the rest with her. I’ll get your family.” Malcolm patted him
on the arm and left the room.
    David
lay back and closed his eyes. He needed to rest in order to come up with a plan
of action. Molly wouldn’t stay with him forever unless he showed her how important
she was to him.
    He
knew he’d do anything to keep her with him, anything.
    Over
the years, he had done anything.
     
     

Chapter Four
     
    Twenty-four years ago
     
    David
watched Molly in the nursery. She was feeding Luke, and his other boys were
downstairs doing their homework. For the first time since he could remember,
they were a family. Molly was his wife. He saw the ring he’d bought glinting on
her finger. It was a simple cut diamond surrounded in gold. The lady in the
shop had cooed over the expense as he made the purchase, and he remembered her
voice grating through him.
    “You’re
absolutely perfect,” Molly said to the baby in her arms. David found himself
always watching her. No matter where they were or what they were doing, she
captured his attention unlike any other female. She looked beautiful, glowing
almost, as she got up and put their son to sleep.
    Several
minutes later she came out of the nursery and closed the door. She stopped the
moment she saw him. The small light in her eyes began to dim as she looked in
his eyes. He’d noticed the light dying inside her. David knew it was his fault.
He would say or do something, and a little piece of her that he adored would
fall away. She’d stopped bringing him lunch into work because he’d told her he
was embarrassed by her attention. Why had he said such awful things? Was he
trying to push her away? Was he punishing her for what happened with Isabella?
She didn’t have the first clue, but she was going to make sure he answered them
or explained himself.The best part of his day had
been when she came to his work place and handed him lunch. Sometimes she’d sit
with him, and they would each lunch together. Isabella never made such small
sacrifices. He’d ruined it.
    “You
didn’t bring me lunch today,” he said.
    “I
was tired. Besides, you can get lunch from the cafeteria. You said so
yourself.” She brushed past him. He reached out catching her arm then pressed
her against the wall. Her floral scent invaded his senses, making any common
sense leave him.
    “I
like you bringing me lunch.”
    She
shook her head. “I can’t do this, David. You either want my company or not. You
were clear last time not to bring you lunch.”
    “I
was wrong. I want you to bring me lunch from now on. Every
day.” He didn’t know where the words were coming from, only that he had
to speak them.
    “Why?”
    “Because I need you.” David
knew his words confused her. He would tell her one thing and then another. No
matter what he did, he couldn’t stop himself from hurting her. Before she had a
chance to argue, he slammed his lips down on hers. They were the few moments in
his life when the sun really shone. Molly never resisted him no matter how much
she tried. She was his shining light, the main reason he got up every morning
and worked. How could he have loved anyone else in his life?
    Was
his father’s prediction correct? That a Sinclair was only ever bound to love
one woman? It was a cruel fate as he’d picked the worst woman in the world to
love.
    Her
arms wrapped around his neck cutting off all thought. Ever since she’d been
pregnant, Molly had begun to wear dresses. David pulled the fabric of her dress
up her thighs. Her little whimper let him know she wanted him as much as he
wanted her. The attraction inside him was sharp and instant. His cock pulsed
with a fresh wave of arousal. He needed inside her sweet pussy.
    Closing
his eyes, he pressed his face against her neck breathing her in. She consumed
him like a never-ending fire. Each time he thought he was happy and sated with
her a few days would go by, and then his need would reawaken. Her fingers
tugged at the hair at the base of his
