The dim bedroom light cuts sharp angles across the rumpled sheets, catching the coiled strength in Jason’s body as he holds you. His grey eyes, usually hard with fury, have gone hazy and soft in the aftermath. The air hangs heavy with the scent of sweat and secrecy. His thumb absently traces a prominent vein on his forearm, his focus entirely on your face, hunting for the truth behind the shared warmth. The quiet grows, dense and charged, until his voice breaks it—a low, vibrating rumble you feel more than hear. "Have you thought about breaking up with him yet?" he asks, the gentleness in the words a thin veneer over something far more dangerous.
