does it bother you?” Ryder looked at her breasts again and quickly back to her eyes.
    She huffed and crossed her arms, trying unsuccessfully to cover her cleavage. “Because I don’t feel like an angel. Life has been pretty shitty, and it’s been a living hell. Why are you asking me so many questions?”
    “I find you fascinating.”
    “Yeah, because I have a pussy between my legs and you have a dick between yours. That’s why you think I’m fascinating.”
    “No… well, yes, but that’s not the only reason.” He stood and walked across the room, closing the distance between them. He stared down at her with hunger in his eyes.
    “Then tell me what it is that fascinates you,” she said breathlessly, his masculine scent intoxicated her, causing her to throw caution to the wind.
    Ryder grabbed Seraphina’s hips and pulled her to him. His growing erection pressed into her abdomen. She looked up seductively into his eyes, urging him on. “Everything,” he whispered as he dipped his head and kissed her. “Your blue eyes.” Kisses feathered against her jawline. “Your soft skin.” He caressed her arm with his meaty hand. “Your ass.” His other hand squeezed her backside. “Everything.”
    She moaned softly every time he touched her somewhere new. To think she’d been almost killed not a half an hour before was mind blowing. Never in a million years did she ever think she’d be in the arms of the biggest, sexiest man she’d ever seen in her entire life who also just happened to shift into a bear from time to time.
    Part of her wanted to run and get as far away from the area as she could, but the other part of her wanted to be ravaged by him. Wanted to take up permanent residence in his bed.
    “Seraphina… such a lovely name for a lovely woman. Do you want me to show you how lovely I think you are?”
    “Please,” she whispered.
    Ryder’s arm wrapped around her back; his other arm moved to just behind her knees and scooped her up. Carrying her across the room, he laid her gently on the bed. “I love this dress on you,” he said and started to push the hem up as his hands grazed her thighs. “So feminine.”
    “Really? I hate it. They made me wear it all the time.” She looked away from him as she spoke.
    Touching her chin with his finger, he guided her gaze back to him. “If you hate it, then so do I. Let’s get rid of it.” He pushed it the rest of the way up her body and slipped it over her head. “I’ll burn it for you if you like.”
    “What would I wear if you do that?”
    “Nothing.”
    He pinned her arms above her head with one hand and kissed the hollow of her neck, planting kisses along her throat as he moved back to her mouth. Warm and sensuous, his tongue delved into her mouth and explored.
    Cupping her naked breast, he thumbed her nipple and coaxed it to harden. She threw her head back, pulling away from his kiss. Sucking air through her teeth, she exhaled at the sensation.
    Writhing slightly with pleasure beneath him, her leg wrapped around one of his thighs.
    “What would you like me to do to you?” He looked deeply into her eyes and waited for her response.
    “Whatever you want.”
    “No… I want you to tell me.”
    “Lick me.”
    “Where? Here?” he asked and licked at her jaw.
    “That’s good, but I was thinking a little further south.”
    “I see. Maybe here?” He licked the skin around her nipple before gently nibbling.
    “Getting warmer,” she said in between deep breaths.
    His hand slid down her side and to her thigh. He grabbed her behind her knee and bent her leg, repeating the process with the other leg. He kissed and nibbled at her inner thighs before pushing her legs further apart.
    Ryder lowered his head and blew gently on her sex before exploring the folds of skin with his index finger. He rubbed her clit lightly as she began to buck her hips just a little.
    He slipped a finger into her slick pussy and began to work it in and out before inserting
