She made a whimpering sound, but its definition was unclear even to her, until she realized that her arms had gone around him instinctually, and that she was clutching his back, his shoulders, her hands restless and greedy for the feel of him.

Masculine and carnal, it thrilled and aroused her.”

He braced himself for happiness like he’d never known in his entire life. He watched the door they would come through.”

Women thought he was attractive in that certain kind of way.” “What certain kind of way?” “Wished they could fuck him, but considered him bad news.” “That’s a ‘way’?” “Of course that’s a ‘way.’ ”
