Jacob's POV:
I couldn't understand what was happening to me, but I knew one thing: I couldn't stop myself. When I kidnapped her, I never imagined I'd be so affected by her. The way she looks at me has a powerful hold over me. Each time I locked eyes with her, I felt as though I had entered a completely different world, forgetting who I truly was. I forgot that I was a mafia boss whom everyone feared. I forgot that I had kidnapped her to take revenge on her. I forgot that I had brought her here to hurt her and make her pay for what she did. It was a troubling realization. Despite my best efforts to resist her allure, I found myself unable to do so. Eventually, I succumbed, pulling her close until her back was against my chest.
