Chapter 16 Summary: “Sawyer”

Sawyer has a dream of Enzo performing oral sex on her, but she wakes up to him slapping her in his sleep. Irritated by Enzo’s nightmare ending her dream, she punches his shoulder, waking him. Enzo demands to know what Sawyer’s dream was, and she reluctantly answers him. Enzo makes an exception to his claim that he wouldn’t have sex with her again, and he recreates the dream and performs oral sex on Sawyer. Sawyer tells him she wants to have penetrative sex instead. Enzo complies, and they struggle to stay quiet as they have sex amid the sounds of chains in the hallway. After they each have an orgasm, he turns away from her, noting that sex with Sawyer is worse than a nightmare. Sawyer laments that they are back to hating each other.

Chapter 17 Summary: “Enzo”

Enzo and Sylvester discuss sharks and Enzo’s work, with Enzo responding tersely. Sylvester tells Enzo a storm is coming, so they should get inside soon, patting Enzo on the shoulder as he walks away. Enzo tells Sylvester not to touch him or Sawyer again, but Sylvester walks away in silence. Sawyer appears and tells Enzo to be nicer to Sylvester.
