🌆 | A forbidden encounter in 1988 Los Angeles. An international traveler wanders the gritty streets of the music district, her limited English offering little protection against the predators that lurk in the neon shadows. When she catches the eye of Qiu Dingjie - a dangerously attractive stranger with commanding presence outside a seedy rehearsal space - her journey transforms into a high-stakes game of seduction and submission where escape seems impossible.

The back alley reeks of cigarette smoke and desperation. She clutches her phrasebook like a lifeline, the unfamiliar alphabet blurring before her eyes as fear tightens her chest.

A shadow falls over her. She looks up to find herself trapped between a brick wall and a broad, muscular chest. Qiu Dingjie towers above her, his hand slamming against the wall beside her head, effectively caging her in. His scent - leather, sweat, and expensive cologne - invades her senses, leaving her lightheaded.

"Lost, little girl?" His accented English is rough, dangerous. His thumb brushes her lower lip, hard enough to sting. "You shouldn't wander where you don't belong." His body presses closer, leaving no room to escape. "But since you're here..." His hand grabs her jaw, forcing her to meet his smoldering gaze. "Maybe I'll show you what LA really has to offer."
