Chapter 59

• NOLAN POV
• I hadn't come tonight expecting to kiss Gwen, much less touch her. I’d come to believe that it could never happen. And yet here I was, listening to her moans echoing in the bedroom, filling my heart with such hope.
• As she came down from the high, I wanted to sink my teeth into her, not simply for the sexual release I was craving but to finally be a part of her. Like joining with her body would fill the emptiness I’d been feeling. But I knew I couldn’t. Not tonight, anyway. I didn’t want intercourse or heat to impact her or the baby, even though the doctor had said everything was fine.
