Chapter Five

Close Calls and Closer Bodies

There was something sinful about sneaking through his house, knowing his daughter was just a wall away. Something that made me wetter before he even touched me.

I wasn’t supposed to love it. I wasn’t supposed to crave it.

But I did.

Every whisper of danger, heavy look across the dinner table and phantom graze of his fingers when he passed behind me in the kitchen. Damon knew how to torture without laying a hand on me.

And I was getting addicted to the ache.

I came to him before dinner that night just twenty minutes before the lasagna in the oven finished heating. He’d left his study door cracked open and I took it as an invitation and slipped in silently.

He didn’t look up from his laptop.

“Lock the door.”

The command slid down my spine like a caress.

I turned the lock.

He didn’t say anything else, just pushed back from the desk, spread his knees wide, and patted his thigh.

My throat went dry.

I walked over slowly, eyes locked on his, pulse s

    Chapter SevenHis World, His RulesI didn’t sleep.Not because Damon kept touching me—though he did.It was how he touched me. Like he didn’t know where I ended and he began. Like he was mapping me into memory, studying the way I breathed, the way I sighed, the way my thigh twitched when he dragged his fingertips over my skin.He didn’t speak much. Just watched me.And kissed my shoulder.And rubbed circles into my hipbone.By morning, I wasn’t sure who I was anymore.I sat up in his bed, my hair a mess, my dress discarded somewhere on the floor, his t-shirt stretched over my body.Damon was already awake.He was sitting in the chair by the window, shirtless, wearing only black slacks, a coffee mug balanced in one hand.“You don’t sleep,” I said, rubbing my eyes.“Not well.”“Because of me?”His eyes flicked to mine. “Because I want you more than I should.”I swallowed.The room felt charged again. Like the night had never ended. Like it would never end.“I should go,” I said, though

    Chapter SixUnder the Table, Over the EdgeThe restaurant was too nice for my dress.That’s what I thought the moment we walked in—Damon beside me, Lila on his other side, all three of us bathed in soft lighting and surrounded by the quiet murmur of polished diners.He insisted on taking us out to celebrate Lila’s internship offer.And I—fool that I am—agreed.Because I thought I could sit across from him in public and behave.Because I thought he could keep his hands to himself.I was wrong.From the moment I slid into the booth across from him, I saw the heat in his eyes. The tightness in his jaw. The way his hand balled into a fist in his lap when I crossed my legs.It was going to be a problem.Especially when Lila got up to go to the restroom.“You’re going to behave,” I whispered, picking up my wine.He didn’t blink. “No.”“You can’t—Damon—”His foot nudged mine under the table.Then again. Up. Slow. To my calf.I nearly choked on the wine.“You’re insane.”His voice was like a

    Chapter FourThe Trouble with MorningsI woke to the sound of the shower running. For a split second, I didn’t remember where I was then I looked around.Gray sheets, hardwood floors, leather armchair in the corner, his scent in the air.Damon’s room.I stretched under his covers, completely bare, sore in the best ways possible.The bathroom door cracked open. Steam spilled out. Then came Damon—damp, towel slung low on his hips, chest glistening with his hair slicked back.He froze when he saw me awake, blinking like he hadn’t expected me to still be there.“You stayed.”“Is that a problem?”He shook his head slowly, eyes dark. “No.”I sat up and the sheet fell around my waist. His gaze dropped instantly.“I didn’t hear you get up,” I said.“You looked too peaceful.”“I was wrecked.”“I remember.”He came closer. Sat on the edge of the bed, hand sliding over my bare thigh. “You always sleep naked?”“No.”He raised a brow. “So just for me?”“You make clothes feel… irrelevant.”He leane

    Chapter ThreeDon’t Make Me Regret ThisWe didn’t speak for fifteen minutes.He cleaned me up with a towel from the kitchen drawer like it was just another day—like we hadn’t just completely ruined the sanctity of the breakfast counter.I watched him the whole time. Still seated, tank top wrinkled and breasts bare. He didn’t look me in the eye.“Are you going to pretend that didn’t happen?” I asked softly.He paused, the towel in his hand going still.“No,” he said. “But I should.”I pulled my shirt back into place, tugging it over my chest. My thighs still trembled. “I’m not a child, Damon.”His eyes finally met mine. “You think I don’t know that?”“Then what’s the problem?”He stepped closer, hands braced on the counter beside me, trapping me again without touching.“The problem is you’re not just some woman I hooked up with. You’re Lila’s best friend. You’re barely out of college. You’re—” He looked away, jaw tight. “Off limits.”“Then why did you do it?”His hands balled into fist

    Chapter TwoTell Me to StopI didn’t see him at breakfast.Lila made pancakes, Owen played DJ with some pop playlist, and we all pretended like everything was normal. I laughed where I should’ve, sipped my coffee, and did my best not to let my eyes drift down the hall to the room where Damon had slept.Or didn’t.Because I’d spent half the night imagining him in his bed, thinking about me.The note he’d left was still tucked in the back pocket of my shorts. I’d read it again while brushing my teeth. You should be more careful with how you look at me.It wasn’t a warning. It was a dare.And I didn’t like to lose.—Later that afternoon, Lila and Owen went to the boardwalk. Damon still hadn’t appeared. I told them I was going to hang back and work on my internship essays—which was technically not a lie.I waited until I heard the front door close. Waited another five minutes before slipping out of my room and walking down the stairs, barefoot and braless in a tank that wasn’t made for p
