Author’s POVHe rested his forehead against hers and looked into her eyes while his hand roughly handled her breast.“You are mine, Elena. I don’t want just your body, but your soul, your sighs, your gasps, your moans, and even your fear. It’s all mine.”And he took her lips in his for another passionate kiss.
