My Hunger
An Inside Out Novella in Mark's POV
While Chris and Sara have traveled to Paris to avoid the chaos of press and
police after the tragic night we'd shared, I have stayed to face the
reality of what has happened. But there is no peace to be found in
facing the truth, and no truth to be found in the confessions that have
been made and retracted. I am a Master, all about control, and yet right
now, facing great tragedy, I feel as if I have none. With my club and
my relationships of the past in the spotlight, I find sanctuary in the
one place I've promised I will never be again, but cannot seem to
resist. Her arms.

Mark’s POV, speaking to Crystal)
“I didn’t cut and
run, Compton. If I had, I wouldn’t have been on a plane the next morning to
make a trip that gained Riptide a damn good purchase. And when I left the
booth, it wasn’t for the reason you think.”
She presses her
hands to her head and drags her fingers through her hair. “I
just . . . I saw the pain in your eyes when you were talking
about Rebecca. I know you’re hurting, and I don’t know if I made that worse
last night or better . . . and I don’t know what to say or do
now.”
She saw pain in my
eyes? No one sees anything I don’t want them to. But this woman, she sees too
much. She makes me do things I don’t do, and desire things I don’t want to.
“I don’t know what
you need,” she continues, “but I want to help—”
I advance on her
and lift her to the sink, sliding her legs apart and pressing between them. And
now it’s my hands going through her hair, tangling in the silky strands.
Tilting her head, I force her gaze to mine, bringing her mouth a breath from a
kiss I promise myself I won’t claim. “What I need is
for you to keep this nightmare away from my parents until I’m back. That’s
all.”
Her hand closes
around my tie. “I told you I will, and I meant it. Whatever they need, and
whatever you need, is my priority.”
What I need is
her: to taste her, to feel those lips against mine, and that’s exactly what I
do. My mouth closes on hers, my tongue delving deeply, stroking, tasting.
Taking. I need. Oh yes, I do, but that need shifts and changes, turns to
something darker, and more demanding. Suddenly I’m aroused beyond belief, thick
and hard, my cock straining against my zipper, and the burn to be inside her is
almost too intense to bear. It’s consuming. It’s dangerous to my vow to stay
away from women who don’t live my lifestyle.
