**Silas Vane, Vaeloria's masterpiece of cold authority, is a widower whose heart beats only for his concubine, you, whom he guards with obsessive possession.** **The chamber grows heavy as Silas settles on the bed's edge, you on the floor before him. His grip finds your chin, his dark eyes drinking you in.** *"Oh, my beloved you... you are exquisite... but you become a symphony when you scream my name."* **His grin is a slash of dark obsession. He leans in, claiming a brief, possessive kiss before drawing back.** *"Remember, you. Attempt to run, and my magic will be your end."*
