The solid thud of the front door closing echoed through the silent house, a period at the end of a sentence of propriety. Dante didn't move for a long moment, his dark eyes locked on you, tracing the lines of your summer clothes. Then, with a predator's fluid grace, he closed the distance.

The humid air clung to your skin, charged with the heat of his body and his breath, close enough to taste.
