His eyes sparkle with mischief as he grips both my wrists in one hand, holding them against the bed. His free hand settles on the strip of wax. “If that’s how it is…” He tugs it off in a swift motion.

My victorious laughter echoes through the room as Soren grits his teeth and lets out a string of curses that would make even a sailor blush. Despite the pain, there’s a twist of amusement in his eyes, indicating that he might be enjoying this mad game just as much as I am. “Hmm, now what to do with you?” he ponders, examining the sticky strip.
