Slowly, he kneeled down beside me and gently brushed a finger across my cheek. He leaned in closer, and before I could react, his lips met mine in a soft, hesitant kiss. His touch was light at first, exploring, then it deepened, his lips moving down to my neck. The kisses started gentle, but suddenly they turned more intense. I felt a sharp bite—a mix of pleasure and pain that made me gasp.


Tyron was my dream come true, a knight in shining armor who had somehow become real. He protected me with fierce determination, as if I were a fragile thing that could shatter at the slightest touch. Deep in my heart, I loved him—more than words could ever say.

But the city around us was in chaos.

We were running, his hand gripping mine tightly as we dodged enemy fire. Bullets flew past us, each one a threat, and in a split second, everything could end. I felt my heart pounding wildly as I called out, “I love you, Tyron!”

He pushed me quickly into cover, returning fire at the approaching enemies before he turned and shouted, “You can’t love me!”
My chest tightened. “But why?!” I demanded, confusion rising within me.

"Because...” His voice broke, and he glanced away, pain etched on his face. “Because I can’t love you!”
He pulled me forward, finding a new place to hide. I was flustered, embarrassed, yet I couldn't let it go. “Are you... are you married?” The question slipped out, ridiculous as it was in the middle of a battle.

“I’ve never been married.” He looked back at me, his gaze as unyielding as ever.

“Then why—why can’t you—”

Before I could finish, he pressed his lips to mine, silencing my words in a kiss that was both desperate and tender. When he pulled back, his voice softened—a sad whisper. "This... this is all I can give you—a kiss.”

In that moment, I knew he would risk his life for me but never his heart. And as he pulled me from our hiding spot, leading me back through the chaos, I understood that love was the one thing he would never allow himself to give.

“Miss Ashford, your identity is already dead.”

“But I’m still alive.”

That night, on my birthday, I lost everything.

My father was killed by our enemy, my family was destroyed, my mother was gone, and my younger brother disappeared without a trace. And I, the once untouchable Ashford heiress, became a fugitive hiding in the shadows, fighting for my life.

To escape the people hunting me, I abandoned my luxurious life, changed out of my designer gown, and hid my true identity aboard a ship.

But I quickly learned that losing my wealth was not the most terrifying thing.

The most terrifying thing was realizing that in this world, no one cared who I used to be.

Just when the Moretti family found me and prepared to erase the last survivor of the Ashford family, a man appeared.

Dmitri Solovyo.

The Russian boy who was once tortured and despised had become the ruthless leader of the Bratva.

He arrived with a gun in his hand and death in his eyes, pulling me back from the edge of destruction.

I recognized his eyes.

Because many years ago, I was the one who gave a piece of bread to that wounded, abandoned boy.

I never expected that the boy who once needed saving would grow into the man everyone feared.

Dmitri is cold, dangerous, and a man who trusts no one.

He says he saved me only because—

Excerpt
Leon kept my attention fractured, his mouth moving between my lips, throat, chest, every kiss slow and consuming.
Luca planted another kiss against the inside of my thigh while his hands held my legs apart.
The contrast between the brothers was unbearable.
“You have a beautiful pussy,” Luca murmured.
Leon laughed before dragging his mouth lower across my chest.
“You should taste her, brother, she tastes like heaven.”
The sound that left Luca almost resembled amusement.
“Please,” I breathed.
Leon laughed again. “That desperate already, princess?”
“Yes,” I admitted, which only made both brothers look dangerously pleased with themselves.
Luca’s eyes lifted briefly toward mine, before he finally gave me what I wanted.
The first drag of his tongue made my entire body jerk against the mattress.
Leon groaned as his mouth moved across my chest, while Luca continued devastating me with impossible patience.
Luca tasted me slowly, deliberately, like he had all the time in the world.
Leon bit my nipple again as Luca’s tongue slid over my clit in another slow, unbearable stroke, my back arched hard enough that Leon had to catch me against his chest.
“That’s it,” Leon murmured approvingly. “Good girl.”

His voice drops to something closer to a growl, one so deep it makes me react. "Behave yourself, princess. Otherwise, I'll have to deal with you myself. And you won't like that very much."
He is my bodyguard. I flee, he pursues. In my darkest moments, when I've sought to end my own despair, he's there—inescapable as a scourge, yet his presence is laced with an odd sense of protection. My emotions are a tangled chaos: I hate him, I love him, I desire his presence yet find it unbearable. Is my judgment so flawed?

My world seemed to crumble after my mother's passing—she was the sole nurturing force in my life. Then, as if conjured from the void, my father emerged, staking a claim to parental rights over a daughter he had abandoned for eighteen years. Bereft of options, I followed him, preferring his home to the desolation of an orphanage, oblivious to the fact that I was relinquishing my freedom. I was to become a mere commodity, traded to the highest bidder, my virgin a currency in his unscrupulous dealings. Yet, he remains ignorant of one crucial fact: despite being shadowed, surveilled, and shackled, I am resolute in my quest to dismantle the very foundation of his prized reputation—the facade of a benevolent businessman.
And the man he hired as my lookout, turns out to be the deadliest temptation for me...

I flicked my gaze up toward her, and she grinned down at me. She tipped the wine glass back and downed the entire contents in two gulps. Was she trying to get trashed?

Genevieve’s hand on the back of the chair slipped, her eyes widening as she began to fall.

I hadn’t moved that fast in ages.

I swooped in and wrapped my arm around her waist to hold her up. In doing so, though, the robe twisted in my grasp and opened further, Genevieve’s bralette the only thing standing in my way of seeing her beautiful body.

It took every ounce of willpower to drag my eyes back up to her face where she watched me carefully. There was a drunken sheen to her eyes, but her face was a beet red. It was more than the alcohol. I knew this because she averted her gaze and pressed her trembling lips together. She was embarrassed. It was fucking adorable.

“I’m sorry,” she breathed out.

“Maybe you’ve had enough for tonight.”

Genevieve nodded softly, still refusing to look at me.

“Maybe I’ll go to bed.”

Genevieve Blake was a well-known, almost famous, erotic romance author. She enjoyed meeting her fans and writing stories that made even her blush.

Instead, it led me straight to Dante Moretti.

The city's most feared mafia heir.

Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable.

And apparently the last person my father ever trusted.

Dante claims he can protect me from the people hunting my family.

I don't believe him.

Especially after I discover that my father's murder isn't the only crime connected to his family.

Students have been disappearing from the university.

A secret society controls the campus from the shadows.

And someone is sending me photographs of places I've never visited—with messages telling me that I'm next.

When I am kidnapped and Dante rescues me, the horrifying truth becomes clear.

The killer isn't trying to silence me because of what my father knew.

They're trying to silence me because of what I inherited.

Now Dante and I are trapped in a deadly game where every ally could be an enemy, every secret could be a death sentence, and falling for each other could be the most dangerous mistake of all.

Because the deeper we dig, the more obvious it becomes—

My father's murderer has been watching me from the beginning.

And he may be much closer than either of us imagined.
