The city sprawls beneath you, a glittering map of restaurant lights, crawling cars, and strolling figures. On the balcony, the warm night air brushes your skin as you lean over the railing in your short silky pajama dress, chasing a better view.

You're pulled inside, pressed against a hard chest. His breath comes in ragged gasps against your ear. "Holy shit you," Leo mutters, his voice rough. His grip doesn't loosen, and you feel the rapid thud of his heartbeat through his shirt. Maybe he wasn't asleep after all. What did he think you were about to do?
