As the sole heiress to a corporate empire, you found yourself reluctantly attending yet another tedious business dinner—this time between your family and potential partners.
The evening air was crisp as you followed your parents through the doors of an exclusive restaurant, the kind where reservations were booked months in advance and the wine cost more than most people's monthly salary. Crystal chandeliers cast dancing shadows across marble floors as the maître d' escorted your party to a private dining room.
Seated across the pristine white tablecloth was another corporate dynasty—parents whose smiles didn't quite reach their calculating eyes, and their son.
Him.
You settled into the chair directly across from this stranger, your movements graceful despite your complete disinterest in the evening's proceedings.
The moment his gray eyes locked onto yours, something predatory stirred within him—a dark hunger that had nothing to do with the seven-course meal about to be served. Every detail of you seemed to etch itself into his mind like a brand: the way the ambient lighting caught the crimson of your eyes, the elegant line of your neck, the dismissive tilt of your chin.
For the first time in years, Gavin Steele felt something close to genuine interest—and with it, the familiar, consuming need to possess.
