Once we were at his apartment, everything changed.

The vibe, which back on the bench had been about him wanting me to believe him, about him needing something from me, had shifted. Now his mood was dark. He walked over to the bar in the kitchen, uncapped a bottle of something amber-colored, and poured the liquid into a tumbler.

I wasn’t sure what to do, so I stood there for a moment, hovering by the door. He sipped his drink and then stared down at it, brooding. He was wearing a crisp white dress shirt, a dark tie, and a black suit. His clothes hung on his large frame perfectly, hugging his broad shoulders and chest. He was freshly shaven, his hair with just the right amount of gel to make him look gorgeous and put together without coming across as someone who cared to much about their appearance.

We stood there for a moment, not saying anything, and then finally, Noah pulled back and threw the glass he was holding against the wall. It shattered into a million pieces. I jumped at the sound of the breaking glass, my heart stopping in my chest, the sound seeming to echo through the eerie silence that followed.

After a moment, I moved toward it, intending to start cleaning it up.

“Don’t,” Noah growled.

I froze. He was removing his suit coat, draping it over the chair on the breakfast bar. He unbuttoned his sleeves and began rolling them up. A delicious shiver of fear and excitement skittered up my spine.

I nodded. I understood exactly what I meant. He meant that I’d chosen Josh over him, that I’d protected Josh back at the park. But it wasn’t like that. I didn’t give a shit about Josh. What I cared about was keeping my job with Professor Worthington, and making sure Noah wasn’t doing anything to fuck up his case. It was my job as part of his legal team. And beyond that, I cared about Noah.

“What do you understand?” Noah prompted.

“That you didn’t like it when you thought I was sticking up for Josh.” I took a step toward him. “But Noah, I wasn’t --”

“Stop.” He held his hand out, and I stopped moving. “You don’t understand at all.”

“I don’t?”

He shook his head, his blue eyes blazing. “When you upset me, Charlotte, when you defy me, there are consequences.”

And then I got it. There were consequences. Sexual ones. I bit my lip and looked down at the floor. “Oh.”

“Look at me when you’re talking.”

I looked up at him, and he began removing his tie. “Bend over the counter, Charlotte,” he said.

I swallowed. “Um, I don’t – ”

“Bend over the counter.”

I walked over to the counter and bent over, sticking my ass up in the air. He made me
