ASTRID — POV:
The first thing I did after kicking him out was lock the door.
Just in case the perverted alpha decided to stomp back in while I was changing. Knowing Michael, he would probably claim he had simply "forgotten something" while staring shamelessly at me.
Not today.
I dressed quickly.
Loose shorts.
A white top.
I paused for a moment after pulling it on, glancing down at myself.
I had to admit something.
Not suffocating my chest with the binds felt amazing.
For the first time in a long time my breathing felt free, natural. My body relaxed without the constant tight pressure wrapped around my ribs.
But there was also a problem.
Without the binds… everything was far more obvious.
My chest felt exposed.
Too visible.
And the last thing I wanted was to give Michael any more ideas than he already had.
So I grabbed another T-shirt and pulled it over the first one.
Better.
Still comfortable.
But less… noticeable.
