LOGINSkye Hale swore she'd never let another person she loved die without answers. Her mother was silenced by a cartel hit, the case buried by the very agency she served. Skye became the hunter instead. Undercover. Relentless. Willing to burn everything to uncover the truth. Then Zane, the only man who ever made her feel safe, forced her to choose: him or the ghosts. She chose him. They planned a wedding. She almost believed she could leave the darkness behind. Three days before the vows, her best friend Red was gunned down in the same strip club where she danced to survive. The same cartel. The same cover-up. On the morning she was supposed to walk down the aisle, an anonymous file landed in her phone. Proof that Red died trying to help her, and the killer's trail led straight back to the man who once ran her mother's missions. Skye walked out in her wedding dress, left Zane at the altar, and vanished into the night. Now she's deep in Australia's underworld, disguised as a stripper, chasing the same shadows that took everything from her. The addiction she buried years ago is roaring back. Every slow grind on stage, every stranger's hands on her skin, feeding the raw, aching hunger she can't control. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the game becomes. A former colleague wants her dead. A protector sent to save her is hiding his own betrayal. And the man who ordered her mother's murder is closer than she ever imagined. Close enough to touch. Close enough to seduce for the final piece of evidence. One wrong move, and she'll lose her life. One right touch, and she'll lose herself. Skye Hale came for justice. She might leave in ashes.

I had to put something together. Anything. One decent lead before I walked inside and faced the boss.Miss Lin. Twenty years old. Smart college girl. She was driving home from night class when someone ended her life. The scene looked all wrong. Half ambush, half accident. Her car had slammed into the guardrail, but the bullet holes in the windshield and the way her body sat twisted in the seat told the real story. Someone had waited for her. Someone had planned it.From the little digging I had done, her stepbrother had vanished the same exact day. No calls. No texts. Nothing. He disappeared like smoke. That could not be a coincidence.I stared hard at the photos, heart pounding in my chest. If I did not give the boss something solid today, he would tear us apart. Two weeks was not enough time. Not when this fel
We lay there on the cold floor, breathing hard, bodies still pressed together.“I love you, Zane. So much. I don’t ever want to lose you.”The words broke something open between us. Zane pushed himself up and moved off me. He lay beside me without speaking for a long moment. Then he turned and looked at me. His eyes caught the faint city light and they were shining. He reached out and touched my cheek with his thumb. Then he kissed me. Soft. Slow. Like he was terrified I would vanish if he pressed too hard.“I know you still do,” he whispered against my lips. “I just needed to feel it. Needed to be sure you hadn’t stopped loving me the way I love you.”My throat closed up so tight I could barely breathe. “So what do you think?”He gave a small smile. His teeth showed for a second in the dark. “You get so honest when I’m deep inside you. And I love you too. With every damn part of me.” He kissed me again. This time the kiss turned hungry fast. His hands pulled me on top of him.We kept
Red’s words hit me like a slap. The tears stopped instantly. I pushed myself up from the bed and ran to the door. My fingers fumbled with the lock. The moment it clicked open, my legs buckled. Red caught me before I fell.“Skye!”Zara grabbed me too. They held me between them, arms tight around my shaking body. I started crying again, harder this time. “I’m sorry,” I kept saying. “I’m so sorry.” The words spilled out over and over, broken and wet.They pulled me close. I felt their warmth, their tears mixing with mine. Zara eased me back after a moment. Her eyes were red, but her voice stayed steady.“It’s not us you should be apologizing to,” she said. “It’s Zane. He loves you with every piece of himself. You need to go get your man.”Red nodded. Fresh tears rolled down her cheeks.“Go, baby,” Red whispered. “Go get your man. We know you love him.”I looked at them both. My throat burned. “I love him so much. With my heart, my body, my soul. Everything. I love him.”Zara reached up a

His thick cock was buried balls-deep inside my soaking pussy. He thrust up into me with steady, brutal force. Each stroke stretched me wide open and slammed right into that sweet spot until my legs shook. My thighs squeezed tight around his hips. My nails dug deep into his shoulders. My back scraped against the rough wall every time he drove into me. I moaned loud and broken. My whole body jolted from the power of him fucking me raw. "We can't... fuck... Nova, stop. You're Zara's boyfriend." He did not slow down at all. He fucked me even harder. My tits bounced wildly with every thrust. He grabbed them roughly, squeezed the soft flesh, then twiste
