His hand, tattooed and powerful, slammed against the armrest, making the entire chair jolt. The force of it was so sudden that I flinched, my breath catching in my throat.

Then, in one swift motion, he spun the chair to face me, the steel of his gun glinting in the dim light as he pressed it against my forehead, forcing my head back against the leather seat. 

"Such a smart girl, aren't you?" His voice was a venomous hiss, the smirk on his face twisted into something cruel and taunting.

He enjoyed this-enjoyed the power, the control. The metal was cold, biting into my skin as he pushed harder, my skull grinding against the headrest.

"Why do this?" I gasped, trying to keep my voice steady, praying for any distraction that might buy me time. "Why be part of something so horrific when you're already a billionaire?"

His response was a whisper, yet it sliced through the air like a blade. "Power, Nadia."

Grayson stared into the dark. "Do we know each other?" "No," Nadia whispered. "We don't know each other. If not for this blackout, our paths wouldn't have crossed. And when the power is restored, we'll become strangers again. Getting to know each other just seems like something to do to pass the time, not because we truly want to know each other. It's not...honest." Her explanation echoed throughout his body, vibrating through skin and bone. Honest. What did he know about that? Not much in the world he maneuvered in. He wasn't used to her brand of frankness, and so he didn't give her platitudes. Her honesty deserved more than that. "You're right," he said. "And you're wrong." In the glow of his phone, she stared at him, her lips parted, eyes wide. "When the lights come back on and we leave here, we probably won't see each other again. But in this moment, there's nothing I want more than to discover more about Nadia with the gorgeous mouth and unholy curves."
