登入Blurb: Desire isn’t polite. It doesn’t knock. It doesn’t wait until you’re ready. It comes like a spark in the dark; unexpected, magnetic, impossible to ignore. This book was written for the readers who crave more… More heat. More tension. More forbidden touches and reckless nights. More moments that make your breath hitch, your pulse race, and your imagination run wild long.
查看更多For a long while, neither of them moved.The rooftop lights hummed softly above them.Mara had a flushed face, while Daniel's breath was unsteady, and the distance between them was dangerous, and fragile.Mara’s back was pressed against the wall, and Daniel’s hands were on her waist, with his fingers spread, holding her as if letting go would undo everything they’d just admitted.He swallowed hard, his chest was rising and his breath came out uneven.“Mara…”. He said.Her name sounded like a confession to him–strained and thick with desire he could no longer hide.She touched his jaw—light, trembling, and tender.“Don’t look at me like you regret it.”His eyes snapped to hers, almost immediately.“Regret it?”A bitter, breathless laugh escaped from him.“I’ve been trying not to do this for months. What I regret is… waiting.”Heat coiled low in her stomach.He brought his forehead to hers, with their noses were brushing, and their breaths still tangled.“I just—” His voice dropped, alm
The rooftop door was shut behind them.Mara did not remember moving.She only remembered the moment her breath got caught and the moment Daniel’s hand finally touched hers.Just a slow, deliberate slide of his fingers along her jaw.“Mara,” he whispered, his voice was rougher now, “you have no idea how long I’ve wanted this.”She did.She had felt it in every lingering glance, every distance he tried to keep, and every moment he looked away from her because looking too much would mean admitting everything.But hearing it—hearing him say it felt like he’d been starving, sent a shiver rolling down her spine.Her hand was pressed lightly against his chest, and he closed his eyes as if feeling the warmth of that simple touch unraveled something inside of him.“You shouldn’t…” she breathed.“I know.”His forehead rested against hers, their breaths were tangled, and their lips were a bit apart.“And I’m done pretending.”The city noise below them was blurred into nothing, and buried under t
Daniel doesn't mean to follow her.He had convinced himself that he needed only air, and space from the storm building inside of him. But the moment Mara slipped out of the apartment and walked down the dim hallway, the quiet click of the door felt like a pull on his ribcage.He found her on the rooftop, leaning against the railing, and the city lights painting gold over her skin.Her dress moved with the wind—soft, and restless, like she couldn’t stand still. Like she was fighting something inside of her just as fiercely as he was.She did not turn when he stepped closer, but her breath trembled.“You followed me,” she whispered.“I did not want to,” he replied, his voice low and rough. “That’s the problem.”Her fingers tightened on the railing. “Then go back downstairs.”He did not move. “You don’t actually want me to.”A long and heavy silence stretched between them. The kind of heat that did not just live under the skin—it ruled it.When she finally looked at him, her eyes were d
The night unfolded slowly, thick with the kind of silence that seemed to weigh on every surface. Mara was awake after the clock had blinked past midnight, and her skin was still humming with the memory of Daniel’s breath against her throat, his fingers at her waist, and the gravity of his restraint holding them both in place.She should have pulled away.He should have stepped back.But instead, they hovered on the edge of something they could no longer pretend wasn’t there.And now—every second felt like she was waiting for that edge to pull her back in.A soft knock broke the silence.Very soft.Just enough to be intentional.Mara sat up quickly, her pulse jumped as she realized–even before opening the door–who was on the other side.Daniel stood there, the dim hallway light was brushing over the tension in his shoulders. His hair was slightly disheveled, his shirt was untucked at the side like he had dragged a hand through it a dozen times trying to breathe, trying to think, and t
The door was shut behind them, and the sound was loud in the quiet guest room. Emily’s breath was trembling in the dark, and her silhouette, a soft curve was glowing against the faint light from the hallway.Jacob gently placed her on the bed, but her hands were trailing up his chest immediately,
He heard the soft pad of bare foot against the hardwood, and the quiet exhale of someone wandering in the dark at the late hour of the night when people are either sleeping or doing something else.Jacob raised his head from the glass of water he had been nursing, his pulse was steady until she
