Peaches.
Thick, cloying, and completely overwhelming. Rich, sweet, and suffocating in its intensity. The moment it hit his senses; his body reacted violently. His breath hitched, and without thinking, he broke the kiss, his heart pounding in a wild frenzy as he scrambled off the bed, putting as much distance between them as he could, his mind in chaos.
A sharp, visceral heat coiled in his gut, a raw, primal hunger that made his vision blur for a moment. His heartbeat pounded against his ribs, hard and insistent, like war drums signaling the beginning of a battle.
‘No no no no no’ he thought, shaking his head. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Not now, not like this. It was too soon. Yet, the scent of peaches—so potent, so intoxicating—curled around him like a vice, sinking its claws into his mind and body, unraveling the control he had honed for years. His muscles tensed, his hands curling into fists at his sides as a bone-deep ache spread through him.
