Just the thought of what he had been about to do made her sick. She pulled away from Elijah’s touch, noticing he was only wearing some boxers. Her gaze ran over him involuntarily, taking in every ridge and ripple of his god-like body, her core throbbed wanting him. The image of him hugging Fiona entered her mind
