De Luca? \u201cMr. Kaelith De Luca.\u201d Her eyes widened. Suddenly what happened yesterday crashed into her head. Kaelith. And his deal. She swallowed and shook her head. \u201cOh. I&#8230;I cannot- \u201c \u201cI\u2019m sorry but you must follow me, otherwise I have to use force.\u201d The man took a step forward scaring her and placed his foot between the door and the wall.<\/p>\n<p>There was no way she could close the door now. Looking at him, she knew he\u2019d break the door. Weighing her situation, she looked her shoulder at the clock. It was still ten in the morning. Rafael would be home late. And if she broke the deal between her and Kaelith, he\u2019d probably do something forbidden again.<\/p>\n<p>She bit her lips and nodded. \u201cOkay.\u201d The guard took a step back as Amara stepped out the door still wearing her grey dress and slippers. The guard turned around and motioned her to follow him. She fidgeted with her fingers as she followed him. Her heart pounded loudly in her chest and her breathing was uneven. She was afraid that Rafael would know. The constant fear was eating her alive. \u201cHow far is it?\u201d She asked hesitantly when the guard pressed the elevator button. She swallowed unsurely as she timidly stepped inside maintaining a distance between her and him.<\/p>\n<p>The elevator dinged as it started moving up. She frowned and looked at him. \u201cWhy are we going up?\u201d The large man looked at her with narrowed eyes as he grumbled as if she was asking useless questions. \u201cMr. De Luca lives up.\u201d Her eyes widened in shock as her head completely snapped at him. \u201cHe lives here? Since when?\u201d She asked.<\/p>\n<p>The guard twisted his lips looking down at her clothes. He didn\u2019t know why his boss had been obsessed with this plain girl when he could have any beautiful model in his arms. \u201cSince a month.\u201d He muttered as the elevator reached the upper floor. Amara followed him out. There was no one on this floor. And the hallway looked different and more luxurious than the lower levels. The doors were black with gold nameplates. The guard stopped near the door with the number 0801. Amara swallowed hard. Her heart suddenly stopped beating.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>he ballroom glittered like a sinner\u2019s paradise. Drowned in gold, silk, and secrets unsaid. Crystal chandeliers bled honeyed light over masked faces, over whispered lies, over bodies swaying to a melody far too seductive for innocence. Laughter echoed softly through the grand hall, mixing with the clink of expensive glasses and the scent of lust disguised as perfume. Yet none of it held his attention.<\/p>\n<p>But them. Kaelith stood in the corner of the upper balcony, a glass of Cabernet resting lazily between his fingers. His cold, merciless, unnervingly patient gaze followed the couple moving across the marble floor below. And for the first time that evening\u2026 something resembling amusement touched the corner of his lips. She moved like moonlight trapped in mortal skin. So soft. Untouchable. Dangerously hypnotic. Every step she took seemed to pull the world toward her, as if gravity itself had forgotten its purpose. And the man holding her\u2026<\/p>\n<p>he danced like he had once memorized the rhythm of her soul. Beside him, Lorcan swirled the amber liquid in his glass before tilting his head toward the couple below. \u201cYou truly believe this was wise on your part?\u201d He looked at Kaelith. \u201cTo let them find each other again.\u201d There was a pause followed by a quieter hush.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you not afraid she\u2019ll remember?\u201d Lorcan\u2019s gaze drifted toward the man dancing with her. \u201cAfraid he\u2019ll take her away the moment he realizes who she is?\u201d Silence answered him. A long\u2026 heavy\u2026 deliberate silence. Kaelith smiles. And it should have looked beautiful on his angular and aristocratic face. It should have looked warm. Instead, it looked as if death might wear before claiming a soul. Lorcan felt the temperature around them drop. His childhood best friend raised the glass to his lips, taking a slow sip before his dark eyes returned to the woman below, as though the rest of the world had ceased to exist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe can remember.\u201d His voice came low. Velvet wrapped around steel. \u201cShe can beg.\u201d A dangerous pause. \u201cEven he can bleed for her.\u201d The corner of his mouth lifted. \u201cBut he will never take what chooses to stay.\u201d The confidence in his voice wasn\u2019t arrogance. It was possession. Raw. Ancient. Terrifying. Below them, the music softened. The dancers moved closer.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
