Maya Collins never expected one reckless night to destroy her life. But when she wakes in the bed of her cold, commanding boss, Ray Cole, panic takes over. It should have been forgotten—a slip lost to the fog of alcohol—but Ray’s piercing eyes tell her he remembers everything. “You remember last night, don’t you?” His voice cuts like a blade, leaving her breathless. From that moment, Maya is trapped. Her job at the Cole Group is slipping through her fingers, her personal life is spiraling, and Ray refuses to let her go. Instead, he gives her a task that’s as dangerous as it is strange: find the owner of a silver angel pendant… or lose everything. Time is ticking. Every step drags her deeper into Ray’s world—one built on secrets, betrayal, and ruthless power. And every heated encounter between them only blurs the line between fear and forbidden desire. His touch is fire, his kiss a threat, his presence a cage she both hates and craves. But when the truth of the pendant begins to unravel, Maya realizes she’s not just solving a mystery. She’s standing at the edge of ruin, where one wrong choice could cost her freedom, her heart, and maybe her life. And the worst part? The man she should run from is the only one she can’t resist.

HIS FORBIDDEN REJECTION Chapter 104
Maya POV“Why are you here?” Ray’s voice cut through the shadows of Zane’s office, sharp and icy. My heart jerked like it wanted to rip itself out of my chest.I froze, one hand hovering over the laptop I shouldn’t have even touched. His sudden appearance made the world shrink. I could feel the weight of his eyes, piercing through me like steel.“I… I—” My voice caught, thick with panic. “Ray, I can explain!”He crossed his arms, jaw tight, storming closer, the floor groaning under his swift steps. “Explain what, Maya? Explain why you’re sneaking into Zane’s office while I’m out of town?”I swallowed, my throat dry. The lie I had rehearsed for hours evaporated under the force of his gaze. I couldn’t tell him about the encrypted files, about Zane’s threats, or how I’d been forced to play his twisted game. Not yet.Ray’s nostrils flared, his anger vibrating through the room, making it impossible for me to breathe normally. “Are you hiding something from me? Are you still—” His voice cra

MAYA POV“Did you think I wouldn’t find you?” The voice slithered behind me like smoke, curling around my chest and squeezing.I froze, my fingers hovering over the keyboard. The glow of Zane’s laptop reflected in his eyes—dark, sharp, predatory. I could feel the pulse of his presence before I even turned.“You…” I whispered, swallowing against the sudden tightness in my throat. “How—how did you get in here?”He leaned against the doorframe, one hand brushing the wood as if claiming it, as if the entire room belonged to him. His smirk was casual, but every inch of him screamed danger. “Did you really think you could play with fire and not get burned? I warned you, Maya. I always keep my promises.”The room felt smaller somehow, suffocating, the hum of the laptop buzzing against my ears. My pulse was erratic; the memories of last night—his figure looming over me, the darkness swallowing the hallway—returned in jagged flashes.“You want something,” I said cautiously, trying to steady my

Maya POVRay’s words were still echoing in my head when I opened my eyes.“It’s not over.”The room was dim, only the red emergency light glowing like a dying ember. My throat felt dry, and my chest was tight, like I had been running through a nightmare I couldn’t remember.I turned my head.Ray sat on the edge of the bed, elbows on his knees, hands covering his face. His shoulders rose and fell slowly, like he was fighting something inside him that I couldn’t see.“Ray?” My voice cracked.He lifted his head, eyes shadowed and tired—more than tired. Haunted.“You’re awake,” he said, standing.“What happened?” I pushed myself up. “The lights—”“It was him.” His jaw tightened. “Zane was here.”The room tilted.“What do you mean… here?”Ray didn’t answer right away. His silence was louder than anything he could have said.“He was in the house, Maya.”My skin prickled. My fingers curled into the sheets.“How? We have security. We have—”“He doesn’t break in. He walks through the shadows.”

Ray POV“Her pulse is fading.”That was the first thing I heard.Not the judge shouting for order.Not the gasps from the gallery.Just that single sentence cutting through the chaos like a knife.I didn’t remember pushing people aside.I didn’t remember dropping to my knees.All I remembered was Maya’s head falling against my chest, her eyes rolling back, and the warmth leaving her skin as if something inside her switched off.I tightened my arms around her limp body.“Stay with me,” I said, my voice breaking. “Maya, open your eyes.”Her lashes didn’t move.Her lips were turning pale.Someone yelled for an ambulance.Someone else pulled at my shoulder, telling me I needed to set her down.I didn’t listen.I couldn’t.If I let go, it would feel like admitting she was gone.A paramedic knelt beside us. His gloved hands pressed against her neck.“She still has a pulse,” he said. “But it’s weak. We need to move now.”My throat closed.Weak.Like she was slipping through my fingers.They
