The door hit the wall with a bang and stayed open.

Halloran was in the doorway with a folder under his arm and his glasses halfway up his nose.

Cara did not move. Her leg was over Daniel's hip. Daniel's hand was inside her bra. Neither of them said a single word, and the corridor light came in through the open door and lay across the floor in a long yellow stripe, and somewhere behind Halloran a radiator ticked.

Halloran looked at them. He looked for about three seconds, which was a very long t

    The moonlight was a cold, sterile spotlight on the wreckage of their truce. Liam's breathing had just evened out, a deep, rhythmic sound in the quiet room, when Chloe shifted beside him. It wasn't a sleepy cuddle; it was a deliberate, predatory movement. She rolled over, swung a leg over his hips, and straddled him in one fluid, practiced motion. Her hands planted flat on his chest, pinning him to the mattress. He was still soft, sated, but the look in her eyes was a promise that he wouldn't be for long."My turn," she whispered, her voice a low, husky rasp that scraped against his nerves. It wasn't a question. It was a declaration of war.Before he could form a reply, she slid down his body, a sinuous, deliberate movement. She didn't kiss his chest or his stomach. She went straight for him, her mouth engulfing his soft cock with a shocking, wet heat. It wasn't gentle. It was a possessive, claiming act. She sucked him hard, her tongue a firm, insistent pressure against the sensitive u

    The moon was a sliver of bone in the black sky, casting a pale, ethereal glow through the uncurtained window of Liam's bedroom. It painted the room in shades of silver and shadow, turning the familiar, masculine space into a strange, alien landscape. Chloe was asleep, a deep, dreamless sleep that was a stark, physical manifestation of her exhaustion. Her head was on his chest, her hair a dark, unruly halo against his skin, her breathing a soft, even rhythm that was a perfect, symphonic soundtrack to their shared, quiet intimacy.Liam was awake. He had been for a while. He was watching her, a silent, obsessive guardian in the quiet dark. He was a man who had always been defined by his solitude, a man who had been content in his own quiet, orderly world. But lying here, with her in his arms, he felt a strange, unfamiliar sense of peace. He felt complete. He felt whole.But he also felt something else. Something that was a stark, thrilling contrast to the quiet, peaceful intimacy of the

    "Well," she said, her voice a low, husky murmur, the word a soft, exhalation against the sweat-slick skin of his chest. "That's one way to break the ice."Liam let out a short, sharp laugh, a sound of pure, unadulterated release that was more of a choked gasp. It was the first time he had laughed in a week, a real, genuine laugh that came from a place he hadn't known existed. He tightened his arms around her, a reflexive, protective gesture, as if she might suddenly dissolve into the beige, soulless air around them."I think we broke more than the ice," he said, his voice a low, rough rumble that vibrated through her entire body. "I think we broke the wall."She pulled back just enough to look at him, a slow, wicked smile spreading across her face. In the dim, moonlit room, her eyes were dark, fathomless pools, a stark, thrilling contrast to the loud, vibrant personality he had come to know. "Good. I hated that wall. It was a terrible color."He stared at her, a slow, deliberate proce

    The breaking point came on a Friday night. A week of tense, silent cohabitation had taken its toll. They were both on edge, both frustrated, both desperate for a release. Liam had a bottle of whiskey, a cheap, blended stuff he'd picked up at the corner store. Chloe had a bottle of cheap, red wine. They were sitting on opposite ends of the couch, a silent, tense truce in the middle of the living room. The television was on, a mindless, flickering light that was a perfect, symphonic soundtrack to their shared, simmering frustration.He took a sip of his whiskey, the liquid a slow, burning trail down his throat. He could feel her eyes on him, a steady, questioning gaze. He knew what she was thinking. He was thinking it too. This was ridiculous. This was unsustainable. They were two adults, two reasonably attractive adults, trapped in a house together. There had to be a better way."Want some?" he asked, his voice a low, hesitant sound. He held up the bottle, a silent, olive branch.She l

    The lock on the front door was a cheap, flimsy thing, and it sounded it. A metallic, scraping protest, followed by a hollow, disappointing click. Liam pushed the door open and the first thing that hit him was the smell. Not the smell of a home. Not the scent of baking bread or fresh coffee or even the lingering aroma of a previous tenant's life. It was the sterile, chemical stench of industrial cleaner, a desperate attempt to erase the past that had only succeeded in creating a vacuum. It smelled of nothing. It smelled of a mistake.He dropped his duffel bag on the pristine, beige carpet of the living room. The sound was a dull, unimpressive thud, swallowed by the cavernous emptiness of the house. It was a perfect, soulless box. All sharp corners and neutral tones and cheap, laminate flooring. This was supposed to be his sanctuary. His fortress of solitude after a year of backpacking through Southeast Asia, a year of constant noise and chaos and overwhelming humanity. He had paid for

    On Saturday, the cat carrier was a battle.Bracket had worked out, over eight years, exactly what the carrier meant, and he had developed a technique for it which involved going completely boneless and sliding out of Cara's hands at the last second, and it took her eleven minutes and one bleeding scratch to get him in.“You are going to a nice flat,” she told him through the mesh. “There is a radiator.”Bracket said something low and dreadful.She packed a bag. Two bags, in fact, one of which was mostly the cat's things, which she felt slightly embarrassed about and packed anyway. She wrapped the mug in a tea towel and put it in the top of her bag where it would not get broken, and she stood in her hallway with her coat on and looked at her flat and had a moment of feeling extremely stupid, and then picked up the carrier and went out.Daniel met her at the door of his building and took the carrier off her without being asked, and carried it up the stairs, and Bracket howled the whole
