Status Updates From Estranged Heart (What Remai...

super intriguing and a dramatic start so far 🤔 curious to see what happened next

“Okay. I want to be gentle with you, at least the first time.” I grin. “Only the first time?” “Sí. Only the first time. I’ll know what I’ve had after that, and will need you too badly to wait again.”

“I um . . . thought it could make things easier.” I lift a brow, chuckling halfheartedly. “Easier for what?” “You know.” His head lowers, cheeks blushing so bright they’re even hard to miss in the dark. “I don’t. You have to tell me.”

.. “As he continues to sing, I can’t help but gravitate toward him the way a weak, transfixed fool at sea would a siren. I ignore all the warnings and sounding alarms going off inside me all the same. I’m swimming into dangerous waters with him, and the deeper I go the bigger risk I have of drowning.”

Kinda heavy read tbh

She’s such a good liar…
