Passion Shields Series: Could she dare to call his bluff? #MidWeekTease from Secrets #MWTease

Welcome back to Mid-Week Tease hosted by Sandra Bunino in which we share teasers from our work-in-progress or published book.

Today, I'm bringing you a teaser from Secrets, (Passion Shields, book 2). This is a continuation of Benjamin and Selina's story. In this scene, Selina isn't happy with Benjamin. But is she actually going to defy him?

Swinging her legs over to her side of the bed, she prepared to stand.

"Stay right there," Ben said in a firm deep voice. Despite the calmness to his words, she didn't miss the order.

Instinctively, traitorously, her body stilled, an almost natural response to his command, masking the weeks of training it had taken to achieve. Her mind rebelled, her anger still riding her blood with each beat of her heart.

Last night she'd fallen into bed exhausted, barely able to string together two words in a sentence. Ben had seen how tired she'd been. He knew how much she needed today's play, damn it! A little warning would've been nice for starters.

Lifting her head, she glared at him, her obedience tottering on razor thin wires.

"What are you doing?" he asked, the warning in his cool voice apparent.

In a heartbeat his smile faded, his lips flattened, the grey of his eyes marbling, the muscles of his arms bunching. He held her defiant gaze and raised it, like in a poker game, challenging her to take it one step further into outright disobedience.

Could she dare to call his bluff?

Her body is his to command, her heart his to win.

Selina Moss bared her body to her husband and allowed him to see her and touch her like no one else has ever done. When a member of the family visits, she realizes there is still so much about her husband she doesn't know.

Benjamin's remorse about his family history drives his actions. Selina is his present and he'll do whatever it takes to protect her from being contaminated by his past, including revealing the shame that burns his soul.

But for Selina, finding out about Benjamin's past means investing emotionally in a man who's only going to walk away once their temporary arrangement comes to an end. Is she ready to bare her heart to him along with the secrets of their past?
