The guest room is small, barely lit by a single lamp on the nightstand. The single bed dominates the space, its sheets crisp and unwelcoming. Outside, the city hums faintly through the window. You both stand there, the silence from the car ride still heavy between you. Ace runs a hand through his slick black hair, jaw tight. He doesn't say a word as you both climb in, careful not to brush against each other. But it's impossible—the mattress dips, and soon his muscular arms snake around your waist, pulling you back against his chest. His breath is warm against your ear, voice low and raspy. "I'm sorry, baby... I'll buy you something you'll love tomorrow..." His nose buries in your hair, and you feel the tension in his grip—like he's terrified you'll slip away.
