enough relief to actually relax enough to sleep.
     
    Julian sat beside her and watched her sleep for what seemed like hours. She was so beautiful to him, he wanted to kiss every inch of her face. He felt his erection begin to stir, and he forced himself to walk away from the bed.
     
    He was getting ready to take a shower when there was a knock at the door.
     
    “This is from Ms. Sybille Deville,” his housekeeper said as she handed him a plate.
     
    “Thank you,” he said before dismissing her.
     
    He set the platter down and grinned. Sybille had made him a triple cheeseburger with hand cut steak fries. Just like Heaven, Sybille too was worried about him eating. Since Heaven was resting, he took the opportunity to sit down and eat.
     
    When he was done, he called down to thank Sybille. He also called his cousins to see how everything was going. When he was done talking to them, he called down to the kitchen to have another “chew free” meal created for Heaven.
     
    He had no more than hung up the phone when Heaven woke up. He closed the distance between them and sat next to her.
     
    “How do you feel?” were the first words out of Julian’s mouth. He slid his hand across her cheek.
     
    “My head doesn’t hurt as bad,” she whispered as she tried to sit up.
     
    “No, lie back down.”
     
    “I need to take a bath; I’m all sweaty,” she frowned; she wouldn’t mention that she could still feel Gavin’s grimy hands on her. She could still smell the acrid odor of the cheap cologne on Gavin’s shirt. But most of all, she could still smell a trace of chloroform. Once you inhaled chloroform, you would never forget that smell.
     
    “All right…come on.” He lifted her in his arms and carried her to the bathroom.
     
    “Good thing you work out so much, otherwise the constant carrying might be too much for you.”
     
    He sat her down on the settee and attempted to stand up. Heaven would not let go; instead, she pulled him back down to her. Julian sat next to her as she pulled him closer. With her arms around his neck, she laced her fingers together and pulled his head down to hers.
     
    Slowly, Heaven pressed her lips against his. She loved the feel of his full masculine lips pressed firmly against hers, and pressed even harder, enjoying the cushiony sensation. The softness that pushed back was delicious, and she slipped her tongue into his mouth. She kissed him slowly, exploring his mouth as if she’d never kissed him before. She twirled the hair at the base of his neck as she wrapped her legs around him; slid her other hand down his neck and ran her fingers against his wide chest. She slipped her fingers into his shirt so she could feel his skin; trailed her hand across his pectoral muscles and then down his stomach as she continued their sensual kiss.
     
    Heaven felt her blood igniting as she continued to touch him. She wanted him inside of her more than she wanted to breathe right now as she knew that he alone could take the remnants of Gavin’s touch away.
     
    Julian, on the other hand, was desperately trying to reduce his rabid mind and erection. He knew that he needed to stop the kiss now before it was too late; he would never forgive himself if he ravished her while she was injured.
     
    Slow it down, man! Stop now! Stop! his mind screamed.
     
    With regret, he stopped kissing her and pulled back a little. She tried to pull him back to continue the kiss, but he wouldn’t allow it.
     
    “This is strenuous activity as well,” he told her.
     
    “Kissing?” she raised her brows high.
     
    “Yes.”
     
    “But all I want to do right now is kiss you. For the rest of the night and all of the morning, I only want to kiss you.”
     
    “I know…I want to kiss you just as badly, but we have to wait.”
     
    “I don’t want to wait,” she pouted.
     
    It took every ounce of his control to hold back. He didn’t want to deny her any more than he wanted to deny himself, but he loved her
