The roaming eyes of a nearby lioness were sensed then. They may undress him with their eyes or shred his clothes with their teeth, either way made him sneer with disgust.

When his attentions returned to Madam Yun, they were no less stern, but the edge of danger was blunted. “Business. And pleasure,” his gaze slid down her fine form.
