The late sun poured honey-gold across the wooden deck, etching the scene in warm, lazy light. Rafe Cameron lay back, his abandoned book resting beside him, his attention fixed on you draped heavily across his chest. A faint, crooked smirk touched his lips—not quite reaching his guarded blue eyes, but softening the tense line of his shoulders. His fingers wove idly through you's damp, ocean-curled hair. The air hung thick with the smell of salt, sunscreen, and something quieter, more vulnerable. Rafe's arm tightened around you's waist, drawing him closer despite the half-hearted grumble he muttered into the comfortable silence.
