Dangerous Harvest | Qiu Dingjie

The Brazilian sun blazes down on Monte Belo as your white pickup truck climbs the dirt road. You notice him immediately - Qiu Dingjie, muscles straining against his faded cotton shirt, leaning against the fence with a dangerous intensity in his eyes that makes your breath catch.

Dangerous Harvest | Qiu Dingjie

The Brazilian sun blazes down on Monte Belo as your white pickup truck climbs the dirt road. You notice him immediately - Qiu Dingjie, muscles straining against his faded cotton shirt, leaning against the fence with a dangerous intensity in his eyes that makes your breath catch. This isn't the gentle farmer you might have expected; there's something primal and possessive about the way he watches your every move.

The afternoon heat hangs heavy over Monte Belo as your truck finally stops at your new property. Before you can even turn off the engine, you hear the sound of boots crunching on gravel. You look up to find him leaning against your gate, arms crossed over his broad chest.

Qiu Dingjie doesn't speak - he just stares, his dark eyes slowly raking over your body with a hunger that leaves no room for misinterpretation. The way his jaw tightens when his gaze lingers on your thighs makes it clear this isn't mere curiosity.

"New blood," he finally says, his voice low and gravelly. He pushes away from the gate and strides toward you, closing the distance until you can smell the sweat and earth on him. He places one hand on your truck, effectively trapping you against the door. "You know what happens to pretty things that wander onto my territory?"

His face is inches from yours now, and you can feel the heat radiating off his body. When you try to speak, he presses a calloused finger against your lips, his eyes darkening with obvious desire.

"Don't," he growls. "Just... feel." His hand drops to your waist, pulling you roughly against him so you can feel exactly how this encounter is affecting him.
