shirt before I even knew that’s what I wanted all along.”
Bo cupped her cheek and rubbed his thumb over her soft chin. “Think I got some kinda ESP?”
“I think you know me,” she said, her eyes glistening again. “Wish I knew you that well.”
“You could.”
She shook her head and looked away. “No point. I’m not stayin’.”
He pulled his hand away and curled his fingers tightly. “Jesus, you sure know where to twist that knife.”
Shanna blinked. “I never led you on.”
“I know. But I sure wanted you to. You could have used me all up and I wouldn’t have cared.”
“Why?”
“You don’t know?”
She shook her head then turned her head aside. “I think I really do want to go home now.”

Four Sworn
Anger blazed inside him. And fear. She might slip away from him tonight, but not before she understood just how deep it went with him. “You’re a coward, Shanna Davies . You had your chance to back out, but it’s too late now. I have things I want to tell you. Things I have to do to you. With you tied up like a turkey, I can have you any way I want.”
Her gaze snapped back. “Bo…” she said, her voice rising.
“Yeah, be worried, Shan,” he said, narrowing his gaze and fisting his hand hard in her hair. “It’s gonna be a long, long night.”
A shiver worked its way down her spine, quivering through her, tightening her thighs and her toes.
The slither of fluid from deep inside her didn’t have a thing to do with the hard, angry cowboy hovering over her. Or so she told herself.
She’d seen Bo pissed off a time or two, but never with her. His anger shocked her—she’d hurt him more than she’d ever thought she could. But it also turned her on, and she wondered just how far he’d go to punish her for hurting him.
Bo shifted on the bed, coming up, his hand still wrapped in her hair. Her scalp stung. That’s why tears were in her eyes again.
Damn him anyway for falling in love with her. She knew that’s what it was that drove him. Felt the regret she couldn’t return it deep inside her chest like a heavy knot threatening to choke her.
He tugged her head again then straddled her chest. “You’re gonna take off the edge. ’Cause I have plans for your cunt that don’t include shooting off too soon. Open .” The last word came out raw, rasping.
Shanna opened her mouth to ask him what the hell he was going to do about taking the edge off her lust, but he stuffed his cock into her mouth, muffling her complaint.
She shut her teeth to close him out, but he pinched her nose and she opened wider to gasp and drag air into her lungs. He shoved deeper into her mouth and pinched the sides of her jaws to keep her from biting down.
He may have control of her mouth, but he didn’t have control over her glare, and she put every bit of anger and frustration and hurt into the look she speared him with, but Bo only smiled. Not a happy smile, no. But she felt the satisfaction rolling off him as he dominated her, forcing her to his will.
He leaned a hand against the headboard and bent over her, angling her head to drive his cock deeper.
Stuffed full of musky cock, her dry mouth moistened and she swallowed, then groaned, because she couldn’t help rolling her tongue over the side of his shaft, suctioning harder to pull him deeper. Her pussy clamped hard, the hot ache growing until she knew she’d splinter into a thousand pieces if he ever let her come.

In the meantime, her eyes grew drowsy as she pulled and sucked, strangely comforted by the steady motion, appeased by the fullness sliding into her, the scent of his arousal and sweat, the sight of his hard belly flexing, filling her senses.
Tears leaked again, but this time they were in gratitude. He’d taken away her choice, not allowed her to reject him again, given her something precious to savor.
When his motions quickened, she moaned around
