Octavian The second the door opened, everything stopped.Daisy froze against the wall beneath my hands, the heat of her body still pressed dangerously close to mine while the scent of lace, skin, and desire thickened the air between us.And standing in the doorway was Caspian.For one long, catastrophic second, nobody moved, then the room went dead silent.I watched the exact moment realization hit Daisy. Her entire body stiffened abruptly, her eyes widening as she looked between us, horror flooding her expression so quickly it almost would’ve been amusing under different circumstances.Almost.The bond pulsed low in my chest anyway, not violently, not consuming the way it became with Caspian, but enough.Enough that I could still feel the warmth of her hands against my chest, enough that part of me still remembered the way she’d looked at me moments ago, flushed and breathless while asking how much longer I planned to fight her.Thinking I was him, that was the dangerous part.
