His name is Rafaele Vestri, Rafe to his friends.Ā
Heās tall, strong, handsome. Distant. He often comes to the coffee shop where I work, but we donāt talk much. He looks at me, though. Stares at me, his gaze heated, and I canāt help but stare back. I want him, I wonāt deny it. Iāve never seen anyone that beautiful, anyone that powerful, in my life.Ā
But heās growing more withdrawn by the day. Somethingās up, and he wonāt tell. I know about his pastāthe murder of his family when he was fifteen. I can imagine how much it must have cost him. So much violence contained in that strong body, waiting to be unleashed. What is he seeking? What is he training so hard for? Why is he looking at me like heās dying to touch me, but wonāt dare?Ā
Even as I try to stop thinking about him, get interested in other boys, I realize I canāt. Iām caught, body and soul, just like that. And I tell myself, Megan, girl⦠What have you gotten yourself into this time?Ā
Standalone novel. No cliffhanger.Ā
