Bound by his secret Ameera Clarke has always known how to fight for survival—working endless shifts, barely keeping her sick mother alive, and holding her world together with nothing but grit and late-night prayers. When she lands a job as secretary to the ruthless billionaire Kevin Black wood, she tells herself it’s just another paycheck. Another mask to wear. But the first time she steps into his office, her breath stills. Those piercing eyes… she’s seen them before. Under the moonlight. In the shadows of a night she swore she’d never speak of again. Kevin Blackwood is every rumor come true—cold, merciless, untouchable. He thrives on control, and Ameera’s defiance is the one thing he can’t bend to his will. She infuriates him. Challenges him. Tempts him. And the more he pushes her away, the deeper she burrows under his skin. But Kevin has a secret. One powerful enough to ruin them both. And when past and present collide, Ameera will have to decide whether to run from the man who could destroy her… or fall for the one she can’t resist. One thing is certain: in his world of power, lies, and dangerous desires—love is the most dangerous game of all.

Chapter 18: Kevin's POV "What’s all this for, Grandfather?" I asked, watching people move in and out of the house with crates of flowers and decorations. "Ah, my favorite grandson is here!" he said with a bright smile. He began walking toward me with his stick. I quickly closed the gap between us, considering how slow his pace had become lately. He patted my back, and I couldn't help but give him a genuine smile. "All this is for your beautiful grandmother," he said, looking around the estate with pride. "You know she doesn't like elaborate events," I reminded him. "Oh, please. She’s just pretending," he chuckled. "Alright. Just don't call me when she locks you outside for the night," I said, heading toward my old room. His laughter followed me down the hall. My grandparents were all I had left. I would do anything for them, especially to keep making memories like this. My grandmother was turning eighty, and it felt like the whole country was celebrating her existence. Grandad

Chapter 17 Ameera's Pov "Where were you last night?" Michael asked as he placed a cup of hot chocolate on my desk. "I’d like to ask you the same thing," I said, taking a sip of the chocolatey goodness. "I had some assignments to do during the day. When I came back, I saw your purse on your desk, but you were nowhere to be found," he said, eyeing me suspiciously. "I was… in the restroom." "Liar," he countered. "Don’t you have work to do?" I asked him. "We’re keeping secrets now, huh?" He folded his arms over his chest. It made me laugh. "Fine, fine, I’ll tell you everything," I said, giving up. "Do you know there’s a secret roof—" "Don’t you both have work to do?" Kevin’s voice boomed as he strode in. We both froze, eyes wide. Michael did a slow 180-degree turn to face him. "Yes, sir. I actually just came to drop something off," Michael said, clearing his throat and shifting back into full business mode. "Leave," Kevin said immediately. Michael did as he was

Chapter 16 Ameera's PovFlowers. Everywhere.It looked like the company had turned into a giant garden. Each bouquet screamed expensive, like they’d been specially grown for this exact purpose. And of course, they were all in front of my desk. Every single one addressed to Kevin.Michael wasn’t around for breakfast, so I didn’t have anyone to gossip with about it. I ended up sitting with Lily. We usually just exchanged polite “hellos” at work, so this was new.“Hey, Lily, what’s up with all the flowers?” I asked, eyeing the piles stacked around me.“Oh right—you’re new here.” She leaned in, lowering her voice. “Today’s the day Mr. Blackwood’s parents passed away.”“His parents?!” I nearly choked.She nodded. “People send flowers from all over the world. His father was a huge influence before his death, and so was his mother.”I stared. Was it terrible that I had no idea Kevin was basically an orphan?“He’s not in the best of moods this time of year,” Lily added.“Hmm. Can’t really bl

Chapter 15 Ameera's Pov“Why didn’t he ask me to drop him off?” Michael asked as we sat together for breakfast.He had hot chocolate and meat rolls; I had coffee and donuts.“I don’t know, he probably didn’t want annoying people around him,” I teased, smirking.Michael laughed. “Yeah right. If that was true, you’d be the first person he asked to stay back.”“But he didn’t, right?” I said, taking a sip of my coffee.He shook his head. “I was scared he’d sacked you though. When I saw the new guy—”“Oh, he can’t do that. It’s not like I did anything wrong.”“Well… that’s what I thought about the guy before you,” I said, grinning.“Yeah, I heard you were the reason he got sacked,” Michael shot back, laughing.“No, I wasn’t,” I added quickly—even though I knew full well I was.---“Are these everything?” Kevin’s voice cut through my thoughts as he scanned the paperwork I’d placed on his desk.“Yes, sir.”He leaned back in his chair, his eyes locking on me. The same way they had last nig

Kevin's Pov Every damn meeting was more boring than the last. Old fools, each one of them. I was convinced at least one of them had a hand in my parents’ deaths. The more I looked at their wrinkled faces, the more I wanted to pull my gun out and end it all right there. “Kevin, come over here,”

Ameera's PovWe were finally back in New York.Mr. Blackwood hadn’t flown with us—apparently, he had “more important things” to take care of. And besides, it wasn’t like he’d ever fly on the same plane as us. Honestly, I was more than grateful for that.I slept through most of the ride back, my bod
