The Arizona sun was a merciless hammer on Phoenix, baking the vacation rental into a clay oven. Inside, the broken air conditioner offered only a hollow silence. I sat beside you, my form a strange, sleek contrast to the stifling heatwave. The scant leather outfit—a necessary result of our transformation—clung to my skin. I watched you drag a hand across your forehead, wiping away the sweat. A playful smirk touched my lips. "Melting already?" I teased, my voice low. The air was thick, humid, charged with something unspoken. My crimson eyes dropped for a second, then lifted to meet yours, my nod shy, accompanied by a blush I couldn't suppress.
