Except... My stomach knots at the image of those intelligent eyes
Amber
He doesn't know her name. He literally just laid eyes on her, but yep, he suddenly can't imagine harm coming to her because she's beautiful and noticed obvious things that somehow makes her 'smart'. I'm literally tired of men in these books taking one look, having some basic assumptions, and then from 0 to 100 they want to essentially protect/stalk/lust after her. why??? cause she's pretty? I need more concrete reasons, like skip the 'he wants in her pants cause she has a pretty face', and say he's intrigued because she wiggled her way onto a closed off crime scene and is investigating outside the scope jurisdiction. That's more believable.

Neva Altaj
“Tell me, Nina, if there wasn’t this deal between us, would you have come when I nodded?” he asks. “Nope.”
I don’t expect him to ask me to elaborate, but he does, and his question surprises me. “Why not? Is it because of the wheelchair?”
He says it conversationally, but there is a hidden undertone I can’t quite define. I abandon watching the crowd and look him right in the eyes. “It’s because I’m not a poodle, Mr. Petrov.”
Neva Altaj, Painted Scars

“And so being young
and dipped in folly,
I fell in love
with melancholy.”

“No one will be teaching you Russian, but me. Got that?” “Got it, kotik.” I close my eyes and shake my head. “You do not call a Russian pakhan ‘kitten’, Nina. I have an image to uphold here.”
Neva Altaj, Painted Scars

“Because you are beautiful. I enjoy looking at beautiful people, and I decided a while ago not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence”
