I say Crawl, He CrawlsNEO“Babeee,” Anne kept knocking, the sound getting under my skin. I took a deep breath, then with a soft click, I opened the door. Anne immediately wrapped her arms around me, pulling me into a hug that felt suffocating. I could feel eyes boring into the back of my head.“I missed you so much,” she said, attempting to kiss me, but I turned away, giving her my cheek instead.“You didn’t bother to call me.” She moved inside, eyes scanning the room before landing on Daniel, who was leaning against the wall with the perfect poker face.How did he do that? One minute he was expressive, the next completely unreadable.Anne’s eyebrows narrowed as she looked from me to him. “Hi, Daniel,” she waved, and he spared her only a quick glance and a tight nod.“I didn’t expect to see you here.” She placed her handbag on the couch like she belonged in the room. I internally rolled my eyes.“Daniel is staying here for a few weeks—security issues. Someone broke into the house,” I

Done PretendingNEO’S POVMy lungs burned like I’d been underwater too long. I twisted out of the hold again, and the sudden absence of Daniel’s arms felt colder than the air between us. I didn't step back. Neither did he.We were chest-to-chest, breathing the same humid pocket of gym air. His sweat dripped onto my collarbone and I felt it slide slowly and hot under my shirt. My pulse hammered under his thumbs from the last choke drill. He hadn’t moved his hands yet. Not really. They were there. Hovering at the sides of my neck like he’s forgotten how to let go.I could smell him, clean soap, salt, something sharper underneath. My shorts were useless; I was hard enough that the fabric pulled tight every time I shifted. I didn't adjust. I wanted him to see it. I wanted him to know he did this.“Again,” he said, voice low and scraped raw.We reset. This time he went behind, his arms locking around my ribs in that bear-hug drill. His chest molded to my back. His chin brushed my should

Doing it For GodDANIELI woke to Neo curled against me on the bedroom couch, his body barely fitting against mine. His hand twitched against my arm, tugging me closer in a half-conscious embrace, and his warm breath brushed my chest. I pushed myself up carefully, not wanting to wake him, though every inch of me ached to hold him tighter. How on earth had we ended up here?I remembered him going to bed last night looking like he had just lost a war. I could still feel the memory of his lips on mine, the soft whimpers that had made me lose all sense of reason. I had tried to resist, told myself I could stay professional, stay in control, but I was wrong. Even now, with the tour looming and threats still out there, every protective instinct in me screamed to keep him close.He groaned, mumbling something under his breath before going quiet again. Pushing his hand away slightly, I draped a blanket over him and headed out.Noises from downstairs reached my ear and I peeked down to see wh

Things That Should Stay Buried NEOCold bit into my skin as the Priest assembled all the boys. His stern eyes swept over us one more time before he pushed his glasses up his nose. “Take them away”.Two older men pushed us into a dark room where all kinds of tools were displayed. My eyes widened in shock. “You,” a huge man with muscles called, pointing at me. “Come here.”I stared at him, unblinking, my feet refusing to move. He reached my side in two long strides, his robe flowing behind him. “Did you not hear me?”He reached for my hand and I stepped backward. “Trying to play stubborn? You don’t wanna be purified from all the filth in your useless body?”My pulse pounded in my ear as cold sweat broke out on my forehead. Before I could blink, he closed his fingers around my arm and started dragging me forward.“No…No,” I screamed at the top of my voice as the other boys looked away.‘Neo….Neo….’A faint voice called and my body shook slightly before my eyes shot open. My eyes dart

Dead To MeNEOI stepped out to Vivian hovering around the washroom door like she was looking for something. “What is it, Vivian? Can’t I have some alone time again?” I said, struggling to keep my voice as composed as possible. Deep down, my skin was on fire from how close Daniel was and I could still feel his fingers on my wrists. The ghost of his grip made my pulse jump every time I moved.The door creaked behind me, his presence already crawling under my skin before I could turn. Vivian raised a brow, eyes narrowing at me before looking past my shoulder.He stood beside me, face straight, looking as put together as he could be while I was feeling inside. “Didn't know you two were that close.” The way she said it made heat rise to my cheeks and neck, and I quickly changed the topic before she could probe.“What do you want?” I asked.“Someone insisted on seeing you,” she sighed, tucking imaginary hair behind her ears. “He won’t leave until he sees you.”For Vivian to come looking
