hyperventilating, she would never know. Grabbing the strap of the backpack he’d just put down, she jumped to her feet, noting somewhere in the back of her mind that her earlier paralysis seemed to be gone.
    “Bye, Mia. I will see you later.” His softly mocking voice carried in the clear spring air as she took off, nearly running in her haste to get away.

    Kidnapped. Taken to a private island.

    I never thought this could happen to me. I never imagined one chance meeting on the eve of my eighteenth birthday could change my life so completely.

    Now I belong to him. To Julian. To a man who is as ruthless as he is beautiful—a man whose touch makes me burn. A man whose tenderness I find more devastating than his cruelty.

    My captor is an enigma. I don’t know who he is or why he took me. There is a darkness inside him—a darkness that scares me even as it draws me in.

    My name is Nora Leston, and this is my story.

    I t’s evening now . With every minute that passes, I’m starting to get more and more anxious at the thought of seeing my captor again.
    The novel that I’ve been reading can no longer hold my interest. I put it down and walk in circles around the room.
    I am dressed in the clothes Beth had given me earlier. It’s not what I would’ve chosen to wear, but it’s better than a bathrobe. A sexy pair of white lacy panties and a matching bra for underwear. A pretty blue sundress that buttons in the front. Everything fits me suspiciously well. Has he been stalking me for a while? Learning everything about me, including my clothing size?
    The thought makes me sick.
    I am trying not to think about what’s to come, but it’s impossible. I don’t know why I’m so sure he’ll come to me tonight. It’s possible he has an entire harem of women stashed away on this island, and he visits each one only once a week, like sultans used to do.
    Yet somehow I know he’ll be here soon. Last night had simply whetted his appetite. I know he’s not done with me, not by a long shot.
    Finally, the door opens.
    He walks in like he owns the place. Which, of course, he does.
    I am again struck by his masculine beauty. He could’ve been a model or a movie star, with a face like his. If there was any fairness in the world, he would’ve been short or had some other imperfection to offset that face.
    But he doesn’t. His body is tall and muscular, perfectly proportioned. I remember what it feels like to have him inside me, and I feel an unwelcome jolt of arousal.
    He’s again wearing jeans and a T-shirt. A gray one this time. He seems to favor simple clothing, and he’s smart to do so. His looks don’t need any enhancement.
    He smiles at me. It’s his fallen angel smile—dark and seductive at the same time. “Hello, Nora.”
    I don’t know what to say to him, so I blurt out the first thing that pops into my head. “How long are you going to keep me here?”
    He cocks his head slightly to the side. “Here in the room? Or on the island?”
    “Both.”
    “Beth will show you around tomorrow, take you swimming if you’d like,” he says, approaching me. “You won’t be locked in, unless you do something foolish.”
    “Such as?” I ask, my heart pounding in my chest as he stops next to me and lifts his hand to stroke my hair.
    “Trying to harm Beth or yourself.” His voice is soft, his gaze hypnotic as he looks down at me. The way he’s touching my hair is oddly relaxing.
    I blink, trying to break his spell. “And what about on the island? How long will you keep me here?”
    His hand caresses my face, curves around my cheek. I catch myself leaning into his touch, like a
