Biker's Forbidden Desire
He was my brother’s best friend. My first love. The first man to ever taste me.
Six years ago, Axel “Ghost” Cruz vanished, leaving my heart shattered and my body aching for a touch that never came again. I tried to bury the memory of him, trading the heat of the clubhouse for a cold, safe life in the city with a man who doesn't know how to make me scream.
But my father’s murder has dragged me back to the world of leather and sin. And Axel is waiting for me.
He’s no longer the boy I remember. He’s a massive, tattooed enforcer with eyes that strip me naked and a voice that feels like a dark caress. He is forbidden—my brother’s most lethal weapon and the one man I should never let touch me again.
But when he traps me in the dark of the garage, his rough, scarred hands sliding over my skin, my body remembers everything. I’ve spent six years pretending I’m a lady, but one growl from him and I’m just his. The air between us is thick with a hunger that could burn this whole club to the ground
Now, with a war breaking out and my brother watching my every move, I have to decide: do I stay safe and hollow, or do I surrender to the man who owns every inch of me?
In this world, some sins feel too good to stop—and some desires are worth the ruin

Chapter: Chapter 5 When Reapers Walk InEMILIA POVThe front door burst open before Marco could argue further. Five men in Crimson Reapers colors strutted in like they owned the place. I recognized their president immediately Victor "Viper" Kane, a man whose reputation for cruelty was legendary even by MC standards.Kane was tall and lean, with pale eyes and graying hair slicked back from his angular face. Expensive suit instead of leather, but the gun under his jacket was visible to anyone who knew how to look."Marco," Kane said pleasantly. "Sorry to interrupt your family reunion.""Victor." Marco's voice was ice, cold. "You've got some balls showing up here."Kane's gaze swept the room, cataloging the number of Iron Serpents present before landing on me. His smile turned smug."And you must be the famous Emilia," Kane said, taking a step in my direction. "You've grown up nicely."Every Iron Serpent in the room tensed. I felt Axel move up behind me, his presence solid and reassuring."Back off, Victor," Marco warned."Rel

Chapter: Chapter 4 The Lie I Couldn’t TellEMILIA POVI opened my mouth to do exactly that, but the lie wouldn't come. Instead, I found myself leaning into his touch, my body betraying every rational thought in my head."That's what I thought," Axel said with satisfaction.And then he was kissing me.years of careful control shattered in an instant. His mouth was hot and demanding, claiming mine with a desperation that matched my own. I kissed him back helplessly, my hands fisting in his leather jacket, all my good intentions crumbling to dust.This was what I'd been running from. This consuming fire that burned away everything else, leaving only need and want and the terrible knowledge that no other man would ever affect me like this.Axel's hands tangled in my hair, angling my head for deeper access. I could taste the cigarette on his tongue, feel the barely leashed violence in his touch. He was dangerous and wrong for me in every way that mattered.And I wanted him with a desperation that scared me.The sound of the back do

Chapter: Chapter 3: Ghosts Don't KnockEMILIA POVThe ride to Desert Ridge took six hours, and every mile felt like traveling backward through time.I'd forgotten what it felt like to be pressed against Axel's back, my arms wrapped around his waist, feeling every breath he took. The motorcycle thrummed between my thighs, powerful and dangerous, just like the man controlling it.We stopped twice for gas and food, barely speaking except for necessity. But I caught him watching me when he thought I wasn't looking, his green eyes unreadable behind dark sunglasses."You still eat like a bird," Axel observed at our second stop, nodding toward my half, finished sandwich."You still eat like you're feeding an army," I shot back, watching him demolish a burger and fries.The corner of his mouth quirked up. "Some things don't change."But everything had changed. The easy familiarity we'd once shared was gone, replaced by tension thick. Every accidental touch sent sparks through me, but Axel remained frustratingly controlled.As we g

Chapter: Chapter 2: Blood and AshesEMILIA POVI stared at the phone for a full minute after Marco hung up."Who's Axel?" Sofia asked quietly.My throat felt like tight. "My brother's best friend.""And?" Sofia prompted, settling back on the couch.I set the phone down with shaking hands. "And the reason I left home in the first place."The tequila burned in my empty stomach. I hadn't eaten since the plane landed six hours ago. Six hours ago when my biggest problem was surprising my cheating fiancé.Now my father was dead. The Iron Serpents were at war. And Axel Cruz was coming for me.Sofia poured another shot and pushed it toward me. "Start from the beginning.""I was sixteen," I said, downing the tequila. "He was twenty, two. Marco's best friend and Dad's enforcer.""Enforcer?" Sofia raised an eyebrow."The guy who collects debts and handles problems," I explained. "With his fists usually."Sofia nodded. "Okay, so older guy, dangerous job. I'm guessing your dad didn't approve?"I laughed bitterly. "Dad caught us toge

Chapter: Chapter 1: The Perfect LieEMILIA POVThe key turned silently in the lock. I wanted to surprise David.I dropped my suitcase by the door and kicked off my heels. The apartment was quiet except for sounds coming from our bedroom. My heart started racing for all the wrong reasons."David?" I called out softly, my voice echoing in the empty hallway.No answer. Just muffled voices and movement.I crept down the hallway, each step making my chest tighter. The bedroom door was cracked open. Through the gap, I could see tangled sheets and bare skin that didn't belong to just one person.My hand trembled as I pushed the door open.David was in our bed. With Rebecca. My best friend her blonde hair spread across my pillows while she straddled my fiancé.They both froze when they saw me."Surprise," I said, my voice sounding flat and cold.David scrambled to sit up, pushing Rebecca off him. "Em, this isn't... I can explain...""Explain what?" I stepped into the room, crossing my arms over my chest.Rebecca pulled the shee
