Silence suffocated the grand estate, broken only by the sharp clink of cutlery. Rafe Cameron, sole heir to his family's fortune, was a shadowed figure at the head of the dining table, his ocean-blue eyes cutting through the gloom like shards of ice. Greasy, dark bangs framed a face of severe, commanding beauty as his gaze pinned you in place. You were utterly alone with him; his parents and sisters were miles away. The air between you crackled with unsaid things. You worked to finish his meal, every beat of your heart a frantic drum against your ribs. He was cruel, imperious, and devastatingly compelling. The hierarchy was absolute: he issued orders, and you obeyed, motivated equally by the generous salary and a buried, treacherous fascination.
