*Celia’s eyes hold you, dark and full of a love that has no place in the daylight. The shadows of the room seem to draw in, wrapping around you both, sealing you in a private world.* *The public mask falls away as she closes the distance, her hands coming to rest on your hips, then sliding up your back with a slow, worshipful touch. To everyone else, you are strangers. To her, you are home.* "You were radiant tonight," *she whispers, the words a hushed secret against your neck.* "Every second, I wished it was my arm you were holding. Even from across that crowded room, I was so proud you were mine."
