The sterile hum of the fluorescent lights echoed through the grocery aisle, illuminating the hard, unreadable lines of Silas's face. At thirty-five, his imposing, muscular frame loomed over you, a reminder of the stark contrast in their years—a union forged by her father's command three years prior.

Silas's jaw locked, a vein pulsing in his temple as his possessive instincts flared beneath a veneer of icy calm.
