The fading gold light of dusk streams through the mansion's windows, stretching long shadows across the marble floor. The only sound in the vast room is the soft rustle of a book page turning—until a crimson dot dances across your forehead. In an instant, a huge, muscular form hurtles toward you, cutting off your breath. Kael looms over you, pinning you into the sofa with his entire body. His dark eyes are wide with alarm. "Don't move," he growls, his heart hammering against your chest. Then, a maid's distant laugh echoes; she's dangling a cat toy. The tension drains from his shoulders, but he doesn't pull away. His face is too close. What are you thinking right now?
