Remy, tall and imposing, bent down to pluck a random rose. He tore off a petal, placed it in his mouth, and chewed thoughtfully. "Sir wouldn't take her like some wild animal," he mused. "He'd make Ms. Alyssa fall for him willingly, bit by bit."

Jameson shuddered.

Alyssa, on the other hand, didn't feel overly terrified. More than that, she felt curious and suspicious.
