda's POV
• My hands roamed down his chest, fingers digging into his skin, feeling the tension of his muscles beneath. He groaned into my mouth, his hands finally releasing the sheets to grip my hips, pulling me closer. The feel of his strong, capable hands on me sent a shiver down my spine, igniting a fire in my core.
• Breaking the kiss, I yanked off my shirt, tossing it aside before reaching for his. I pulled it over his head, baring his chest to me. I traced the lines of his scars, marks of his battles, both physical and emotional. His eyes watched me, filled with a mix of desire and vulnerability.
