Asher’s eyes swept the park restlessly. The night sky was dark, but the glow of scattered lamps lit the paths well enough that anyone could be found, anyone except Tessa.

His chest tightened with worry. She had never sounded so shattered before, her voice trembling through the phone in a way that had made his chest ache. That was why he had run out here because he couldn’t ignore that kind of pain.

He headed toward the playground. It was nearly empty now, just a few people moving about. Still, no sign of her. With frustration and worry poking at him, he lifted his phone and pressed call.

“Where exactly are you, Tessa?” he asked, his voice low but urgent.

“Come to the Merry-Go-Round. You’ll see me.”

Asher cut the call and broke into a faster stride, weaving past the benches until he reached the far corner of the playground. Then he finally spotted her standing with her back to him. She wasn’t moving, just staring at the carousel, its empty horses spinning in slow, lonely circles.

  • His Little Temptress    Blood in the Rain

    It became so difficult for Damien to breathe. His chest rose and fell in a shallow, broken rhythm as he leaned closer and saw Vladislav smiling, though his eyes were red, and his body trembled.“I’m glad we both understood what love means before we depart,” Vladislav whispered, and Damien’s throat tightened, his eyes filling with chilling red.“We didn’t start on a good foot, and of course, we were just partners,” Vladislav continued, his voice fading. “But you’re someone I could call my best friend, Wolfe. Thank you for being a good partner and a friend. It means a lot to me.”His trembling fingers lifted weakly toward Damien’s face, but Damien’s jaw only clenched harder, his silence heavy with everything he couldn’t say.“One more thing, Wolfe…” Vladislav’s voice shook. “Please tell her I’m sorry I couldn’t fulfill my promise. Tell her I love her so much and that I wish I’d met her earlier, before joining this business… maybe in the next life.”Damien didn’t answer. He just stared a

  • His Little Temptress    Bond and Bullet

    Blade and Karim stood the moment they saw Vladislav emerging from between the trees, the weapon bag slung over his shoulder.His steps were slow, even but the pain on his face said everything words couldn’t.He was drenched in blood, dirt, and grief.Neither man spoke as he approached.They just watched as he reached the rocks where Damien lay shirtless, his skin pale under the flickering firelight, his chest barely moving, so it made them wonder if he was still breathing.Vladislav stopped beside him, stared for a heartbeat then dropped to his knees.The sound that tore from his throat was low and guttural, a mix of rage and grief that made even Blade flinch.“It’s better you stand up now, Wolfe,” Vladislav rasped, grabbing Damien by the shoulder, his voice trembling. “I just lost Sergio… I can’t lose you too.”He tugged weakly at Damien’s chest, desperate enough to believe that if he held on tight enough, Damien would start breathing again.Blade turned his head away, blinking hard

  • His Little Temptress    Till the Last Breath

    The sound of rushing water filled the silence. The rustle of trees, the sound of their own breathing, even the faint hum of insects that usually filled the night. Damien lay shirtless on the rock. His chest rose and fell so faintly that for a moment, it was hard to tell if he was still breathing.No one spoke.Niko stared blankly at the water, his gun limp in his hand. Karim crouched nearby, his head bowed, his fingers buried in his hair. Tomas stood a few feet away, eyes fixed on Damien’s unmoving body, jaw clenched so tightly the muscle twitched. The intel guy sat with his back against a tree, his face covered with tears he refused to wipe away.Vladislav knelt beside Damien, elbows on his knees and silent as stone. Every now and then, his gaze flicked toward the wound; checking, waiting and hoping.And then there was Blade.He stood a little apart from the rest, his eyes locked on his boss, the man who had pulled him out of the kind of darkness most men never returned from. The fi

  • His Little Temptress    The Ones He Saved

    Graves slid off the settee and also sat on the floor, his gaze distant, as if he were staring through the walls.“My old man had a little body shop in Queens,” he began, voice low and rough. “He didn’t make much, but it was enough. He was the kind who worked with his hands, oil under his nails, always smelled like metal and smoke. My mom kept the books and my sister followed her everywhere.”Lila and the men stayed silent, watching him carefully.“One day,” Graves continued, “a guy showed up and said he needed his car repainted overnight. My father told him no. The guy didn’t like that. Then he smiled when he left and said he’d ‘be back.’”Graves’s jaw flexed, a muscle ticking near his temple.“He came back that night. Three cars, maybe four. I was upstairs, by the window. I saw them pull in.” His voice faltered for a second before hardening again. “I thought it was a dream, at first. The noise… it didn’t sound real. Then I heard my mother scream my father’s name. Then the first shot

    “What are we going to do?” Blade’s voice cracked as he stared at Damien lying limp across Vladislav’s thigh. Blood soaked through the fabric under him, dark and heavy.Vladislav’s jaw clenched. He was trying to stay composed, but the fear in his eyes betrayed him. He glanced down at Damien, pale and motionless, before forcing himself to look at Blade.“He needs water,” he said, voice low but tight. “I’m sure he’ll be fine. The bullet didn’t stay long.”Blade nodded quickly, though his throat burned with disbelief. “One of them said there’s a waterfall at the far west end of the forest. Behind it is where he’s hiding.”“Fine.” Vladislav shifted, pushing to his feet. “We need to move him there fast.”He bent, muscles tensing as Blade crouched beside him.“Put him on my back,” Blade offered.“No,” Vladislav said sharply. “I’ll carry him. You and the intel keep watch.” He pointed toward the guy, who swallowed hard and nodded.The forest around them was deathly still, except for the distan

  • His Little Temptress    The Omen

    Lila and Asher were walking side by side, Tessa following close behind and chatting, when Lila suddenly stopped and pressed a hand to her chest.“What’s wrong?” Tessa and Asher asked at the same time, both moving closer to her.But Lila didn’t answer. Her breathing quickened as she gripped her chest tighter, as if trying to hold something inside, to stop the ache building there. A cold rush of dread swept through her, heavy and sharp. Something wasn’t right. She could feel it deep in her bones.Her hands trembled as she fumbled for her phone, stepping away from them to make a call. The unease gnawed at her, familiar and terrifying all at once.It wasn’t the first time she’d felt this way. And every time that feeling came, someone she loved was in danger.The last time she’d felt this way, it had been Tessa.That day, the same cold fear had crept up her spine, and she’d immediately called her uncle. Lucien had assured her he was fine, laughing it off in his calm, steady voice. But when
