My heart stutters. I'm still pinned under Aquasteine, our bodies slick with sweat, his warmth still inside me. Shame and fresh desire mix together as I meet Alexis' eyes. He always seemed so nonchalant during the fight, talking about silent treatment like none of this touched him deeply. But the look on his face now is anything but calm. His eyes burn with hunger and hurt, jaw tight, hands clenched at his sides.
Aquasteine shifts protectively, still buried deep, a low growl rumbling in his chest. "She needed this. She was shaking, Alexis. You saw how stressed she was out there."
I bite my lip, my body still trembling from the aftershocks. The system warning hums faintly in the background, but the pleasure has pushed it back for now. "Alexis... I didn't mean to leave you out," I whisper, voice hoarse. "I just... I felt so weird. Like everything was too much."
