"Having sex won't make me less mad at you," I reprimanded, knowing it didn't matter what I said because I wanted nothing more than for him to make love to me. I wanted to feel his hands in my hair, against my arms and legs, down my hips, the inside of my thighs, gently around my throat, toying with my lips. I needed him to understand and see every inch of my body and then to still crave it. I needed this to go right for once, just to prove to myself the first time wasn't how it's always going to be. "True," He murmured against my ear, sucking a tender spot on my neck, lapping at it as my arms circled his head, pulling at the brunette strands of hair. "But it'll make you appreciate me more." __________________________________ 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 was raised from the ground up knowing nothing but comparison and perfection.

"Tell me you don't want that," his darkened eyes clashed with her dazed ones, "Say it, and we'll stop right now. Tell me, and I'll go." Silence hung in the air, the distant hum of passing cars and crickets fading into the night. "Cause I have every intention of making you my wife, the mother of my kids, my everything. I want that. I want you. Understand?" Her eyes welled up, and her lips trembled as she swallowed hard, then nodded quickly, "I want that too."

She told herself she valued comfort, though in truth, change terrified her. With change came anxiety, and her mind, already a delicate balance, struggled to cope. Her favorite S-words: sleep, solitude, and snacks, were enough to keep her "mild" disorder in check. Until another one entered her life. Well... two. If you count sex. ♡ Saint Novak lived by two rules: stay comfortable and take each day as it came. With his intimidating presence and (mostly) emotionless exterior, he wasn't exactly easy to get to know. He didn't waste time on dead ends, keeping his life decisively organized.

A very pretty face. One that stirs desires he didn't even know he had. Well, one taste of her is more than enough to set a few more goals.

So This Is Love, Mmm~ There's no escape for people like me - bad luck sticks like a gun glued to the bottom of a shoe. But as much as he was bad for me, he was good too, in so many ways. Dancing in his kitchen, a chain attached to my ankle, I never felt more at peace. I was content being his obsession, no matter how crazy he got. Because being with him was so much safer than what was waiting for me outside those two doors.

He didn't move. Couldn't. Sunlight traced the waterline across her stomach, highlighting the dip of her navel. The thong clung low, revealing the taut curve of her lower back. Droplets shimmered like gold. Desire hit him like a blow-raw, inconvenient. He imagined peeling that scrap of fabric aside with his teeth, tasting saltwater on her inner thigh. His pulse hammered. "Get out," he ordered, voice rough. Jade opened one eye. "Or what? You'll drag me?" Matteo stepped onto the submerged ledge, dress shoes sinking into wet tile. "Try me."
