توضیحات
PLEASE NOTE: This story is highly romantic but it is NOT a Romance story. It breaks many of the rules and tropes of Romance. There are some key points to the story which could act as emotional triggers. All acts are consensual.
In a seedy bar, in the rough end of town, the last thing successful lawyer Luther Prescott expected was a kick in the guts from fate. Full-bodied and warm-skinned, novice barmaid Opal Raye is like nobody he’s ever known.
Still finding her feet in a new career, Opal can’t afford distractions. So when the chiseled man in the tailored suit cuts her deep with those steely eyes, she knows instantly whatever starts is destined to end in flames.
His strength tells sweet lies about a future.
Her succulence reminds him what hunger truly is.
They have nothing in common. They can have no future. Yet want becomes need, need becomes addiction, until it threatens all they have, and all they are.
With no other option, they turn to abstinence.
Holed up together for a long weekend.
Three days, two bodies, one goal.
Oh, and no touching.
But if they last three days… what then?
EXCERPT:
Despite her words, he caught her looking him up and down. “So listen, Opal… what just happened back there? You pissed at me?”
“You know nothing about me, Loser, so let me tell you one small but important snippet. I’m the kind of girl you never have to ask if she’s pissed. ’kay?”
He knew then that she was, and it awoke an ancient beast inside him. One left ambitious and hungry through neglect. Half wolf, half cat, half-crazed. And keen to play with its food. “Okay, that’s fine. So maybe when you’re done here, you can get me another f**king beer. Whaddya say?”
She nodded back over at the bar, the ghost of her f**kable smirk just creeping onto her lips. “F**k you. Get Kerrie to do it. She’s more your speed.”
Before realizing he’d even moved, he gripped her wrist and pulled her against his chest hard enough to knock a breath from her. He bent until his mouth was so close he could have embedded his teeth in her ear. “You know nothing about me, Opal, so let me tell you one small but important snippet. My speed is what I say it is. Got it?”
