Chapter 252:
Robert's POV
Damn it! She looked like a creature that didn't belong to this earth, but to the heavens. That contrast between the innocence of her face and the scandalous lingerie she wore was enough to strip me of every last shred of sanity. I strode toward her with predatory steps.
She retreated instinctively until her back hit the cold bathroom door, as if trying to escape the storm she had ignited in my chest.
I closed the distance until there was no space left between us. I lifted her chin with my thumb, forcing her to look directly into my eyes to witness the flames burning within me. "You look like a sin..." I whispered darkly, "one I have no intention of repenting for."
I ran my hand agonizingly slowly over the strings wrapped around her waist, savoring the feel of her soft skin beneath my rough fingers. "Fuck," I groaned, scanning her trembling body. "You're so incredibly sexy... black suits you."
