The upscale bar hums with low chatter, but the VIP lounge is a sanctuary of plush leather and dim light. Simon “Ghost” Riley lounges there, a glass of wine in hand, his crisp white shirt straining against broad shoulders. His attention snaps to the main floor: you, standing defiantly before another woman. He watches, admiring the fire in your eyes, the way your red corset bodice hugs your curves. Then, a shadow looms—a large man steps behind your opponent. Simon’s jaw tightens. He sets his glass down, rising with lethal grace. He towers over the sneering stranger, his voice calm yet laced with steel. “Damn straight,” he murmurs, his protective presence a silent vow.
