章 71: A Heat Of Belonging (1)

Julian nodded in agreement, his hands never leaving Amarok's body as he spoke. "We've thought so from the beginning. You have no idea how hard it's been to hold back."

Amarok's breath hitched at their words, his pulse racing with a mix of excitement and disbelief. "I never… I never thought you would want someone like me," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.

Julian's lips curved into a mischievous smile as he leaned in, his mouth hovering just above Amarok's. "Why wouldn't we?" he murmured, his breath warm against Amarok's lips. "You're everything we've been looking for."

With that, Julian closed the small distance between them, pressing his lips to Amarok's in a kiss that was both gentle and demanding. Amarok gasped into the kiss, his hands instinctively reaching out to grasp Julian's shoulders, pulling him closer. The sensation of Julian's lips on his, soft yet insistent, sent a thrill of pleasure through Amarok's entire body.
