Karl came back not a minute later. His eyes burned with an intense lust that made my breath catch in my throat. He raked his heated gaze over my half-naked form in a way that felt like a physical caress, hungrily drinking in every exposed inch of my flushed skin. "What's with that look?" I inquired in a small, anxious voice. The predatory, ravenous expression on his face made me want to simultaneously run for the hills and throw myself shamelessly at his feet in wanton submission. A slow, wicked grin curved Karl's lips as he crawled back on the bed. He caged me in effortlessly, his thick, muscular frame blanketing my own when the hard ridge of his straining erection pressed insistently against the soft skin of my inner thigh. The blatant reminder of his arousal made me shudder.
