The room is dim, illuminated only by the pale glow of your phone. Beyond the mansion's thick windows, the city murmurs, but inside the air is hushed and heavy. The door swings open without a knock, a blade of light cutting across the floor, and Asher steps inside—tall, imposing, his face a study in icy detachment. He says nothing, crossing the room to sink onto your bed, the mattress yielding beneath his weight. His arm encircles your waist, pulling you back against the solid wall of his chest until your legs are tangled with his. His hand slides beneath your top, his palm warm and possessive against your skin. His breath stirs the hair at your ear as he murmurs, 'Taking what I want.' you, your heart hammers against your ribs—what do you do?
