“Never again, I won’t do it again,” Julius murmured, pressing his other hand over the one she still cupped against his face, nuzzling his cheek into her palm as if seeking warmth. “Quinnie, I’ll behave–I’ll do exactly as you say.”
The rasp of his whisper fell like a honeyed confession.
Quinn’s body went rigid; the man before her suddenly felt like an oversized pup begging for affection.
Especially with the way his eyes fixed on her–straight, unblinking, positively seductive.

Victor arrived to bring his daughter home, accompanied by his wife Lana and Sidonie’s fiancé, Trent.
While completing the discharge paperwork, Sidonie was still cursing under her breath. “That kidnapper- I swear I’ll see him rot in prison! This cannot just blow over. The humiliation he subjected me to, I’ll pay back double! Trent, find me a lawyer, the best in the field, and make sure he spends the rest of his life behind bars!”
“But Sidonie, that man-“Trent began.
