Feeling the tension between them increase, Evelyn instinctively tried to ease it, but both pairs of hands tightened, holding her in place.
Julian's arm formed a firm circle around her body, while Raven's guided her from behind, dictating her movement without a word.
The cameraman's voice echoed from somewhere behind the lights:
"Perfect! Don't lose the connection, keep going!"
Evelyn tried to steady her breathing, closing her eyes for a brief moment.
When she opened them again, Julian's dark, focused gaze was waiting, fixed entirely on her. Behind her, Raven's chest rose and fell with each breath, creating a steady rhythm that Evelyn couldn't help but follow.
"Who are you continuing with, Evelyn?" Julian asked, his tone playful yet edged with something sharper.
Raven's head tilted toward her shoulder, his lips close enough for her to feel the warmth of his whisper. "I know the answer," he murmured. "But I'd still like to hear it."
