Warm skin over taut muscles. The earthy spice of his essence surrounding me. A moan floating through the air. Part of my psyche knows it’s a dream, that Sebastian isn’t spooning me, his hot mouth on my neck as he palms my breasts.

I squirm, pressing my tingling thighs together as I bunch the sheet against my sex. Reality or not, there isn’t an atom of my being that wants to vacate this dream. Especially when reality is hazy, and I’m on fire in Sebastian’s arms, the space between my legs throbbing for his touch.

“Please.” My gasp turns into another moan, and I expect him to wedge a hand between my thighs, slipping a finger down my wet slit to give me sweet, aching relief.

A cold hand shakes my shoulder instead.

“Wake up, my queen.”

That’s not Sebastian’s voice, and it’s definitely not how he’d address me. To him, I’ve always been Novalee, or princess, or even the occasional baby. He’s refused to call me by my title since the day I met him, and if he were to ever use that word, it would drip with scorn.

With a startled gasp, I jerk upright. It’s still dark enough that I can’t see Miles clearly, but the first hint of the morning sky filters through the windows, and I discover him sprawled on his back with one arm flung over his eyes. His chest heaves as he grits his teeth.

“Are you okay?” I ask, unsure of what to do or say.

He doesn’t move, and without thinking, I plant my hand on his chest to get his attention, worried I lashed out in my sleep and accidentally caught him in the face with a flying elbow.

“Don’t,” he says, shoving my hand off of him. Flinging the bed covers back, he hauls his legs over the edge.

I cover my mouth, heartbeat racing at my collarbone. “D-did I hurt you?”

Miles laughs, shaking his head. “Not unless your wet dream was a weapon.” He drags a hand through his short hair. “Though watching you moan…well let’s just say I’m past the point of comfortable.”

A hard swallow, a lick of my lower lip, and I struggle to speak. “What does that mean?”

“It means my cock wants out to play.”

“But you can’t.” My mind goes to the jewelry wardrobe where I hid the key. If he thinks I’m going to hand it over now, he’s mistaken.

“No, I can’t, which is why I’m going to take a cold shower.” He stands, and the gradual light of dawn brings him into full view, tight end and all. He heads toward the bathroom with an undeniable swagger—as if he knows I’m eying his impressive backside. Upset with myself for even noticing, I focus above his waist.

“By the way,” he says, stalling on the threshold and tossing a glance over his shoulder. “It would be very gracious of you to fix me breakfast, since today is my birthday.” A cunning smile follows his request. “I expect your answer then.”

After he disappears into the shower, I flop onto the mattress as fear constricts my throat.
