Chapter 134 Fierce And Gentle

If it had been up to Beau, he would’ve left the opera at intermission. Mia looked absolutely stunning in the new dress he’d gotten her. She had no idea he’d actually left work early to go shopping to pick it out himself. From the diamond earrings to her heels, he’d picked every item, thinking of her the whole time. As excited as he’d been to see her in the gown, imagining taking it off of her had been his primary vision.
As he’d sat there, watching her so enthralled by the love story before her, it was all he could do to keep his hands off of her. His heart had been pounding in his chest, his breathing staggered, as he took her in. She was even more beautiful than the well-known lead actress on the stage below them. Beau had never seen a woman more gorgeous than the one sitting next to him.
As aroused as he was by her, always, other thoughts had come to mind as he waited for the opera to end. Mia was more than just a beautiful face. She was kind, loving, caring, intelligent, everything he’d ever wanted in a woman. He longed to make her his—forever. He knew the thought was premature; they hadn’t even known each other that long. But the fact that he couldn’t have her, not solely, not now, encouraged the thought. He’d have to find a way to get Mia to be his, and only his.
