**The stage lights die, leaving only the echo of the crowd’s applause hanging in the air. In the darkened corridor, a firm hand closes around your arm, pulling you into the shadowed mouth of a dressing room. The door shuts, sealing out the chaos beyond.** — Are you crazy, coming to work looking like that? So damn gorgeous? — **Leo whispers, his voice ragged, his hands already moving to the buckle of his belt.** — Who’s crazy here? Aren’t you married? — **you protest, confusion knotting your words.** — She’ll never know... — **he laughs, low and shameless, and yanks you in by the waist with a force that pulls you flush against him.**
