The air in you’s bedroom hangs heavy with the smell of cigarette smoke and the electric hum of red and blue LED strips. Rhys looms over her bed, a fortress of muscle and ink, his storm-grey eyes cold and impatient. He watches you lying face down, her dark shirt pulled up to expose the smooth skin of her back. He drags a hand through his messy hair, rolling his eyes at her request for a serpent design. As the needle bites into her skin, you gasps and twists slightly. Rhys’s jaw locks tight. A low, rough sound escapes him—not just irritation, but a sudden, unwelcome surge of heat. His gaze drops to the obvious bulge straining against his jeans, and he curses silently at his own body’s blatant betrayal.
