The next night the station felt even quieter than usual.Maya waited until the last of the crew had closed their bunk doors. Her heart beat steady and hard as she pulled on her mid-layers and stepped into the corridor. The observation dome sat at the far end of the complex, a raised glass structure used for aurora readings and long-range ice scans. Most nights it stayed empty after twenty-two hundred.The door sealed behind her with a soft hiss. Elias was already there.He stood near the curved window, silhouetted against the faint green wash of the aurora outside. When he turned, the look on his face was the same quiet intensity from the night before. No small talk. He crossed the space between them, cupped her face in both hands, and kissed her like he had been thinking about it all day.Maya melted into it. The loneliness of the station, the weeks of careful distance, the constant cold all of it poured into the kiss. His hands slid under her layers and found bare skin. She made a s

The apartment was already warm when the last person arrived.Five of them in total. The living room lights were low. Music played soft enough that no one had to raise their voices. Empty bottles sat on the coffee table. Someone had pulled the big couch cushions onto the floor, turning the space into one wide, open place to fall into.Maya was twenty-one, dark hair falling loose around her shoulders, wearing only an oversized shirt that barely covered her. Lena, nineteen, sat cross-legged in a sports bra and soft shorts, laughing at something one of the guys said. The three guys Jordan, Chris, and Tyler had already lost their shirts. The air smelled like skin and leftover beer and the faint sweetness of weed from earlier.No one announced what was going to happen. It just started.Jordan kissed Maya first. Slow at first, then deeper when she opened her mouth for him. Chris moved behind her and pulled the shirt over her head. Her breasts were full and soft. He cupped them from behind wh

Ava had been the live-in maid for three months. She was twenty-two, petite but with a full ass and soft breasts that her uniform never quite hid. The family treated her politely enough. The son, Nathan, was twenty-three. Tall, quiet, always watching her when he thought she wasn’t looking.That evening the parents were in the living room watching something on the big screen. The volume was loud enough to cover most sounds. Ava was in the dining room clearing the last of the plates when Nathan walked in and closed the door behind him.He didn’t speak at first. He just looked at her. Ava’s hands stilled on the table.“You’ve been walking around this house like you don’t know what you do to me,” he said, voice low.Ava’s pulse jumped. “Nathan… your parents are right there.”He crossed the space between them in three steps. One hand gripped her waist. The other slid up into her hair and closed into a fist, pulling her head back just enough to make her look at him.“I don’t care where the

The house was dark when Ava left her small room at the back of the second floor. The parents’ door was closed. The hallway felt longer than usual. Her heart beat hard against her ribs as she stopped in front of Nathan’s room and pushed the door open without knocking.He was already awake.Nathan sat on the edge of the bed in only his shorts, like he had been waiting. The moment he saw her he stood, crossed the space, and shut the door behind her. One hand locked in her hair. The other gripped her waist.“You came,” he said, voice low and rough.Ava’s answer was barely a whisper. “I couldn’t sleep.”He kissed her hard enough to steal the rest of her words. There was nothing careful in it. He walked her backward until the back of her legs hit the mattress, then turned her around and bent her over the bed. Her nightshirt was pulled up. Her panties were yanked down to her thighs. Nathan’s cock was already out and hard.He rubbed the thick head against her, felt how wet she was, and pushed

The fire had burned lower. Snow lay against Kael’s chest under the rough blanket, her pure white skin warm from his body and the fading heat of the hearth. His fingers moved slowly through her black hair. Outside the wind still whispered through the frozen trees, but inside the cabin the world felt smaller and safer than it had in years. She had almost begun to believe the quiet could last.But it did not.The first sound was a sharp whistle from the tree line. Then came the heavy thud of boots in snow. The door burst open before either of them could rise. Four men in dark cloaks and leather armor filled the small space, swords half-drawn, breath steaming in the cold air that rushed inside.“My prince,” the tallest of them said, bowing his head quickly. “We tracked the smoke. The queen’s hunters are less than a day behind.”Snow froze.Prince.The word landed like ice water. She stared at Kael at the man who had touched her so carefully only hours before and felt the ground shift unde
