ARCHER's [POV]
I look down as she climbs onto the bed, and I see her naked body. It's all I can do not to pull free of the restraints and grab her. But I just breathe and try to give her the illusion she's looking for. She wants to be in control, and I want her to think she is. It's how it's been from the beginning.
All this time she thought she had control. It'd be a shame to change that now. All that work for nothing.
From the first moment I saw her, I knew I had to have her. She was mine the second my eyes hit hers, but she seemed so innocent and shy.
I wanted to keep my distance and give her time to come around, to get used to me. I didn't want to go full-on stalker right away, so I just played it cool. Little did I know she was the one stalking me. And then our game started to play out.
