His chest was pressed firmly against my back, one strong arm draped over my waist with his palm spread possessively across my stomach. His breath was warm and even against the nape of my neck. Sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains, casting soft golden patterns across the rumpled sheets.

No racing heart. No imme
