Age Gap

Weak to Strong

Sloan Vale isn’t just a billionaire—he’s a king in a world built on whispered names, silk-bound power, and decadent sin. By day, he’s untouchable. Polished. Controlled. But by night, he rules The Crimson Order, a secret society where the elite indulge their darkest desires and make deals sealed with blood and pleasure. He’s never had a reason to break his own rules. Until her. Ivy Sinclair is a broke, brilliant art student just trying to survive. When she delivers a painting to an exclusive event, she stumbles into a hidden world she was never meant to see. Sloan’s world. The moment he lays eyes on her, he knows she doesn’t belong. Too innocent. Too pure. Too tempting. She should have run. He should have let her. But instead, he offers her a choice: walk away and forget what she saw… or surrender to him and learn just how deep the rabbit hole goes. Ivy agrees but she’s not as innocent as she seems. As Sloan draws her deeper into his dangerous orbit, he finds himself addicted to her softness, her fire, her secrets. She awakens something in him that’s been dormant far too long. Obsession. Protection. Lust. But Ivy didn’t stumble into his world by accident. She’s running from something darker. Something deadly. And when her past collides with his empire, both of them will have to decide what’s worth more: power or passion. Vengeance or love. In a world where everything comes with a price… will she be his salvation, or his ultimate ruin?

CHAPTER 1
It was nearly midnight when I added the final stroke. My hands trembled, not with exhaustion, but with the cold that has been living in my bones nowadays. The kind brought by hunger, by fear, and by the unanswered question that haunted me: Is Willa still alive?The warehouse-studio reeked of turpentine and desperation. Faint light from a single standing lamp stretched shadows high against the concrete walls. My canvas, a tempest of ivory and crimson, wrapped around the outline of a quivering female form still glistened wet. My fingers were clotted with pigment and despair.I hadn’t slept in two days. I’d lost interest in food about a week ago. And Willa? My seventeen year old sister hadn't returned my call in five.I placed the heel of my hand against my chest, attempting to soothe the thunder pounding beneath my ribs. No credit card transaction history, no leads, she just… disappeared.Suddenly, rhe phone rang, disruption the queit of the night and cutting my train of thoughts. 12:0

CHAPTER 2
The corridor behind the black door was quiet. My boots sank into thick carpet as I followed Sloan deeper into the building. Lights, even muted, glowed amber and gold, casting illumination on art hung in gilded frames, women with slightly parted lips, men cloaked in smoke and power. Power, decadence, secrecy—everything in here exhaled it.We stopped before an unmarked door of polished mahogany. He unlocked it with a brass key."This way," he said, not looking at me.I hesitated briefly, then went in.The suite was a sanctum more. Black velvet drapes that seemed to be charcoal, a chandelier of crystal that was twisted and hung low over an obsidian table. All of which glowed in muted opulence. This was not wealth for display—it was for intimidation.A bed. Imperial, large, the headboard inlaid with dark mirrored glass. There was something in the way that said this was not for sleeping."This wing is yours," Sloan said. "You'll remain here unless I summon you."I turned around to him. "Yo

CHAPTER 3
Hours passed but I could not sleep.His fingertips were like ghost fire on my skin, but beneath the churning tension there was more—questions. This wall housed so many secrets. That woman at the ritual had trusted her handler absolutely. What would cause someone to give over so completely?I had no clue. But I was determined to find out.Slipping out of bed, I wrapped a cashmere shawl around my shoulders and padded barefoot down the hall. The house was quiet, but I could feel it waiting. Far in its bones, this house was alive.I found the study two doors down. Unlocked.There were floor-to-ceiling books along the walls inside. A glass tray had a half-full decanter of amber whiskey. The fireplace was cold but there was still the scent of burnt cedar in the air. I ran my fingers along a row of spines, titles in Latin, philosophy, eroticism, war. One book had a hidden cutout in the middle. A flash drive inside. I removed it.Behind the desk, I saw a framed photo.Two men.One was Sloan—

CHAPTER 4
The sound was soft.A rub against the door frame, not quite enough to rouse most from their sleep but I was different.I was a light sleeper and I had not slept soundly since my arrival here. Only waiting. Like an animal that sleeps with an open eye.But tonight, exhaustion had finally overtaken me. I’d curled into the sheets in the oversized bed, the candle burned low on the dresser, my body heavy with the weight of too many questions. Somewhere between midnight and now, sleep had taken me down.I stirred when the door opened. No knock. Just the soft hush of it swinging inward. My lids blinked open in darkness, instinct rising in icy flood.Immediately he entered, his scent filled up the room. I was so sure it was Solan and my tension eased, just a little. He crept like a shadow—determined, silent, unwelcome and inexorable. He didn't hesitate. He didn't ask. He entered my room as if he owned it. As if he owned me.He was dressed in black. A long-sleeved shirt, black trousers, covered

