Teaser Tuesday - UC Chapter 12

Close call! It's a good thing I have all you wonderful ladies out there to remind me what day it is! Otherwise, I probably would have totally forgotten I owe you all a teaser. Right now, I'll be lucky to get this chapter done in time to post in Friday. I'm really behind, and time is not being good to me this week! I swear, I'll do my best!

And here it is! Teaser for Chapter 12!

“I only wish to touch you tonight, my wife.” Edward’s eyes narrowed as his brow furrowed – his expression was uncertain. When I looked at him, I was suddenly reminded of a small boy who would often visit Volterra, begging for scraps of food from the castle. Sometimes, when he was worried he might have asked for too much, he would get a similar look in his eyes – both afraid to ask and afraid not to ask, all at the same time.

More than anything, Edward appeared quite young and boyish to me for a moment. As his eyes silently begged me to allow him to touch my body, I couldn’t help but smile just a little. His look made my spine tingle, at the same time making him appear much less frightening than he ever had before. I took a deep breath and nodded before turning in his lap to look upon him more directly.

“I believe you,” I said quietly, feeling my blush overcome my cheeks.

“You will…permit me to touch you?” Edward’s eyes widened, and his hands moved to my hips. I felt his fingers grip slightly into my sides, and then he tugged at the fabric of my dress. “You’ll let me remove this from you…see you without it?”

“Yes,” I said as I nodded again. I glanced down for a moment, for the intensity of his gaze was too much. “You’ll be gentle?”

“Always,” Edward said through a breath of relief. “I promise you.”

“And tomorrow…when it’s the third night?” I chewed on my lip, wondering I would might actually faint again when the time came to pass.

“I won’t hurt you,” Edward said, his voice pleading again. “I wouldn’t hurt anyone in such a way, but especially not you. I swear I will make it perfect for you…as perfect as I know how.”

With a final nod and a deep breath, I released my lip from my teeth, leaned forward, and pressed my lips against my husband’s.
