“Say it again.” His purr-like rumble tickles, creates a vibration through me that makes me laugh. “Please.”
“Since when does a king beg?” I ask, and this flirtatious side of me is new. And so is the way I clench at the sight of his harsh swallow—the delicious way his throat bobs with the action.
He pulls back so I can meet his eyes. See the sincerity in them. “Since the moment I laid eyes on you.”
A blush spreads across my cheeks, and I bite my bottom lip. “Does this mean you’ll stop hurting innocent people?”
“This means my life is yours to command, pretty girl.”
“That’s a hard offer to deny, Mr. Astor…”
“Then don’t.” He lifts me with ease, tucking me against his chest while seating me on his lap. We’re on the floor, his body cradling mine, while those lips kiss from the crown of my head to temple. “Let me love you. Let me be the one you lean on.”
“You’ve hurt my people.”
“And I will make the reparations necessary.” With the tip of two fingers, he nudges my head so were eye to eyes. His lips hover, and I can taste him there. His natural sweetness is a tease to my senses. “Let me spend an eternity making you happy.”
“What will it cost me?”
“Your heart, and in return, I’ll give you all of me.”
THE END FOR NOW. . .

RISQUE (BEAUTIFUL SINNER #5)
8/20/2021
I’m the new KING of London, but it’s her body I crave to conquer.
Her enemies have become my own. Her body is my favorite toy.
We were never supposed to meet, but then there she was across the bar sitting beside my cousin’s newest obsession. A small little beauty with a grin on her sweet lips and a low-cut top meant to tease—to destroy a man’s self-control. She didn’t see me, but I took in every sensual inch while placing a target on her head.
Our paths will cross, and she’ll fight, but I’m a man of my convictions. My vow is unbreakable.
I’ll be back for you, my Venus.
