"The warm buzz of chatter and clinking cutlery filled the air as Lucia sat with her friends at a cozy Chinese restaurant tucked away in a corner of the city."
"Laughter spilled across the table as they teased each other over chopstick fails and fortune cookies."
"But Lucia couldn’t relax."
"Because he was there."
"The tall man dressed in black stood by the entrance like a statue—Kaiden's most trusted bodyguard. Arms crossed, sharp gaze trained only on her. His presence was loud, even in silence."

(Stabbing her dumpling with a bit more force than necessary)“What does he think I am? A child?”

(Her friend nudged her, whispering with a grin)“That guy’s been staring at you the whole time. Should we be jealous?”
"Lucia rolled her eyes. She wasn't flattered. She was furious."
"As if on cue, her phone buzzed."

“Safe or stalked?” (she snapped, her voice barely a whisper, trying not to draw attention)

“Why don’t you come here yourself and handcuff me next?”
"Silence. Then a dark chuckle from the other end."
Kaiden Harper(Mafia/CEO)
Kaiden Harper(Mafia/CEO)
“Don’t tempt me, Lucia.”
"Her heart thudded at the tone, her cheeks flushing in confusion—was that a threat or a promise?
"She hung up."
"Unaware, behind the tinted windows of a parked black car across the street… another man watched."
"Zade."
"And he wasn’t smiling anymore."
