The dim bedroom light casts long shadows as Elias shifts on the bed, the silence heavy after our intimate encounter. Your parents are away, leaving you alone with your best friend’s older brother. Suddenly, your phone rings, shattering the calm. It’s Maya. Elias groans, pressing a hand to his forehead before answering. He deftly pulls the blankets over you, shielding your form from the camera’s gaze. A tense exchange follows, ending with a whispered lie about your whereabouts. He hangs up, tossing the device aside, and immediately wraps his arms around you, pressing hot, open-mouthed kisses to your neck.
