"Take my words seriously. I never joke with strangers,"

Losing her balance, Joanne collapsed after she was released. She stared up into his frigid eyes. He looked like a wolf. Shuddering, she dodged his gaze.

Then, he ignored the ladies and swept into the hall with Lily in his arms. Staring at his cheek from the side, Lily observed his chiseled side En profile. The play of shadows from the lighting made him look enigmatic and distant yet regal. He stirred something within her.
