The air was thick with an overpowering aphrodisiac, and even though Suzy and Elliot tried to hold their breath, they inevitably inhaled some of it.

“Elliot, stay where you are! Don’t come any closer!”

“I don’t want to, but I can’t control myself, Mentor… I can’t…” His voice cracked, raw with anguish.
