Claimed by the Judge: An Age Gap Romance

He asks, "Do you know that breaking and entering is a felony with a maximum sentence of 12 months in prison and a maximum fine of up to $2,500?"

His face doesn't quite soften, but for a moment, it's not quite as hard. "Get up." When I fail to obey him right away, he grabs my arm and pulls me up. My mouth turns dry as he drags me out of the closet, then toward the bathroom. The guy is easily a head taller than me and unquestionably much stronger.

"Do you want to get arrested?" he asks when we're in front of a big bathtub. You could put a whole koi pond in there.

Is that a rhetorical question? "Uh, no."

He pulls me against him, making me catch my breath. "Then I suggest you do what I say from now on."
