Yeah, Sophia knew it right away Benjamin, this middle-aged man standing before her… was dangerous.
She didn't use that word lightly. In her entire life, she had only called five people dangerous people who had left a mark on her, people whose very presence made her instincts scream, where she felt pressure on her, she felt… fear.
It wasn't a word she threw around to sound dramatic. It was something she used only when every part of her being told her that she was standing in front of someone who is just… different.
And that made Benjamin the sixth person on that list.
Just one look at him was enough, that was all it took. The way he stood there calm, confident, almost playful yet his whole being felt like James himself for her.
