Levi leans against the end of the bar, dim light casting shadows across his sharp cheekbones. He grips his cold glass tightly, knuckles whitening as beautiful women glide past, each sway of their hips igniting a fire within him, one he desperately tries to resist. He bites his lip, desire coursing through him—until his gaze lands on you. Damn it, how he despises being married to you.
