His Wicked Obsession (Archer and Virginia) novel Chapter 115

The damp patch had spread from his thigh to a much more sensitive area. The cold, wet sensation, combined with her unconscious seductiveness, was absolute torture.

The veins on the back of his hand popped as he gripped the armrest of the sofa.

It was as if something had ambushed his mind...

Images from a long time ago suddenly came rushing back.

It was six years ago, on a morning shortly after their wedding. In the aftermath of their passion, her clothes had been torn to shreds, leaving her with no choice but to throw on his plain white dress shirt.

The oversized shirt hung loosely off her frame, doing a terrible job of hiding the stunning curves beneath.

He had leaned down to kiss her temple. She had let out a soft hum, her delicate, slender fingers unconsciously trailing across his chest...

The memory hit him with staggering force. Archer furrowed his brows, his gaze growing increasingly intense, swirling with a mix of dark emotions.

Swallowing hard, he forced himself to look away and stand up.

He took two steps back, putting some much-needed distance between him and the woman on the couch.

Virginia remained curled up on the sofa. The straps of her black gown had slid halfway down her arms, exposing elegant collarbones and luminous skin that rose and fell rapidly with her ragged breaths.

Frantic for relief, she tugged at her dress, clinging to her last shred of sanity as she bit down hard on her lip and gripped the sofa cushions tightly.

Her knuckles were white from the strain.

Looking at her sweat-dampened hair, Archer took a deep breath, marched into the bedroom, and grabbed a thick duvet.

Without a second of hesitation, he unfurled it and wrapped it securely around her.

Arms, shoulders, legs—completely swaddled, leaving not an inch of skin exposed.

Cocooned in the heavy blanket, the burning emptiness inside her had nowhere to go, forcing out a soft, desperate whimper.

"Don't move."

Archer's voice was impossibly deep and rough as gravel.
