Luna looked around the room at the young pretty girls, wannabe actresses, and saw a few familiar faces.

Nico sauntered around the class, watching the students like a lion stalking a herd of antelope. His thin yoga pants and T-shirt clung to his body, revealing every rippling muscle. Passing by her mat near the front of the class, he knelt and adjusted her posture, placing his hand on her belly to feel her breath, his face inches from hers. Approaching the next student, he touched her shoulder with an eye for perfection, and Luna observed her beam in satisfaction at his attention. All eyes were upon him and vying for his attention—even the men.

After class, Luna was getting ready to leave when Nico stopped her. “Where are you going?”

“Home, I guess,” she said, somewhat indecisively.

“Why don’t you stay and keep me company?”

Skipping the locker room, she collected her things and followed him into his apartment.

He called out from the kitchen, “Would you like a drink?”

“Sure,” she called back. He opened a bottle of wine and they moved to the sofa. Though it was dark, he didn’t turn on any lights; instead, he lit a candle. Opening his laptop, he played around on YouTube, and soon Luna heard a painfully beautiful song in Spanish.

“Do you know this song?” he asked.

“No.” She snuggled close to see the screen.

The video was of Richard Marx on acoustic guitar singing “Ahora Y Siempre,” “Now and Forever.” Nico sang along, his gaze locked with hers and his eyes glowing, the yellow flecks twinkling in the candlelight. Luna only understood a few of the Spanish words, but it didn’t matter. His voice was liquid, and he sang with such passion that her body pulsed with desire. He was so close, she could feel his body heat, and it made her uneasy. Why was he singing this to her? She feared he could sense her struggling with her feelings, but didn’t want to look away and break the connection. After a few minutes, she picked up her glass of wine.

“What’s wrong, Luna?” he asked cryptically.

“Nothing,” she answered, hoping he hadn’t noticed the tears pooling in her eyes.

Nico pressed, “Tell me what you’re thinking.”

Shaking her head, she didn’t answer.

Nico continued probing. “Is everything OK with you and Tyler?”

“Yes, certainly! Why do you ask?”

He continued provoking her. “I don’t think you love him, at least not the way I believe in love. You’re good friends, but there’s no passion. I see it in your eyes.”

Defensively, she said, “That’s not true, Nico. Passion changes over time. Besides, we’ve had this conversation before! I wouldn’t change anything. My relationship with Tyler is loving and intimate.”

Nico rolled his eyes, incensing her. “NO, it’s not hot sex in the back of a truck—like with Olivia.” She was audibly annoyed. “Stop, Nico. Just wait until you’ve been married as long as I have, then let’s see where you are.”

Nico shook his head. “I have awakened your sacral chakra, Luna. I’m afraid you do want more, but Tyler is not giving you want you want—what you need.
