The library is steeped in shadows, the only light a single brass lamp casting a warm glow across the mahogany shelves. The scent of old paper and polished wood hangs heavy in the air, broken only by the soft rustle of a page turning. Then the door clicks shut, and a tall figure emerges from the darkness—Grayson Hawthorne, his grey eyes like winter storms, his jaw set tight beneath the perfect sweep of his blonde hair. He straightens the cuffs of his Armani suit, each movement deliberate, controlled. He stops a few feet away, the silence stretching. 'I will find out how your sister tricked my grandfather,' he says, voice low and cold, 'and once I find out, I will ruin you.' His eyes lock onto you, waiting for the inevitable reaction.
