"The pleasure's all mine, Ms. Vulcan." Hearing him direct his voice to me makes me visibly shiver, which I'm sure he noticed. His sharp jaw clenches as he watches me, his head tilted to an angle. He was pissed, and he had never looked hotter.

I struggled against his grip on my waist. His other hand tightened around my chin, forcing me to stare into his eyes.
"If you continue to do this, it will not end well for either of us, Estella," he said quietly.
He said my name as if it was something he'd said a million times before. It was smooth, like chocolate. Warm, dark chocolate to match his eyes.
"How do you know my name?"
