DALTON POV After the little pity party in the garden—yeah, I saw it for what it was—I went back to our room. Nothing special. Just needed to clear my head. Maybe chill for a bit before hitting the gym. Burn some of this frustration off. Just chill. Right? That’s all I meant to do. But then... I walked past Kai’s side of the room. The drawer wasn’t even fully closed. One of the top ones. I didn’t open it. Not really. My fingers just brushed it. And then it was open. Just like that. That’s how it started. That’s how I ended up standing there with my hand buried in Kai’s underwear. Lace. Soft. Black. With a little ribbon on the front. I froze. That was… unexpected. My pulse stopped, then kicked back in—loud. Violent. Like it was trying to break out of my chest. What the fuck...?
