A Night of No Return

Lucas's secretary, Emma, drove through heavy snow to deliver documents to her boss, but when she arrived, Lucas kicked her out. Known for his calm demeanor, it was unlike him to act out... Though, come to think of it, he acted strangely last year on this same day. The weather worsens, and the two find themselves alone in his old castle. Emma is determined to help him deal with the past scars he confided in her and accepts his sudden kiss, followed by a steamy evening together. But will this merely be a single evening of comfort...or the start of something more?
