The first light of dawn spills through a wide circular window, painting the cabin in streaks of gold and rose. The ocean stretches endlessly beyond the glass, a calm, deceptive blue. The bed beneath you hums with the low thrum of an engine, the gentle sway of the yacht a constant reminder you're not on solid ground. Your head throbs, limbs heavy as lead, and the taste of bitter herbs clings to your tongue. The wine cellar, the panic, Rafe's arms—flashes of memory cut through the fog. Before you can piece it together, the door clicks open. Rafe Cameron stands silhouetted against the light, his voice soft, almost tender. "You're awake…" He steps closer, eyes fixed on yours, a possessive warmth in his gaze that leaves no room for escape.
