(Logan’s POV)

The silver titanium brace on my left wrist was a constant, metallic reminder of my calculated recklessness. For three days, I’d been marooned in Damian Blackwell’s cold penthouse, a prisoner of his "liability management." The only thing that got me out was Julian Drake’s engraved invitation to the annual Commissioner’s Gala, a high-society event where contracts and careers were quietly brokered over champagne.

Damian thinks he has me contained. He thinks I’m a caged asset. I’m about to remind him I’m a grenade with the pin pulled.

I stared at my reflection in the floor-to-ceiling mirror of Julian’s suite, where I’d changed into the tuxedo he insisted on sending. Black wool, perfectly tailored, dangerously sharp. The brace

  • The Billionaire Alpha's Sin Bin   Chapter Twenty One -The Counter-Revenge

    (Logan’s POV)The taste of coffee and mint, of desperate control and frantic surrender, still clung to my tongue. The pantry kiss hadn't been a disciplinary measure; it was a detonation. Damian Blackwell had broken his own professional covenant for me, risking his entire empire on a desperate, two-minute physical exchange twenty feet from his executive team.He thinks that moment was my end game. He thinks the intimacy is the cage. He’s wrong. The intimacy is the fuse.I lay on the master bed—his bed—later that afternoon, the crisp scent of his laundry and his cologne filling my lungs. The elements had abated, the sun was cutting through the high clouds, but the lockdown persisted. He was back in his office, stabilizing the market fallout from the Thorne leak. And I was

  • The Billionaire Alpha's Sin Bin   Chapter Twenty - The Boundary Breaks

    (Damian’s POV)The night we spent in the shared bed was not restorative; it was devastating. I hadn't slept. I had merely existed in a state of hyper-aware containment, my body's natural heat overriding the sophisticated climate control of the penthouse, all of it directed toward the man curled against my back. Waking up to the scent of him, the feel of his soft, steady breathing against my shoulder, was the final, brutal proof that my control was not merely compromised, it was surgically removed.I am a failure. I am allowing a revenge plot to take root within my own fortress. I am risking everything I built for the temporary, agonizing peace of holding him.Now, I was seated at the head of the confere

  • The Billionaire Alpha's Sin Bin   Chapter Nineteen - The Shared Bed

    (Logan’s POV)The irony was not lost on me: the very chaos I had carefully seeded with the Thorne leak, the one that had Titan’s stock shivering slightly, was now being physically contained by the man I was trying to destroy. Damian was in full lockdown mode, not just because of the press but because of something he wouldn’t name, something that had tightened his security protocols to an impregnable, paranoid degree.For two days, I’d watched him manage the fallout, his face a granite mask, only relaxing when he was tending to my still-braced wrist, a gesture of intimate, terrifying ownership. The heat of the shared kisses was still potent, but my mission was intact. The subtle damage was done. Now, I just needed to escape and watch the ripple turn into a wave.I was restless, stari

  • The Billionaire Alpha's Sin Bin   Chapter Eighteen - The Silver Gift

    (Damian’s POV)The morning had devolved into a necessary, grinding exercise in damage control. Logan’s calculated leak to Markus Thorne, the story accusing me of letting "personal spite sabotage the season", was metastasizing rapidly across the financial newsfeeds. Titan Energy’s stock had dipped a fractional but irritating amount, enough to warrant three unscheduled calls with the Board.Insubordination. Recklessness. Emotional instability. The accusations were poison, meticulously targeted to dismantle the one thing I valued more than wealth: my reputation for absolute control. The irony was suffocating; the accusation was entirely true, yet I was determined to manage the fallout with cold, fabricated precision.I was riding the private elevator down from the penthouse,

  • The Billionaire Alpha's Sin Bin   Chapter Seventeen - Revenge Leak

    (Logan’s POV)My wrist was healing. My legs were no longer throbbing from Damian’s brutal penance. And my heart was dangerously close to compromising my entire mission.He thinks the kiss was a contract. He thinks the intimacy in the locker room bought him silence and surrender. He thinks he’s mastered the variable. He’s wrong. Proximity is just a tool, Damian. And now, I use it.I was alone, which in Damian Blackwell’s penthouse was a relative term. The chef was gone, the driver was downstairs, and Damian himself was confined to his home office, three doors down, managing the fallout of the gala incident. He was dealing with the league’s quiet displeasure over his highly public, possessive display. It was the perfect window.

    First Dinner (The Alpha’s Den)(Damian’s POV)The silence after Logan's admission, "I’m tired of fighting what you feel", was the most dangerous sound I had ever heard. It wasn't surrender; it was a shift in battle strategy. He wasn't fighting me anymore; he was fighting the logic of my defenses.I enforced a new kind of proximity immediately. After an antiseptic five-minute shower in the training facility, I drove Logan back to my penthouse. This time, there was no pretext of injury or liability. This was about containing the truth he had just exposed.The massive, silent space of the apartment had always felt like a necessary shield. It was a
