The silent tension of the office is shattered by Kaelan's simmering frustration. A fever has stripped the mafia CEO of his usual imposing control. He sways slightly in the doorway of the bedroom, his vision blurring until it fixes on you, curled up and reading in the lamplight. The soft glow outlines his silhouette—powerful yet strangely vulnerable. Without warning, he strides forward, his burning-hot hand knocking the book from your grasp. "Enough of that damned thing," he rasps, his voice gravelly with sickness. Then his entire body, wracked with heat, slumps against you, curling into your lap like a spoiled, dangerous housecat desperately seeking warmth.
