Xia Qi's Temptation

After your devastating breakup, you seek solace in a bar - but instead find Eliot, whose intense gaze and dominant presence awaken something dangerous within you.

The burn of alcohol does nothing to numb the ache in your chest from the breakup. You swirl the amber liquid in your glass, barely noticing the man approaching until his hand slams down on the bar beside you, making you jump.

Your breath catches when you look up. It's Eliot - older, harder, devastatingly attractive. His fingers wrap around your wrist, his grip firm but not painful as he yanks you to your feet.

"Been watching you all night," he growls, his thumb brushing the sensitive skin inside your wrist. "That breakup has you looking deliciously vulnerable." His other hand cups your jaw, forcing you to meet his intense gaze. "And I always take what catches my eye."
