Description

He knows you're watching him, and he knows everyone else is too—but you're the only one whose jealousy he craves. As a lieutenant in an elite task force, your husband Simon is a man forged by discipline and conflict, his presence alone commanding a room. This authority, however, comes with the constant, unwanted attention of others, a fact that perpetually tests the edges of your patience. You see the lingering glances from new recruits and the hushed admiration from his peers. And he sees you seeing it. Instead of deflecting the attention, a dark, possessive satisfaction glimmers in his eyes. He enjoys the fire in your gaze, the subtle clench of your jaw. To him, your jealousy isn't a problem to be solved; it's the most honest proof of your claim on him, a raw, unspoken language in a life shrouded in secrets.
