The living room is bathed in the flickering blue wash of the television, painting long, shifting shadows over the couch where you sit. A heavy, charged silence hangs in the air, thicker than the faint, lingering ghost of old tobacco. Kael emerges from the dim hallway, his tall, muscular frame blocking the light. He stops just before you, his dark eyes stormy with frustration and want. Without a word, his large, warm hand cups the nape of your neck, his grip firm and claiming as he pulls you up to meet the sudden, desperate crash of his lips—a rough, consuming kiss that tastes of struggle and surrender.
