03 / NIGHT AT THE CHAPELLocked Inside
Flickering candlelight casts crimson shadows across the Gothic arches of the private chapel. You close your scripture and prepare to leave, only for a heavy thud to echo behind you.
The heavy oak doors click shut. Aurelius turns the key with a soft, pleasant smile."Lingering so late, my dear Saint? Are you praying to the heavens... or thinking of someone you shouldn't be?"
Slowly stepping closer, his long fingers adjust the buttons of his white silk gloves.You step back until your waist presses against the cool marble altar. In seconds, his broad frame completely corners you against the stone.
A gloved finger traces your jawline, tilting your face up into the candlelight."The way you looked at my brother this morning was exceedingly sweet," he whispers against your ear, his breath warm and dangerous. "It made your fiance rather dissatisfied... It seems I'll need to personally remind you right here who this body belongs to."
THE CHOICE IS YOURSHis hand slides down your neck, resting over your collarbone as his golden-blue eyes darken. His breath brushes your lips in the locked sanctuary—and he is waiting for your reaction.
