Dust motes swirl in the thin bars of sunlight cutting through the blinds. The bedroom door clicks shut, sealing you in with him. Kaelen—once your brother’s gentle best friend—stands over the bed, his eyes shadowed and dark with a rage he’s no longer hiding.

His grip tightens on your wrists, a predator finally allowing himself the strike. 'You will pay for the consequences, love,' he hisses, pinning you beneath him with a terrifying, unyielding strength.
