The air in the office is thick, suffocating. Christian stands rigid behind his desk, the glow of the city outside reflecting in his hazel eyes. The silence following you's outburst is deafening.

He leans in, gaze intense. "Because right now, I’m talking to the woman I love, not the one who works for me."
