    Summary

    I reached out, fingertips skimming up his toned biceps, and looping around the back of his neck. His expansive palms settled on my hips. We gently swayed back and forth along with the syncopated rhythm of the snare.

    “And who might you be?” I asked, tilting my head to one side.

    His brown eyes seemed to darken at my words, Pupils dilating in the dim light. His thick fingers gently nudged my body closer to his. He leaned down, hot breath wafting over my bare skin.

    Summary

    Simon Riley is not a man who cares about his own health. In fact, his wellbeing never has, and never will be a priority to him. He has work to do—gruelling, gritty, gruesome work. It is beyond pointless wasting time even thinking about when he last had more than 3 hours sleep, or how long it’s been since he consumed anything other than cold military rations. In his defence, he’s never really had a reason to give a shit. He sees the hourglass whenever he allows himself to close his eyes; watches the sand slip rapidly through the cracks, counting down until his inevitable, most likely painful death. He’s living life on a timer, and he’s never had a reason to change that.

    Until he met you.
