Her thighs clamp around my head.
She cries out, soft and desperate and grinds against my mouth.
Her body knows me now. Craves me.
She comes again, in a deeper tremble this time.
I suck on her clit while she shakes.
Then I pull back, hard and aching.
I don’t fuck her but I jerk off next to her, my hand wrapped tight around my cock, her juices still coating my face.
I come on her back. Quietly. My teeth clenched to keep from groaning her name.
Then I clean her up with her favorite tshirt, the one she says feels like a hug.
I tuck it under her cheek.
Brush the hair from her face.
“Mine,” I whisper.
In the morning, she’ll touch her sore thighs and wonder why her dreams felt so good.
Because her body already knows she belongs to me.

I wake up sticky, sore, and a little dizzy, like I drank too much last night — which I didn’t. All I had was water. Water I could’ve sworn I finished, but now it’s sitting full on my nightstand. Unopened.
My thighs are damp. My shirt’s twisted. My nipples ache.
I press a hand between my legs and freeze.
Wet. Swollen. Sensitive.
I sit up too fast and immediately regret it. The room tips. My head pounds behind my eyes.
“What the hell,” I whisper. “What kind of dream makes you sore?”
I swing my legs off the bed and shuffle to the bathroom, ignoring the mirror like it’s the enemy. I don’t want to look myself in theeye. Not when I’m this disoriented. Not when my body feels like it’s been.. used. Worshiped… fucked.
I clench my thighs and suck in a breath. I need air.
I toss on leggings, a hoodie, and shove my feet into Crocs. My sleep shirt is still crumpled at the foot of the bed — damp in places I don’t want to think about.
Down the hall, I open the door to the little courtyard outside. Just a quick breath of fresh air. Maybe some sun will reset my brain.
Instead, I walk right into Lev. Literally. Hard. Warm.
“Oh my God, sorry!”
He steadies me with one large hand. “You okay?”
I blink up at him. He’s in a t-shirt today, the short sleeves exposing his full sleeves, jaw sharp, hair still damp like he recently took a shower. Looking deliciously lickable, and smelling like it.
