Shadows and Sinners | A Striker x Reader Story

Attracted

When two souls connect, certain energy develops. It feels almost as though lightning is readying to strike, but never does. That is how I felt when Striker finally pulled back, breaking the kiss. With my hands on his chest, I looked up into his neon gaze, still feeling a bit breathless. 

"Did you miss me that much?" I asked playfully, surprised that I could even form the words. 

Bending his head, he inhaled the scent of lavender that always seemed to cling to me as he nuzzled my neck. The affectionate gesture took my breath away yet again. When he replied in a husky tone that reminded me of sex and delicious sin, I wanted to melt in his arms, "I missed you more than I thought possible."

Every rational part of my brain was telling me this was not a good idea. But every other part of me was attracted to him like a magnet. I let my senses open, feeling for his natural energy. I had a gift for this but could feel no malice from the handsome imp.

I was brought back to reality as Striker softly nipped my neck, drawing a gasp from my lips. He chuckled at my reaction, saying in the same husky tone, "I've thought about this moment since I left."
