Penetrate (The Portals of Time book 1)
“The duke’s statement sent a shard of agonizing pain through her chest. For a fraction of time, Ainslee didn’t think her heart could absorb it and continue beating. Nothing had ever hurt this badly. Ever.
She dropped her gaze to the floor beneath her, and fought waves of misery that brought overwhelming sobs with them. She shook visibly. She hated that. The duke’s arms flexed about her. She would have flung them off if she had any chance of success. The way he’d enwrapped her made everythi...ng so much worse. His arms were looped just beneath her breasts, holding her so closely he probably experienced every thump of her heart against his forearms. Each one carried anguish. She couldn’t escape any of this, and it just kept getting worse. She started crying. Absolutely nothing halted it. The floor beneath her blurred. A tear slipped down her cheek. Another. They started dripping off her cheeks, and each one felt like it scalded.
