Chapter One

Luna

"Luna..."

His voice hit my ear, and my fingers clenched tight without thinking.

Deep, a little raspy, like he'd held it back in his throat forever before letting it out. Every syllable grazed my earlobe, messing up my breathing for no damn reason.

Cassian's low, gravelly voice burned into my ear like hot embers.

Paired with his hands on me, it made me crave more.

"Fuck, baby, you're so tight inside... wraps me up like it's always the first time," he murmured, nipping my earlobe with his teeth, his voice dripping with raw possession. "Admit it, you love me fucking you like this, don't you? My little slut, spread those legs wider—let me go deeper."

My face burned red-hot, shame and pleasure exploding together. I wanted to call him a pig, but all that came out was a shattered moan. "Cassian... stop... talking..."

"Stop?" He chuckled low, voice even rougher, laced with wicked amusement. "Then why're you clenching harder downthere? Huh? Mouth says no, but your body's honest." He thrust hard, burying himself to the hilt, jolting me forward until my chest pressed against his sweat-slicked one.

In bed, Cassian was nothing like his usual cold, unapproachable self. I loved seeing him like this.

The massive wave of pleasure had my nails digging into his back, pain and ecstasy bursting at once. I finally cried out. "Ah... too deep... Cassian... slower..."

"Can't slow down." He panted, gripping my waist like he wanted to fuse me into him. "It's our anniversary today. I'm fucking you till you can't get out of bed tomorrow. You're mine."

He picked up the pace, each slam heavy and brutal, the headboard thumping against the wall.

My mind went blank, just pure instinct taking over. I wrapped my legs tighter, toes curling.

He tore me apart piece by piece, then put me back together. The world shrank to his ragged breaths, the scorching heat of his palms, the ruthless way he hit deep every time.

"Say my name." He stopped suddenly, buried inside me, unmoving, just staring with those deep green eyes. "Louder."

I squirmed, desperate, trying to move, but he pinned me down.

"Cassian..." I finally gave in, voice shaking, tears welling up.

"Louder."

"Cassian!" I screamed it. Next second, he growled low in satisfaction and pounded into me like a madman.

Orgasm hit fast and fierce, swallowing me like a tidal wave.

I trembled all over, instincts taking hold. In the haze, I heard Cassian roar in my ear. "Fuck... coming inside you... all for you..."

Hot rush filled me, and I went limp in his arms, nothing left but our heavy breathing.

I snapped my eyes open.

The familiar beige ceiling stared back. The bedroom was dead quiet, except for my pounding heart.

I turned my head, reached out instinctively—cool, empty sheets. Not the warmth of someone just gone. Stone-cold, like that side of the bed had been vacant for hours, like no one had ever slept there. I ran my hand over the chill, then pulled it back, held it to my chest for a second.

Just a dream, Luna. He hadn't come home at all.

I squeezed my eyes shut. Something pressed lightly on my heart. Not painful, just empty.

Today was our third wedding anniversary.
