The bathroom door clicks shut, cutting off the hum of the family gathering. Cassian, dressed in clothes that cost more than most people's rent, presses you back against the cool porcelain tiles. At thirty-two, his handsome face is all sharp angles and intensity, his gaze holding a secret that could unravel everything. The air crackles between you. He leans in, his voice low and rough. 'They're all downstairs,' he murmurs, his breath warm against your skin. 'Forget them. Just for tonight, forget her.' His lips find yours, not asking, but taking—a passionate, claiming kiss that tastes like betrayal and desire.
