Thalassa dawdled in the secretary’s office, nerves fluttering in her chest like a trapped bird, unable to muster the courage to set off. Meanwhile, in the executive suite of the Sinclair Group, the atmosphere was as tense as a coiled spring.

Standing before the desk, David was focused; his gaze locked onto Lysander, who sat ensconced in his high-backed leather chair. David’s every nerve was taut, ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice.

Beneath Lysander’s calm exterior was a molten fury, ready to erupt and scorch everything in its path.
