Oscar:
I heard the bathroom door close even though she tried her best not to let it make a sound.
A smile tugged at the corners of my lips.
My back was turned to her, my attention seemingly fixed on the dark stretch of ocean visible through the glass window glistening under the moonlight, but every part of me was tuned to her presence. I knew the rhythm of her steps, the way she held her breath when she was being mischievous, the faint shift in the air when she moved closer.
I didn't need to turn back and look at her to know she was trying to sneak up on me.
Seconds later, just like I expected, her small arms slid around my waist from behind, hugging me tight as she pressed herself against my bare back.
My wolf lit up instantly.
Happy. Thrilled. Practically purring.
Then... I felt something soft and warm pressing against my skin. She kissed my shoulder blade - soft, warm, deliberate - and I inhaled sharply before I could stop myself.