CHAPTER 5: The Unseen Corners
IVYAn ache was the first sensation that registered. It was a deep all-encompassing throb that settled in every muscle and joint rather than a sharp incapacitating pain. My body felt like it had been used as an especially strenuous jump rope after running a marathon. My eyelids fluttered open blinking against the soft diffused sunlight that painted the opulent room in shades of gold and shadow as it streamed through the heavy drapes. Who knew obedience was such a workout? I got up and stirred the silky sheets tangled around my legs. A brief moment of light vertigo brought on by the sudden movement caused my head to swim but it was soon over. My cheeks flushed from the mild smell of him that was still permeating the air and the warmth that was still on my skin. My mind was filled with vivid unfiltered memories of the previous evening. Sloan. His hand. What he said. His complete and terrifying dominance. My lips formed a tiny uncontrollable smile that was a peculiar combination of l

CHAPTER 6: The Twenty-Minute Mystery
IVY.The breaking vases sound tore through the mansions quiet a deafening explosion that seemed to reverberate in my very nature. With a panicked frightened drumbeat my heart pounded against my ribs. The threat-laden snarl lingered in the air. I was caught. Absolutely totally captured. My thoughts were racing like a crazy hamster on a wheel. The thought of running through a mansion full of terrifyingly efficient guards while naked under a blanket was almost as embarrassing as facing Sloans wrath. Should I run hide or try to explain away the sound as a clumsy ghost? Or should I face the music draped only in a blanket looking like a particularly pitiful toga party attendee? Almost. I went with option number two. I took a deep trembling breath bit my lip so hard I tasted blood and then turned slowly and painfully. As soon as they saw me the two burly men in dark suits started to turn their faces changing from professional alertness to confused surprise. Im sure it was quite a sight

CHAPTER 7: Getting ready
IVY.Oh boy.Sloans cryptic statement lingered in the air leaving me both completely perplexed and oddly fascinated. My entire body felt like a live wire still tingling from his touch and the echo of his possessive words. The vases broken state on the floor was evidence of my awkward listening. However the immediate danger had subsided. With Sloan gone and the guards gone I was left alone in the large quiet foyer still holding onto the blanket covering my nudity. After the initial shock I immediately wanted to run. Where though? Going back to the room where he had just. . . claimed me or going farther into the mansion and running the risk of running into a silent guard or a fragile priceless artifact again? Retrenchment was the best course of action the most sensible choice and the least embarrassing. I wasnt going to stray and end up in another off-limits area. My immediate plan was to return to my room. I padded swiftly and soundlessly back up the grand staircase and down the we

CHAPTER 8: The Breakfast Table Inquisition
IVYNow I knew why Sloan had said I'd find out in twenty minutes.Sloan did not change his expression. After maintaining eye contact with me for a brief moment he gave a subtle command by pointing to an empty seat close by. “Ivy come on in.”I entered with a sheepish demeanor acutely conscious of every single person watching me. The people continued to stare at me their gazes pressing down on me like physical weights. As I walked up to the table I was so nervous that my hands were shaking a little. My heart was pounding and I was fairly certain that my face was the same color as the red gown I was wearing so I slid into the vacant seat and tried to look casual. They looked at me their faces still without a smile as if I was some intruder. Apparently, I was. I tried a thin smile a last-ditch effort at being courteous but it felt artificial and stiff. In an attempt to identify these individuals I quickly looked at the faces around the table and tried to classify them. First the wo

CHAPTER 9: With a physical blow.
IVY.Sloan's booming had caused the dining room to fall silent. There was an unsaid tension in the air that was thick enough to choke on. Although Alissa the fiery redhead was clearly agitated and her eyes were still blazing she closed her mouth tightly her disobedience simmering beneath the surface. With her cold eyes the woman in black just watched a barely noticeable smirk on her lips. Both the man who resembled Sloan and the thin man with the lethal expression remained unmoving. For my part all I wanted to do was sink into my chairs luxurious velvet. Moments before my food had been perfectly edible but now it tasted like ash. The remainder of breakfast was spent in awkward silence. The only sounds were Sloans sporadic almost exaggerated chewing and the faint clinking of silverware. Nobody was willing to speak. I the unexpected visitor was the main attraction during this master class in awkward dining. My stomach was churning instead of being hungry when I tried to eat. Every q

CHAPTER 10: The Inquisitiveness
IVY.What visions? I had blurted out the words before I had had time to comprehend them. The universe decided to add a side of supernatural phenomena just when I thought my life couldn't get any stranger. Just a smile from Sophia the ethereal girl with the long black hair. She smiled in a kind sly way as if she knew the punchline to a cosmic joke that I didnt. “Oh dont mind what I said” she said in a gentle tone dismissing the momentous revelation with a wave of her hand. “Simply a rhetorical device. Its just the way it is. I dont know how it is Sophia.”Despite her smiles charm my brain screamed in disapproval. Predicting peoples names or implying they are engaged in visions are not typically examples of figures of speech.“Come on” She said in a light voice. “Allow me to lead you back to your room before you you know run into someone else who might choose to treat you badly” I laughed letting out a real laugh as she winked her eyes glinting with playfulness. This house had at le
