We stood chest to chest as Samuel looked deep into my eyes. As though he were pondering a question he couldn’t ask. I thought of asking him what it was but didn’t have the strength. It was taking every ounce of my being to control myself. Never feeling the urge to want to be consumed so deeply! Samuel brushed his fingers against my cheek as he took a step back. I watched as the look in his eyes shifted. As though he were in a business discussion and wouldn’t give an ounce away. “I’ve never met someone that was so in control.” I bit my lip as I looked down at my feet. Unable to take the way he looked at me, that seemed so distant. “I would give anything to have you, trust me!” I wanted to believe the words he spoke, but I had too much doubt. I didn’t lift my head but turned to walk away
