Chapter 40

• "I mean it," Danica said and turned her back to him. Loney understood that she wanted him to unzip her dress therefore, the rest of his words stuck in his throat. He didn't unzip her immediately. Rather, he held the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head. Danica heard the unbuckling sound of a belt. Her heart thumped. She recalled the last time this happened. She was so drained. She was about to turn around when she felt his hand on her back. Goosebumps cascaded her like waves, as her zip was pulled down.
• His hand slipped inside her dress, he trailed his fingers over her warm body before allowing it to fall completely. He wanted this too but what if she gets so tired and ends up in the hospital again? The mere thought yoked him to worry because he didn't think he could stop halfway. She has become his addiction. 
• Danica's body responded to his touch, just as his body responded to hers.  She felt his hand in her hair, tugging it to the side. He nibbled on her bare neck, his warm lips pressed to her warm skin. Then he nibbled her ear and the back of her neck, losing himself in her feminine scent of freesia and rose.
