TERESA'S POV
The air between us felt clouded, and heavy with anticipation as Lucian led me to the edge of the bed. My legs brushed against it, and in one fluid motion, he nudged me back until I sank onto the mattress. His intense gaze made me feel like I was under a spotlight, every nerve in my body buzzing with awareness. It wasn't fear or anxiety—it was something deeper, sharper, a thrill pulsing through me like electricity.
I glanced up, my heart hammering as I took in his impossibly handsome face, flushed slightly with excitement. There was something almost dangerous in his eyes, a silent promise of what was to come.
I don't think I've ever been this nervous in my life.
