I married the perfect husband. Gentle. Kind. Reliable. But completely unable to satisfy me. For five years I told myself it was enough… until the day I discovered he and my best friend had been betraying me all along. Their son even called him Daddy. Broken and furious, I turned to the only other person destroyed by their lies — my best friend’s husband, Tristan. Quiet. Controlled. A man I barely knew. What started as a cold, physical arrangement for revenge quickly became something I couldn’t control. He’s the first man who has ever made me feel truly wanted, and the more I try to stop, the harder it becomes to stay away. The risk grows higher every time. The lies stack up. And still, I keep going back. Then the pregnancy test turns positive. Now I have no idea who the father is.

I never imagined my life would unravel the moment I stepped back into Bella’s world. Nine years after we swore to be best friends forever, I returned to the city for university—broke, grieving my father’s unsolved murder, and desperate for connection. Reuniting with Bella felt like fate giving me a second chance. But everything changed the instant I literally ran into her father, Marcus Alaric. Fresh from the shower, he caught me in his arms, his strong hands steadying me with a touch that lingered too long. He was nothing like the man I remembered from my childhood. Tall, commanding, and impossibly magnetic, Marcus awakened something in me I couldn’t ignore. No matter how hard I tried to focus on my studies or my boyfriend, my thoughts kept drifting back to him—his deep voice, his quiet intensity, the way his presence filled every room. I knew it was wrong. He was Bella’s father, twice my age, and completely forbidden. I avoided him, buried my feelings, and reminded myself daily of the lines I couldn’t cross. Yet every accidental brush, every late-night conversation, and every heated glance made my resolve crumble. I couldn’t resist him.
