Where?He brings the cigar to his lips, eyes fixed on me. The ember glows. He leans back, exhaling a slow cloud that curls like mist around us. It mixes with his cologne, and I nearly sway from the scent.I stare, unable to peel my eyes off dangerously dark eyes.He takes out the cigar and smokes in my face, “You go first… I’ll go second.”Go first?I’m going to… touch him?My head feels dizzy.“I’m going to smoke through it, so satisfy your curiosity.” He adds before putting the cigar back in his mouth.He suddenly claps, and the lights go out. Total darkness folds around us, velvety and charged with everything wrong. A cold settles on me, and I hear my heart drumming. Before I can think, he takes my right hand, guiding it to his… chest.My lungs seize at the feel of tiny barbells.He exhales tobacco, chest j

    Sophia’s POVAlexander’s calmness fills the elevator like gravity. I stare at my reflection against the panel—blonde hair secured in a neat bun. Teal dress, perfect. He slowly holds my hand and locks our fingers with gentle possessiveness. Then he meets my gaze in the panel, looking at me like I’m already his. It feels undebatable.My breath flutters.The first and last time I was here was by chance. This time, it’s by choice. Whatever happens to me is all on me. Ding.The 69th floor.And the elevator doors open.I clench my free fist as I follow beside him.The drive here was quiet. Nothing surprising; his silence does all the speaking. We’re waiting until marriage. He told me that himself, yet it feels like I’m walking into dangerous storms I don’t understand.“Eleven, eleven, two…” he mutters as his fingerprint gets scanned. I look at him.“That’s my passcode.” His passcode?“It’s the same for the private elevator.”I give him a nod, committing it to memory.The door clicks

He lies well, too.Just the perfect red flag. From the corners of my eyes, I watch him type on his iPad.All covered up in a navy blue suit.

    Alexander Thorne’s POVPhone in hand, I tap on the steering wheel, eyes fixed on the line-up of cars in my private garage. My mind is elsewhere.Dimitri left thirty-five minutes ago. I sent Garvey home, too, but I’ve been seated inside this car, waiting.Dinner for Sophia and her new dress sits on the passenger seat beside me.My fist clenches tight around my phone. My patience is wearing thin, but I don’t have a choice. I unlock my phone and stare at the text I was forced to send because this inattentive Psycho wouldn’t pick up my calls. I delete the text after some seconds.My phone vibrates all of a sudden.Caller ID: PsychoI immediately pick up. “Why didn’t you answer your phone?

    Sophia’s POVHe breaks our kiss, hands stilling on my thighs. I lock gaze with him, seeing how dark and dilated his pupils have turned. He’s panting just as I am. His face is frozen—an expression of shock I don’t miss.My body trembles, but I shake my head weakly, letting him know I can’t. He withdraws his hands quickly.But as my arms go around his neck, he grips my waist, lifting me suddenly.“I don’t…”His lips press against the soft swell of my chest. My heart kicks hard, my words melting into an inhale.I coil in pleasure, releasing a deep breath as my head drops.“You’re a fantastic kisser.” He murmurs, breathy, hands shaking on my waist.The compliment sends a curl up my stomach.
