MasukShe 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.

She knew me well enough by now to know that when I said I'd knock, I'd knock until the whole street woke up.And what the fuck was she still doing at Jace's house?I'd been too buried in my own mess lately to look closely into the part where she was still sleeping under that bastard's roof, adamant about leaving his house and moving into the apartment I bought her with my own fucking money.Fuck.My life was coming apart at the seams, and the control I'd spent years building was sliding right out of my hands, and I couldn't claw it back no matter how hard I gripped.I knew she was here. She had to be.I pressed the doorbell for the third time, and she didn't open it; the next desperate thing my head was already cooking up would put those good guards at the gate in real trouble. And I was slowly losing every fuck I had to give right now.They knew my face. Jace clearly hadn't thought to warn them about me, because a couple of easy smiles, a name ever
KISAREL.By the time I reached Jace’s house, my makeup had already started to betray me.I went straight upstairs before anyone could wonder what had happened, locked myself in the bathroom, and stood over the sink with both hands gripping the marble.My reflection looked wrong under the white lights. Wet eyes, smudged mascara, and bangs sticking slightly to my forehead because my skin had gone cold and sweaty at the same time.My phone wouldn’t stop glowing.Oceans.Missed call.Missed call.Missed call.Texts stacked under his name like he had suddenly remembered I existed after letting the whole world watch me stand outside his engagement like a mistake.A wet, ugly laugh broke out of me at how stupid I looked on that queue.This was all intentional, wasn't it?There was no way in the world Oceans hadn't known that I needed an invitation to get into the venue.He had all the time in the world to tell me, and not once had he mentioned that I'd be stopped at the entrance like a stran
OCEANS.For one second, she had nothing... No expression to give, and no beautiful little words ready at the tip of her tongue.It was all just blankness.Then her lips parted. But before she could answer, Fred appeared beside us with a smile already in place.“Everything all right here?” he asked warmly.Moonie’s head turned so fast it almost snapped. “Daddy.”She stepped back at once, pulling her public face together, as she took one of the glasses from him, her fingers trembling so much that the champagne shivered.Fred’s hand settled on her shoulder to stop her from shaking as his eyes moved to me.“What’s going on?”I turned my gaze to Moonie.Her face had recovered, mostly. But not her eyes.Her eyes still carried the answer she hadn’t given me. Answers she was going to give me after tonight.*“I’m glad we could keep this on track despite the… noise this week.” Fred said with a smile.“What noise?” I asked.He held the second glass toward me. “You know how these things are.

KISAREL.Heat rushed to my face.“That’s impossible.”The second guard shifted, blocking more of the doorway without making it obvious. “Please step aside, ma’am. Other guests are arriving.”Other guests...I looked behind me, and more people were already standing in the queue, watching keenly."This must be some kind of a sick joke." I scoffed in disbelief, embarrassment mixing with my cheek blush. “I work directly with Mr. Stark,” I argued. “Can you call someone inside? Chris from reception, or Reeves, or—”“I can't do that, ma’am,” the first guard interrupted me. “We can’t disturb the hosts for unlisted arrivals.”Unlisted arrivals...Those words hurt in a way that'll haunt me for a while."My aunt just walked in. She's family. I'm family—""Miss." His voice stayed flat and polite. "You'll need to step aside. You're holding up the entrance."The other guard had already angled his body as if preparing to escort me away, and there was nothing more embarrassing than that.I thought ab
