Chapter 28 His Questions

• Lucas POV
• I trail my finger down the side of her neck, slow and deliberate, feeling her body react to the smallest touch. Her eyes flutter closed for a moment, and I know I’ve gotten inside her head. This is the moment when she’ll start questioning herself, when she’ll start wondering if she’s ready to surrender, even just a little.
• But I don’t push further. Instead, I pull back, watching the confusion flicker across her face again, knowing that I’ve left her wanting more.
