As I stepped into the luxurious penthouse apartment, I couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation. I had agreed to a one-night stand with the ruthless billionaire, Julian Blackwood, and I knew I was playing with fire. Julian was notorious for his cunning business tactics and his ability to crush anyone who stood in his way. But I had to admit, I was drawn to his dark charm and piercing gaze. As he poured me a glass of champagne, his eyes locked onto mine, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. We danced around the tension between us, exchanging witty banter and flirtatious smiles. But as the night wore on, the masks began to slip, and the true nature of our encounter revealed itself.

As the sun began to rise, Julian's grip on me tightened, his voice low and husky in my ear. "You're mine now," he whispered. "And I always get what I want." I knew I had to escape, but a part of me wondered... what if I wanted to be his.
