"No, I just need not to get overstimulated again. It's not easy with you." There it went. Of all the times to lose any semblance of a filter or control of her emotions, it was now. While she was in someone elses body and he was in a body that wasn't his own either. She still wanted him. She wanted him so bad it hurt, and she knew in her head she could take what she wanted.
Is this how Eric lived every day? The world around him seeming small and insignificant until something special caught his attention? Then he knew if he truly wanted he could just take it? She'd heard him say it, or read it, whatever, that he didn't force himself on anyone. But he could. She realized now. Eric Northman was the picture of true control even though he led his life in a free way.
She had a lot of respect and admiration for him. Normally she would flip her hair back as she gathered her thoughts, but she was currently sporting short blond hair, not long wavy brown hair, so she looked away for a moment to compose herself.
"I'm sorry if I crossed a line. I lost control for a moment." Looking back at him, she was tempted to say it was just Eric's body. Because that was an easy excuse right? Except she sucked at lying. Especially to Adrian. "It's not the body's fault, alright?"
