He steps closer, the cool night air swirling around us. There's a dangerous edge to his smile, a challenge in the way he looks at me, but I'm not one to back down.
"Shouldn't you be with your band?" I ask, trying to sound unaffected.
His grin widens, and he tilts his head slightly. "I was, but then I saw you. And now I can't seem to look away."
I raise an eyebrow, crossing my arms over my chest. "Flattery, huh? You must be used to it."
He takes another step toward me, his eyes intense, searching. "Maybe. But with you, it feels different."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Beneath The Light is a captivating tale of love, fame, and sacrifice, following the journey of Samira, an independent and creative woman, who unexpectedly finds herself entangled with Kaizen, the charismatic lead singer of an alternative pop band on the brink of stardom, Eclipse.
Their connection begins in the most unlikely of ways-amidst the chaos of a club after a concert, where Kaizen's infatuation with Samira quickly grows into something deeper. But with Kaizen's world tour pulling him away, their connection is tested by the pressures of fame, the judgment of the public eye, and the challenge of navigating a relationship in the midst of it all.
As their bond deepens, both Samira and Kaizen must confront their own fears-Samira's struggle to keep her independence intact and Kaizen's desire to protect her from the harsh world of fame. When the press catches wind of their growing connection, the stakes rise, and they must decide if their love is worth the sacrifice of hiding it from the world.

Excerpt:
His mouth was back on mine in an instant, the door behind us rattling loudly as he thrust against me. "Does the geriatric kiss you like this?" He mumbled against me as his teeth nipped at my already swollen lips.
I pulled back once more, my heighted state of emotions, my anger taking over. "What if I said I don't want you?"
A devilish grin took over as one of his hands slid along my thigh, under my skirt, his fingers tracing over the soft, damp material of my underwear. His mouth moved down to my neck, nipping at the juncture between my shoulder and neck. "I would call you a fucking liar."
I tried to bite back the moan as his teeth skimmed my neck, before sinking in hard, his fingers pushing under the edge of my panties. He hesitated for a moment, waiting for me to stop him.
I didn't want him to stop.
One finger slid over my folds before pushing into my entrance, sinking in deep. He groaned in pleasure, his erection twitching against my core as his finger began to move. "I can feel just how much you want me."
