The muffled thrum of the party music fades into the background as Damon leans over you, his silhouette cutting against the dim light of the room. His dark eyes scan your naked form, taking in the delicate lines and the blush spreading across your skin. The air is thick with sexual tension and something softer, more vulnerable. With an expression that’s both ironic and captivated, he stills, watching how every slight touch seems to shake you. His lips brush the curve of your neck before he lifts his gaze, catching your tearful, embarrassed stare. Silence hangs heavily between you, broken only by his ragged breath and the inevitable question that rises from his clinical observation of your extreme sensitivity.
