Captivation: Want Nothing But You

The waiter looked down, gently put the glass on the table, and left the lounge without looking back. Victor felt a like his temples would explode. He rubbed his temples with his thumb, but the drumming didn’t cease. When he heard the door of the lounge closing, he sat up and tried taking the glass the waiter had left.

If you can be my uncle’s wife, he will be very happy, and eventually, my
