Cane groaned into Iris' mouth as her fingers raked down his back. He didn't think he would ever get enough, no matter how much he touched her or how close they were.
It surprised Cane when Iris pulled his hand and placed it over her chest. She let him know that it was okay for him to touch her, which eased his conscience, as he kept replaying what horrendous things he had done to her in the past. He would understand if she pushed him away when the same memory came to her.
But, she didn't.
Iris surprised him time and again, reminding him how strong she was in her mind and heart to find it in herself to forgive him and move past the darkest parts of her life, while Cane was still struggling with the demons of his past.
