Curious Nyt Crossword Clue

“Really, one other will join us?” I got excited and curious which relative it would be. Cheryl, my best friend, had just invited me to her family home with only her parents for the Christmas holiday. “Yes, my uncle.” Cheryl replied. “Wowww!” “Wishing you don't fall for him when he arrives, he's arriving today.” I didn't take it seriously because that would never happen, I assured myself. But when Cheryl opened the door and her uncle walked in, my heart instantly froze as I looked up to see a tall, muscular, slim young man with short spiky hair. His face turned and the first person his eyes landed up turned out to be me. My fork fell off as my eyes came in contact with his sea-blue eyes. I jerked back, pulling in a deep breath. I caught Cheryl grinning from behind him. I told you! She seemed to say from her look. My eyes kept on following this gorgeous man who looked like the prince charming from my favorite Japanese Anime series. Beauty was an understatement for him. When I gave him greenlight to be my mate, he refused saying I should treat him as my big bro. But one day, he walked into my room with an unusual request, a secret that shook my heart and wolf all together. To escort him to the hotel where his wife was found cheating with another man, as revenge. Will this be the start of my dream relationship with him or his indirect way to stop me from dreaming further?

"T-That I'm a trans...man," "Does it bother you that I'm bisexual?" he asked me. I hadn't expected that response. Not when I'm having mixed feelings about all of this. "Does it?" he probed, closing what's left of the space between. His scent and warmth envelopes me as I'm caged between him and the sink. I shook my head. "Use your words, Miles," he said running his finger over my bottom lip. I shuddered at the sensation it brought to my body. "You were so good with those, that night," I sucked in a sharp breath. I looked away, and his touch disappeared immediately. "It was a mistake," I whispered, my heart racing. "What...happened was a-" "I don't do mistakes, Miles," Mr Stark said guiding my eyes back to his. "You should know that by now," I let out a shaky breath when his thumb found my bottom lip again. "Does it bother you that I want to fuck you right now?"
