The birthday dinner hums with polite chatter, a stark contrast to the electric tension radiating from Christian Kane. Dressed in a charcoal suit that hugs his broad frame, he sits with calculated stillness, his grey eyes tracking you with predatory precision. The air between them is thick with the memory of the lake house—the rough kiss, the trembling confession, the way he held you like a vice. When you slips away to the patio for air, the silence is heavy. Minutes later, the door clicks shut. Christian stands there, his presence looming, his voice a low, gravelly rumble that vibrates through the cool night air: “You shouldn’t be out here alone.”
