Affection

He left to protect me.
He promised to come back.
He didn’t.

It’s been twelve years and I’ve moved on.

Now he’s back. He claims he wants to protect me and my son. He vows he won’t hurt me again. But he’s not the same man I remember. This Daniel Carrington is harsher, colder, and more dangerous.

But I can’t help but feel the old Daniel in each touch and every possessive kiss.

Underneath his hard body, dark stare, and seductive grin, he’s always been my undoing.

Will he walk away from me again, and if he does, will I survive it?
