If you’re not—” “It’s not that, I just. . .I just haven’t been taught how to be gentle.” He breathed against my lips, the tip of his tongue darting out to wet my lips. “Well, it’s a good thing I too don’t know what gentility feels like.

Not fear. Something gentler than either. And gentleness, she had learned, was far more dangerous than desire. Because desire you could resist. Fear you could fight. But gentleness had a way of slipping past defenses without permission. She looked down at her notes, pretending indifference, yet found she could still hear him—every word landing with careful precision, never wasted, never rushed. A man comfortable with silence was a man who did not need control to feel powerful. That alone made him different from anyone in her past.

“Be gentle, Gaven. Strength without gentleness is just another kind of cruelty.” “You are the only person I let speak to me this way,” I remind her. “And that is because you know I speak the truth.” I leave without responding, but the words follow me down the corridor, settling somewhere deep and uncomfortable in my chest. Gentle. I don’t know if I’ve ever been that, but for Fern, I might have to learn.

Settling back on my haunches, I watched my fingers disappear in and out of her. And it was the most erotic, most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Only made better by the desperate sounds she was making. If she liked it like this, then Gemma was in for a treat because this was me being gentle. Something I almost never was, even if my name was Gentleman. A gentleman in the streets, that was me. In the bedroom, though?

While Kaze gets bored and moves on to other things, Cyrene can’t seem to get enough of her brother, climbing over him, tumbling down his body, only to be caught by Ancalagon when she could possibly hurt herself. When he purrs at her, she lays her head against him as if hugging him. “He’s so sweet with her,” I say to Zephyr. “He always has been,” she says, smiling at her two oldest children. I begin rubbing my stomach and Zephyr looks at me. “How are you doing?”

I held on to Ryan’s sleeve tightly, and a mix of emotions surged through my being. “I’m sorry. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t be in this mess.” Ryan blinked and looked at me with confusion. “What? I can’t hear you. Come closer.” This time, it was my turn to feel confused. He was already blind. Could he have lost his hearing too? As I leaned in, Ryan suddenly smiled and pecked me on the cheek. “Now that’s the best way to apologize.” I instantly blushed.

I can feel my cheeks flush in red because of embarrassment. “Honey, how are you now? What did you do all day?” he asked in a serious voice but not domineering. Actually, I can still hear the gentleness in his voice. He always use this tone when he is talking to me. Serious but gentle, just like his personality.

Being at the receiving end of his soft side is quite flattering.
