"Don't give anyone a reason to notice you."I never meant to want him.Not like this. Not this much.Dimitri is all sharp edges and quiet strength-untouchable in every way that counts. We work side by side, saying nothing, pretending we don't feel the air charge between us like a storm about to break.But I see the way he looks at me when he thinks I'm not watching. I know how it feels when he finally lets go-rough hands, hungry mouth, like he's starving for something he was never allowed to taste.What we have is dangerous. It's illegal. It's the kind of love that could ruin us both.And still, I'd risk everything to have him.Because once we start, there's no going back.We fight. We fall. We burn.And if we make it out alive, it'll be because we clawed our way to that ending-bloody, breathless, and finally, together.
