Excerpt
“You can take whatever you need from me. All I have is yours.” Theo spoke softly with no hint of his normally cocky attitude.
“When did you become the gentleman?”
“You miss the rogue? Hold on, I’ll get him.”
“I do love a good rake. One who can take me in his arms and….”
He did just that.
I almost squealed in surprise but his lips met mine, swallowing the sound before it could escape. This was what I’d been hoping for. Now that we were alone. Sort of. He carried me over to the porch of an abandoned home and set me down roughly on the half wall. Pulling back long enough to pierce me with his gorgeous eyes, Theo said something that sounded like “too much clothes,” but it was garbled in a possessive growl. He spread my knees apart and filled the gap with his body. Arms wrapped around me, pulling me into his tight chest. He rooted around the sensitive spots on my neck until he found his home. The same spot he’d pierced before was again his. Teeth biting into my flesh might normally make me cry out in pain but this had me melting against the firmness of his body.

“Then I’d have nothing to wear.”
“And that’s a problem… why?”
“Marcel would get a free show…”
“Good point. No one see’s my goods but me.” He finally removed the belt and yanked up my tunic over my head. Momentarily victorious, he frowned seeing the under corset I wore, but that disappointment did not hold for long. “How many damn buttons does that thing have?”
I laughed. “At least it’s not a lace up.”
Theo grumbled for a moment and dove at the buttons.
“Theo?” A strange voice called from behind him. A girl by the sound of it though I couldn’t see with his body taking up all my view.
