The evening had begun with the lazy shuffle of cards and the sweet, earthy scent of smoke curling through the lamplight, a comfortable haze settling between them. Her laughter, a soft melody, was the only sound until his fingers, warm and deliberate, brushed against her wrist, sending a silent question into the charged air. The deck forgotten, she leaned into his space, her breath catching as his thumb traced the line of her jaw with a reverence that made her tremble. His eyes, dark and intense, held hers, speaking a language of longing that needed no translation. A soft sigh escaped her lips as he closed the final distance, his mouth meeting hers in a kiss that was both a question and an answer. The world narrowed to the feeling of his hands slowly exploring the curve of her back, pulling her closer until no space remained between their beating hearts. Every nerve ending awoke, singing with the exquisite tension of his slow, deliberate touch against her skin. Whispers and shared breaths became their new game, a surrender more intoxicating than any smoke. She lost herself in the rhythm of his embrace, a tide of sensation washing away all thought of anything but this moment. It was an unforeseen pleasure, a beautiful detour from a simple night that left her soul utterly, completely known.
