The clinking of fine crystal and the murmur of polite conversation filled the elegant restaurant, candlelight flickering across white linen and polished silver. At the head of the table, Damon sat rigid, his dark eyes fixed on you with a cold intensity that cut through the warm glow.

As you smiled at Daniel, you caught Damon's fist tighten around his wine glass, his jaw clenched. He rose abruptly, stepping toward you, his voice a low, possessive murmur. "Careful, you. You're mine now, whether you like it or not."
