That is when Aurora understands she is not walking into a contract. She is walking back into the most dangerous kitchen she has ever been in. The one where everything between them has always been unspoken. The one where he still knows her breakfast order without asking. He was supposed to be off-limits. He was.

Only an asset, and it's surprising how easily you let your guard down," he growled through his teeth, his jaw clenching so hard a small muscle pulsed beneath his scar tissue.
