I roll over onto my back, panting.

My hair sticks to my forehead, matted to my skin in sweat. I can smell the salt of it thick in the air, and that soft yet undeniably noticeable scent that can only be described as sex. It clings to the sheets, to my pillows, fogs up my brain in an afterglow that I most definitely shouldn’t be feeling with Gray Eastwood.

Gray’s on his back too, breathing just as hard as I am. When I look over, I see his nostrils flare with each inhale and exhale, his chest rising and falling in deep movements like he’s trying to get his bearings through his breaths.

Yeah. That makes two of us.

Whatever insane, dangerous chemistry existed between us all those months ago when we hooked up at The Silent Hour, it hasn’t gone away.

If anything, it’s only gotten stronger.

Wilder.

More irresistible.

I still feel the press of his fingers on my hips, his blunt nails digging into my skin when his thrusts got hard. I run my fingers over them; small crescent-shaped divots texture my skin, and I can’t help the curl of my toes when I realize he dug in deep enough that I’ll likely have little half-moon scars there, just to prove that he had me again.

I wonder, in this moment of dazed silence where we don’t speak, what the fuck this is all supposed to mean.

What it’s leading to.

Where it will end.

I don’t believe in fate or destiny. I don’t hold out hope that there’s some great karmic plan that shapes our lives. Things just happen—and more often than not, they’re shitty things.

Yet it feels like there should be a reason why Gray continues to be a fixture in my life, especially when we both keep trying so hard to push each other away. I need some explanation for why this man affects me so much, why he holds a key to parts of my soul I thought were locked away for good.

Who gave him that key?

Who gave him the power to make me feel?

The black hole in my chest, the comforting, heavy darkness, is nowhere to be found right now. Instead, I’m intimately aware of the blood rushing through my veins, the sweat drying on my body, the cum dripping down my thigh.

I feel… transformed.

Human.

Alive.

I turn my head a little, taking in Gray’s profile as he lies next to me. In the aftermath of leg-weakening sex, I can admit to myself that he really is fucking gorgeous. Beautiful and hard and masculine. Every line of his face is strong and dominant, from the curve of his jaw to the rise of his cheekbones and the shape of his nose.

His lips are still a little swollen from the way we attacked each other, and I find that I want to kiss him again. Maybe slower this time, deeper. I want to take my time exploring the soft firmness of his mouth now that some of the desperate need has been temporarily sated.

I’m about to lean up onto my elbow and indulge my stupid whims for once when Gray turns his head to look at me too.
