Gabriel took in a deep breath and closed his eyes while thinking about their current situation. It is obvious that Becca wants to feel his touch and he can't deny that he wants to touch her as well. Is there a point in waiting?
However, he can't ignore the emotional baggage he carries. Victoria left deep wounds and Becca is healing them beautifully, but they are not gone yet. Should he take advantage of Becca's innocence? Is it called taking advantage if she wants it as well? Gabriel was not sure.
Becca said that he is the experienced one, but other than Victoria, he never touched any other woman… and he does not remember the last time Victoria was in his embrace because it all went downhill when Steve showed up, more than three years ago and since then he and Victoria were drifting apart. And even before that, the rift between them started shortly after they got married, when Gabriel mentioned kids and Victoria refused to talk about it.
