Chapter 1: Introduction
As Lily lay in bed next to her partner Michael, she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease wash over her They had been together for two years, but lately, she had been feeling more and more frustrated with the lack of a sex life they had
The lights were off, and the darkness of the room was only illuminated by the soft glow of the streetlamp outside the window
Lily could hear the faint sound of her partner's breathing, and the steady thrumming of her own pulse in her ears As she lied there, quietly contemplating her thoughts, she felt a warm hand brush against her leg
She froze, unsure of what to do Had Michael woken up? She hadn't heard him stir, but it was possible that he had simply caught her off guard She shifted uneasily, feeling the weight of his body press against hers as he shifted in his sleep
Her heart raced as she realized that it wasn't Michael's hand that had touched her It was someone else's
Without thinking, she sat up suddenly, causing the other person to jolt awake Lily froze, staring at the stranger in shock He was a tall, broad-shouldered man with short brown hair and green eyes, and he was still half-asleep
"Who the hell are you?" she demanded, her voice trembling
The stranger, whom she later discovered was named Josh, rubbed his eyes and blinked several times, trying to adjust to the dim light "Sorry, I must've gotten lost," he said sheepishly "I was looking for the bathroom" Lily couldn't help but notice how handsome he was, and how his muscles rippled beneath his t-shirt Even in his sleep, he seemed imposing and dominant Lily couldn't help but notice how handsome he was, and how his muscles rippled beneath his t-shirt Even in his sleep, he seemed imposing and dominant
Over the next few days, Josh stayed with Lily and Michael, and they grew used to his presence He would often sleepwalk into their room, and Lily couldn't deny that she found it exciting to have him so close to her, especially when he'd brush against her without meaning to or accidentally press against her in his sleep
