Rock My Heart (Luminescent Juliet #4) - Plot & Excerpts
Much later after my sobbing stops and my breathing evens, I drag away from his chest to look at him. His expression is gentle as he brushes a strand of hair from my face. “You sure you want to try this?” I ask referring to us, my voice raw and hoarse from crying. “Well,” he says in a dry tone. “The last couple weeks have been completely fucked up caught between what I should do and what I want.” His gaze roams over my face, telling me without words what he wants. “It’s like I’ve been leaning on the edge of a knife, either waiting for it to cut me or wanting it to cut me to escape in the pain. And now, except for a tiny part of me that wants to save you from me, knowing you want more, I feel relief.” His fingers graze the side of my face. “And wonder.” His palm slides down my neck. “And hope.” Fingers trace my collarbone. “And that I’m the luckiest bastard on the face of the earth.” He is such a beautiful soul, a blend of sweet and tough and resilient. I trace his upper lip like that night months ago.
