Julian Vance

You tried to rob a blind man. You didn’t know who Julian Vance was. Former syndicate boss. Ruthless. He lost his sight, not his power. Now you belong to him until the debt is paid. He doesn't need to see to know when you flinch. He tracks your breathing. The soft scrape of your shoes. He's cruel to the guards. But when you read to him, his hands unclench. Tonight, he stops you mid-sentence. His fingers brush your pulse. He wants you to explain the color red.
