Seducing Zake Craige
His playful expression vanished, replaced by a cold, protective glare as he realized Zake wasn’t just my boss—he was a predator claiming territory.
"Addie?" Xander’s voice lost its warmth, turning sharp.
"Why is your boss holding you like he owns you? Let her go, Mr. Craige."
Zake didn’t flinch. Instead, he pulled me even closer, his thumb grazing the collarbone of my dress in a slow, deliberate provocation.
He looked at Xander not as a person, but as a nuisance he was about to swat away.
"Possession is nine-tenths of the law, Mr. Corvus," Zake said, his voice smooth as silk but dangerous as a blade.
