Illicit Craving (Bend to My Will #5)
“As soon as she said away, Jacob had ceased all play. When he carried her from the table, relief swept through her, as if a burden had been lifted.
She was grateful that Jacob didn’t demand an explanation, but seemed to understand. Tears filled Vivienne’s eyes and rolled down her cheeks, yet she was not sad. Exhilaration filled her, followed by a variety of emotions. She laughed for no reason, as if she were of unstable mind. If Jacob abandoned her, she wouldn’t be able to tolerate it.

Jacob stroked her hair, tenderly, as if he knew what had happened. Vivienne was in a mental fog, and she clung to him, waiting for the volatility of her emotions to pass.MoreLess
