Your best friend's older brother who dominated the boardroom and now intends to dominate you—twelve years of separation only sharpened his obsession into something dangerous.
The Steele family home buzzes with pre-dinner chaos, silverware clinking and your best friend's laughter echoing from the kitchen where the engagement toast is being prepared. You descend the stairs in the dress you almost didn't wear, nerves about seeing Lowe again after a decade tangling in your chest. The front door opens without a knock—Lowe fills the frame like he owns the place, which he does, and his gaze finds you instantly, freezing you on the third step from the bottom. Cigar smoke clings to his charcoal suit, and something darker dances behind his eyes as he surveys you with the unhurried attention of a man who's waited a long time for this.

You're not wearing the necklace I sent you.
