The book went sailing through the air before my mind could fully process the familiar tone of Noah's voice. It
whipped right past his head, thudding hard against the wall.
Noah stepped out of the doorway then, his hands raised in a placating gesture. His gaze traveled between the
book lying haphazardly on the floor and back to me, his mouth slightly open.
We simply stared at one another for several long, excruciating moments. Then, finally, | found my voice again-
although it emerged as more of a breathless whisper.
“I was down the hall. Heard you call out my name. Is everything okay?”
“... | thought you were an intruder,” | stammered out, my towel slipping a little further down my chest as my
arms fell limply to my sides. “I didn’t... | didn’t know you were home.”

Noah's brow furrowed slightly. “If you thought | wasn’t home, then why did you call out my name?”
| opened and closed my mouth, grasping for an excuse that didn’t immediately spring to mind. Finally, my
shoulders slumped. “I don’t know. | was frightened. It was... instinct, | suppose.”
My cheeks flushed hotly under his gaze, certain he would interpret that particular admission as sdeeper,
more meaningful thing. And, from the way Noah's expression softened ever so slightly around the edges, his
face laced with smug satisfaction... he had.
Taking a step toward me, then another, Noah closed the distance between us until we were nearly chest to
chest. Up close, | could smell the warm, familiar scent of his cologne, just as | had earlier that day in the
bathroom. It made my mouth go dry.
“Is that so?” he murmured, his gaze wandering my body in a way that remindedthat | was wearing nothing
but a towel. Instinctively, | clutched at the towel, attempting to keep it from falling.
Noah's lips quirked upward at the movement. Lifting one hand, he extended his index finger to toy idly with the
loose edge of the towel where it hung dangerously low over the swell of my breasts.
“You know... it is the night of our monthly intimacy, isn’t it?” he said, the words dripping with heavy insinuation
as the towel slipped a few tantalizing inches lower.
My breath hitched sharply at both the realization and the burning trail left in the wake of Noah's fingertip grazing
along the top curve of my breast. Suddenly, the scent of his skin, his proximity, the familiar hardness of his body-
it all began to make my head spin.
Goddess, | wanted him.
But | knew | needed to step back, to put sspace between Noah and myself before | did something | would
regret-before | made things even more complicated than they already were.
Just as Noah's finger curled, clearly prepared to simply yank the towel off entirely and have his way with me
right here, right now, | managed to get a grip on myself. | took a step back, looking away with a clenched jaw,
“There's no need for that anymore,” | managed, my voice sounding more confident than I really felt in that
moment. “Those nights are over.”
