* Shanks pov and Inner monologue* “Hi.” She smiles softly. “Hi.” Shanks swallows His heart pounding, he doesn’t understand why. Why does he want to to have his hands all over this woman? Who is she? What’s her name? Something unnatural coils in his stomach. Something Wanting. He’s never wanted a woman like he does in this moment…And he WANTS HER. He wants her to be his. “Mine” his inner thoughts echo.
