You are so reckless, Raven, so heedless of danger. He gripped the back of a chair so hard the wood threatened to disintegrate into dust. As it was, it would hold the imprint of his fingers for all time.Danger, Mikhail? She tipped her head to one side, her hair falling in a slide over one shoulder. Her hands went to the top button of her blouse. I would never be in danger from you, even if you were furious with me. The only danger right now is to my clothes. She took a step back, laughing again, letting the sound warm him, ignite the fuse deep inside him.
