He wasn't sure he wanted to hear what was next. If she confessed to the same longings, then, right now, they were both in a heap of trouble. She shrugged again. "Lately, I don't know, I can't really explain it, but I've been feeling like something's missing. Like I'm happy with what I've got, but I want more anyway." Gavin shuddered at her words, all too aware that he'd described his own feelings in much the same way. He tried to appear calm and interested but unaffected by her words. "That's okay, Lee," he said carefully. "We're all human. It's in our nature to want more." "I know," she said, the sound so forlorn that he dragged her back into his embrace. He couldn't sit here and do nothing when the woman most important to his wife was hurting so much. No way was he admitting that he needed to hold her as much as she needed to be held. He rocked them both gently as she gave in to the tears she'd been trying to hold back. She clung to him then, a gentle soul seeking warmth from the storm of her own confused emotions.
