Losing Control : His Madness, His Cure

His breath comes out sharp. “You’re so fucking full of yourself it's ridiculous.” “You haven’t told me to stop,” I murmur. His fingers twitch like he wants to hit me or grab me, maybe both. He turns his head away like he’s trying to find oxygen, but I can see it, the flush in his neck, the pulse beating fast under my thumb, the way his body gives him away even while his mouth keeps lying. I press my body into his, chest to chest, heat to heat. “You want to hate me. Fine. Hate me all you want. But don’t fucking lie to yourself. Don’t pretend your cock doesn’t get hard every time I say your name.” He groans, a sound caught between frustration and need. Xander never meant to get involved. Two years ago he stumbled into an alley and locked eyes with a stranger beating someone bloody. That stranger was Jax. Since then, he's found himself thinking of the guy an unhealthy amount. He was a fantasy for two whole years...until he wasn't. Now they circle each other like fire and gasoline...sparking, burning, never quite touching without leaving marks. Xander isn’t used to being overpowered. But Jax dominates like he was born to, and Xander hates how much he craves it. It’s push and pull. Bite and bleed. Want and denial..... Jax hides behind silence and shadows. A violent past, darker urges, walls built out of barbed wire. But Xander keeps digging, keeps fucking showing up, and that scares Jax more than anything. Because Xander isn’t just scratching the surface. He’s reaching in and pulling Jax apart. And the deeper they fall, the more dangerous it gets. ✨He was supposed to be a pastime. Not a craving. But some obsessions don’t burn out. They burn through.✨
