LOGINShe wasn’t his weakness. She was his ruin, and he would bring the world to its knees before he let her go. *** Kisarel thought she had it all figured out, until the night she caught her fiancé in bed with her cousin. The same cousin who was engaged to her boss, the ruthless and untouchable billionaire, Mr. Oceans Stark. Heartbroken, humiliated, and trapped on a business trip with the man her cousin was set to marry, Kisarel did the unthinkable – she begged her boss to make her forget her boyfriend's betrayal. Oceans swore he didn’t touch his employees. He swore his heart only belonged to a certain strange woman he'd been looking for, who saved his life so many years ago. But the moment Kisarel kissed him, every resolution he made shattered. And after their one sinful night together, Mr. Stark couldn't let Kisarel go. He began to do everything within his power to get her even more entangled in his web of obsession. There were a thousand reasons she should have stayed away from him. She ignored every single one. He knew every part of her belonged to someone else. But every part of him didn’t care. What neither of them knows is that Kisarel was the woman he’s been searching for all along. Now, Oceans is set to call off his wedding with Kisarel's cousin, and he expects Kisarel to also call off her wedding with her cheating fiancé. Kisarel is now tangled in an obsession so hot that it might consume her whole. And Oceans is ready to drown his entire empire just to keep the woman he truly loves.

I can beat the time."I was still chanting it under my breath when I slammed the taxi door and hurried toward Jace's entrance, which was optimistic considering it was already 9:38 and optimism was about all I had left at this point.I had made peace with missing the ten o'clock mark somewhere between the jazz bar and the cab ride over. Eleven was still a reasonable hour. Besides, that was the original time I had asked for, which he vehemently refused to grant me.Besides, the most important thing was to be at his place for the 4am trip. It shouldn't matter when I got there."This is no longer funny, babe," Jace murmured, moving toward the small bar in the corner of the sitting room. He spoke quietly, without heat. "I didn't see any of this coming when you got this promotion.""I'm sorry, Jace. But these things happen." I settled onto the barstool and watched him pour. "You have a PA yourself. You can relate.""I don't overwork her like this." He slid the glass
KISAREL."Girl, you've been checking the time non-stop since we got here," Elgin said, setting his glass down. "You promised me the whole evening. The whole evening, Arel. Those were your exact words. I have witnesses.""You have no witnesses.""Grand-père heard you say it over the phone."I smiled, putting my phone face down on the table. "I'm sorry. I'm here.""You have somewhere to be," he stated.We were tucked into a corner booth at a small jazz bar three blocks from Gerald's house — Elgin's choice, because he had strong opinions about ambiance and had dismissed my suggestion of the eatery down the road with a single expression."I have a trip at four AM," I said. "Sydney. I need to pack a few things and see Jace before—" I stopped."Before?" he prompted."Before I have to be at my boss's place by ten tonight.The silence that followed was Elgin at his most dangerous — completely still, processing me, his eyes doing that thing where they moved over your face like they were readin
OCEANS.We waited for the door to be answered. It took a while, almost like Mr. Gerald was taking his time to decide whether to answer the door or not.The door pulled open a second before I lost my patience, and the man I'd see in the footage showed up looking a bit older. But he was dressed smartly. Just like in the footage. Button-down shirt. Pressed trousers. Good shoes. He was a man who had a knack for looking good when he was younger, I could tell.I had taken Reeves' advice about the clothes. No suit. Dark fitted trousers, a simple black shirt, nothing that announced anything or gave up my real identity. Not because I was ashamed of who I was looking for or why, but because the fewer people who could connect Ocean Stark to a six-year-old shooting investigation, the cleaner everything stayed. My name attached to this search tended to produce more noise than information, and noise was the last thing I needed right now.Plus, Oceans Stark, CEO of Stark Soverign Capital, couldn't b
OCEANS.She rounded the table slowly, and I caught her wrist when she reached me.I pushed my chair back from the desk, creating a narrow corridor of space between myself and the mahogany, and looked up at her."Sit."Her eyes dropped to my thigh and then came back up to my face with an expression that walked a very careful line between alarm and something she was working hard to keep off her face entirely."We're in the office," she said, her voice dropping, clearly trying to be reasonable about something unreasonable. "Anyone could walk in.""Unless they have a death wish," I said, "no one walks into my office without my permission. Except Logan, and Logan and I have already had our interaction for the day." I held her gaze. "Sit down, Kiss."She sat. 'Perched' was the more accurate word — one-sided on my thigh, her back straight, her hands folded in her lap, holding herself with rigidity.I reached up and took her chin, tilting her head until she had no reasonable option but to loo
