Chapter Three

Then, at last, at last, his lips found mine. Not kind. Not careful. But ravenous, domineering, devouring. Everything was taken away by the kiss: my thoughts, the ground beneath my feet, and my breath.

His other hand squeezed hard against my waist, locking me within him and the wall, while his gloved hand held my jaw, turning me precisely where he wanted me.

My body arched to meet his as I melted and gasped into him. The awkward way the mask squeezed between us somehow increased the heat, serving as a reminder that I didn't know his name or face, just the overwhelming fire of his mouth consuming mine.

I was shaking, my lips were swollen, and my breath was ragged when he finally withdrew. His eyes pierced me from behind the mask.

"I have you now." And I was unaware of it, thank God.

Once more, the curtain pulled shut behind us, enclosing us in a dark cocoon of muffled music and flickering shadows. Behind their disguises, individuals were laughing and dancin

    I promised myself that I would never return. His voice curling over my ear, the heaviness of his gaze forcing me into surrender without a single touch, I relived the mask party in my mind all week. I ought to have been frightened. I ought to have torn the mask to pieces and set it on fire. Instead, though, I found myself using my fingers to trace its edges at night while visualising his gloved hand. By Friday, I was experiencing a fever-like pain. And I didn't even think twice when another envelope showed up in my mailbox on Saturday. It had a wax seal that glinted in the afternoon sun, but no explanation or return address.I was met by the Crimson Manor. I dressed purposefully this time. My hair was swept up to showcase my neck line, and I was wearing a black silk gown with a slit high enough to see the curve of my thigh. Even though my mask was exactly that as before, it felt heavier in some way, as though it had absorbed all of the secrets I had brought home from that e

    It never occurred to me that one envelope could alter the direction of an evening. It was sleek and stark, sealed with black silicone that glinted in the light as it sat on my dresser. No address for return. No justification. I didn't recognise the meticulous, looping calligraphy that just included my name. I initially thought it was an error, that an invitation had fallen into the incorrect mailbox. However, my breath caught when I opened the thick paper and broke the seal. “You have been invited to a private masquerade party. At 9 p.m. on Saturday night. The Manor of Crimson. Put on black. Put on your mask. Get rid of your limitations.”That was all. No signature, no specifics. That enticing promise alone. I was unable to stop thinking about it for three nights. Masquerade. There was a sense of mystery and eroticism in the term itself. I imagined sparkling chandeliers, Venetian masks, and strangers touching without really knowing who they were touching. I made

    Chapter OneDesperation feels heavier than I ever imagined. Every time I looked at my bank balance, it felt like a stone pressing against my ribs in my chest. Rent is past due. The tuition is past due. Even my meagre part-time job at the bookshop wasn't enough to support me while I was in school. I initially laughed when Nadia murmured, "I know someone who can resolve everything for you, if you're brave enough," while leaning across our sticky diner table. But I paused at the serious, even respectful tone with which she spoke. "Resolve everything?" As I stirred the diluted cup of coffee in front of me, I asked.She had a cunning, covert smile. "He's wealthy. Extremely wealthy. He also enjoys making arrangements. My whole body turned over. "What plans?" She dismissed it, saying, "Until you meet him, you won't understand." "But believe me, you'll pay attention to what he has to offer if you're hoping for your life to change." I ought to have left. I should have infor

    Chapter Five"Mm." He placed his drink on the table and leaned forward. "At night, you continue to wander down here. I'm beginning to wonder. The air around us tightened like a tension wire as I froze. “Wonder what?” “That you're seeking something you shouldn’t.” The tiny strap of my tank top slipped off my shoulder as his gaze trailed over me, revealing my bare legs beneath the lower part of my sleep shorts. He was no longer even trying to hide his eyes. I believed he could hear my heart slamming so hard. To my own surprise, I muttered, "Maybe I do.”The room was filled with a thick silence that pressed down on me, defying my will to move, breathe, or retract it. I didn't. With all his might and discipline, he rose slowly to his feet like a predator emerging from its cave. My pulse hammer became stronger with each stride he took in my direction. When he halted inches away, I had to lift my chin up to meet his gaze. He said, "You don't realise how dangerous that i

    Chapter FourI was awakened before the sun by the aroma of coffee. I briefly lay in bed, confused, and gripped the book he had given me the night before. The way his thumb touched mine and his eyes burned like a secret I shouldn't have known still made my heart race. With each heartbeat, the memories throbbed through me. With my hair in a chaotic state and my hoodie falling off my shoulder, I dragged myself out of bed and went down the hallway. The scent intensified as I approached the kitchen; it was earthy and deep, with a hint of sizzle from cooking on a pan. He was right present.Coffee was steaming in a mug next to him as he stood at the stove wearing a simple white t-shirt with sleeves that were tight around his arms. He was broad and relaxed with his back to me, as if he was unaware that he had totally destroyed my breathing. "Good morning," I murmured quietly, attempting to sound informal. With a slight smile, he turned while holding a spatula. "Good morning. You
