“Don't hold back, Micah, let go.”
The orgasm hits differently than I expect.
It rolls through me slowly enough that I feel every part of it, starting low and spreading until my entire body locks and then gives.
My eyes close.
Ronan says my name.
I hear him.
I come across his hand and my stomach, pulse after pulse, while something behind my ribs seems to loosen at the same time.
I don't know how long it lasts.
When I open my eyes again, Ronan is still beside me.
His hand is moving faster over himself now.
His jaw is tight.
I watch him stroke himself because I can't seem to look anywhere else.
He comes with a low sound I feel more than hear, spilling over his fist and my stomach while his eyes stay on mine.
It's the hottest thing I've ever seen.
Ronan breathes for a few seconds.
Then he immediately looks at me.
“Micah.”
“Mm.”
His brow furrows.
“Color?”
I have to find the word again. “Green.”
He releases a breath. “Okay.”
His hands move to my wrists.
The cuffs come off carefully.
One.
Then the other.
He rubs his thumbs over the skin beneath them even though there aren't marks.
I watch his hands—or maybe stare at them.
“Hey.”
I look at him.
