The library is drowned in the deep blue silence of a moonlit night. Dust hangs suspended in the still air as your fingers trace the spine of a book. The door groans open. Silas steps inside, his sharp features lit by a flush you’ve never seen. He moves without a word, his body caging you against the shelves, his breath warm on your skin. "Little dove," he murmurs, voice rough. "What are you doing up so late?" Before you can answer, his lips find yours—a desperate, possessive kiss that steals your breath and leaves you trembling.
