Chapter 2 - Dante Warns Cameron To Step Back From Nora
The deafening bass of the underground club seemed to fade into absolute nothingness as Cameron locked eyes with the terrifying stranger holding Nora.
Cameron’s confident smile faltered for a fraction of a second, replaced by a twitch of nervous confusion across his jawline.
“I said, get up, Nora,” Cameron repeated, forcing authority into his voice while stepping closer to the VIP riser.
The security guard blocking the velvet rope didn't draw a weapon, but his heavy stance blocked every inch of forward movement.
The stranger seated beneath Nora did not flinch, nor did he raise his voice above a calm, conversational murmur.
“She already answered your question, friend,” the mafia boss said smoothly, picking up his crystal whiskey glass.
“You don't know what you're dealing with, mister. She’s my fiancée, and she’s having a hysterical episode,” Cameron lied smoothly.
Nora clutched the stranger’s lapels tighter, her knuckles turning white as she pressed her face against his dark silk suit jacket.

“Look at me, Cameron. Look into my eyes and tell everyone here what you did to my car last night,” Nora whispered fiercely.
Cameron’s face drained of color instantly, the public facade of a caring partner cracking wide open under the harsh lights.
