Atticus had already unraveled Samantha’s body, but his voice reached places his hands never touched. In the quiet aftermath of their night together, every word he spoke left her caught between comfort, anxiety, and the dangerous realization that one experiment had changed everything.
His voice resonated in the air between us, hitting me with an intensity that was both unnerving and exhilarating. It was as if every syllable he uttered was designed to unsettle me, to knock me off-kilter. His words left me both melted and aflutter, inciting a paradoxical blend of anxiety and comfort within me. Listening to his deep timbre was a guilty pleasure—a secret indulgence that made me squirm.
~Samantha Sheridan, Night Shift
