Against my scalp, I can feel his unsteady breaths. “Close your eyes, Skyler.”

Biting my lip, I do just that.

I swear it’s as if the big, black maw of sleep was waiting for me. Because no sooner than I close my eyes, do I feel myself drifting, my thoughts fracturing, my awareness dimming.

Canaan is gone, but now it’s replaced with an ocean—black and endless, and I can no longer tell where the surface is.

My fingers bite into flesh, and Nolan holds me tighter.

Just as I have no choice but to let the current take me, I swear I feel Nolan press a kiss to my head. “I’ve got you.”

CHAPTERFIFTEEN

SKYLER

When I dream, it’s the kind that starts off more physical than mental, with sensations mingling with my slow then sudden awareness. Like I’m floating…

Floating…

Falling…

And it’s suddenly all hot, hard heat, and fingers biting into my arm, andOh! Oh! This is what it’s like…

My body movesbeyond my control, hips thrusting, swiveling, grinding…chasing delicious friction.

It’s that movement I tune into first.

My arousal I register second.

A quiet whine fills my ears, and I feel more than hear a sharp intake of air, the hard, but pliable heat beneath me rippling, tensing, before caving in around me.

A chest.

Arms.

Big, so big…

He’sso big.

My hands move of their own volition, tracing the body beneath me. It’s naked—he’snaked—and his skin is furnace-hot and slick with sweat. My tongue pokes out, wetting my lip, just as I curl my body tighter around his, clenching my thighs, desperate for some kind of relief.

The fog is lifting with every second that passes, as reality trickles in, piecing itself together.

But I resist.

I want to stay here.

I know if I wake up, I’ll lose this forever, and I never thought I could have this. Not withhim.

Another moan. Another sharp inhale. A shudder…

“S-Sky.”

It’s okay. It’s just a dream. I can have him here. I can—

My thoughts spiral and fracture, piecing off indistinguishably. It’s all sensation now. All desperate, shameless need. No thought. No reason. No anything. Just…

Him.
