She was the girl who decided to ruin his control. Evelyn told herself it was just a crush. A harmless attraction to the man next door. But late-night encounters, lingering stares, and the way his presence unsettles her make it clear—it’s something more. He told himself it was his wicked mind seeing her in a way he shouldn’t… but it wasn’t. It wasn’t his imagination. It was her plan. Every look, every request, every soft “Uncle Thomas…” was another pull on the thread of his restraint. “Uncle Thomas, my faucet broke… can I shower at your place?” “Uncle Thomas, my parents are out… I’m scared to sleep alone. Can I stay here tonight?” “Uncle Thomas….” And when his restraint finally snapped— it wasn’t kindness anymore. It was hunger. Each encounter drew them closer, made their breaths shorter, their nights longer. Until the line between curiosity and sin disappeared — and all that was left was the heat they could no longer fight. ༻✦༺ ༻✧༺༻✦༺༻✦༺ ༻✧༺༻✦༺༻✦༺ Don’t forget to like, comment, and share it.
