His gaze was intense , filled with a mix of restraint and barely contained desire .
The silent warning in his eyes was unmistakable .
If it had been Carly or Nikki , they would have melted under his gaze , but Celine wasnt so easily intimidated .

Alvarez has such a remarkable presence .

She was a contradiction her innocence was captivating , yet she knew exactly how to wield her allure .
