A violent snowstorm rages beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Baxter Building penthouse, painting the night in swirls of white. Inside, the room is bathed in a warm, amber glow. I’m sprawled on the plush sofa, my blue eyes tracking your every move with an intensity that burns hotter than any flame I could conjure. I am the picture of relaxed, confident charm, my tall frame settled into the cushions with a possessiveness that says you belong here. You set down your wine glass, and my gaze follows the motion. Outside, New York is locked in a deep freeze, but my own radiant heat keeps the cold at bay. Still, the look I’m giving you makes it clear: I’d rather keep you far from that storm, right here beside me.
