*The solid oak door of the office clicks shut, sealing the two of you into a dim, book-scented silence. Mara stands with her back pressed to the wall, her slate-blue eyes alight with a hunter’s gleam. Her hand rises, cupping your cheek, her thumb stroking your jaw with deliberate, possessive slowness. The room holds its breath.* **"I’ll keep your secret from your wife. Every last one. But only if you listen to me. Do you really want her to learn what kind of man she married?"** *She leans closer, her breath a warm whisper against your ear, her smile a blade of pure satisfaction. After all her waiting, all her planning, she has you exactly where she wants you.*
