MasukHe was supposed to be one desperate mistake. Instead, he became the most dangerous man she'd ever love. For six years, Amelia Rodriguez lived in a marriage built on bruises, fear, and broken promises. The night her abusive billionaire husband hit her in front of their daughter, she knew she had only one choice—run. Desperate for money, Amelia accepted a one-night job at an exclusive club, where she spent one unforgettable night with a mysterious billionaire. By morning, she was gone, determined to leave that mistake—and her old life—behind forever. But fate has other plans. A new job brings Amelia face-to-face with Grey Brentwood, the cold, irresistibly handsome CEO she thought she'd never see again. Grey can't forget the woman who disappeared after one night, and the closer he gets to her, the more obsessed he becomes. But Grey is hiding a deadly secret. Behind the polished image of a billionaire CEO lies the ruthless leader of the country's most feared biker gang. When Amelia's abusive husband returns to claim his wife and daughter, Grey will burn down anyone who stands in his way to protect them. But can Amelia trust a man whose hands are stained with blood... or is falling for him the most dangerous mistake of all?

I could hear my own heartbeat pounding in my ears, fast and loud enough to drown out everything else.Every warning siren in my head was screaming at me.I had already given myself enough reasons to stay away from him. The moment he realized I was Amy from the club should have been enough to keep me at a safe distance. But if he dug deeper and discovered I was Matthew's wife...What would he think of me?Would he even listen to my side of the story? Or would he look at me like I was just another liar who had played him?My thoughts were running in circles, but then his lips pressed against mine again, and everything went quiet.All that common sense dissolved the second his hand brushed my jaw.I parted my lips and kissed him back.My knees almost weakened beneath me as I melted into him. I wrapped my
~~Amelia~~The moment the call dropped, I groaned and collapsed backward onto the bed, letting the mattress swallow me whole.My bones felt like lead, and the jet lag was sitting heavy behind my eyes. But I couldn't afford to fall apart. Staying away from Matthew meant making my own living, and that kept me moving.I sat up, unzipped the front pocket of my suitcase to pull out the files Grey had asked for, and kicked off my shoes into the slip-on sandals I had brought with me.With a heavy breath, I walked out of my room and gave a light tap on his door.“Come in,” his voice called from the other side.I pushed the door open, and my breath caught hard in my throat.He wasn't wearing a shirt. He must have just stepped out of the shower because dark, wet strands of hair clung to his damp forehead.A thick white towel was wrapped low around his waist, and before I could stop myself, my eyes dropped straight to his chest.A hot, sudden jolt hit my stomach, sharp and embarrassing.“Never
The second the car crunched onto the gravel of the hotel courtyard, I looked out the window and saw him.My blood turned to ice water, every inch of my skin freezing over like a winter windowpane.Matthew.My stomach rolled over, a hot wave of nausea clawing its way right up my throat. What was he doing in Chicago? Out of all the sprawling, crowded blocks in this entire city, how was he standing right outside the exact hotel I was walking into?Was he tracking me? Did he somehow know I’d be on that plane?A hundred frantic questions buzzed inside my skull like trapped hornets. The tinted glass of the car window felt like a paper-thin shield, the only thing keeping me invisible. As long as I stayed in this backseat, he couldn't see me.“Amelia?”Grey’s voice cut through the panic. For a terrifying second, I had completely forgotten he was sitting right beside me. I couldn’t let him see this. I couldn’t let him know I was falling apart.I swallowed hard, forcing my eyebrows up and stre
Grey’s POV“My father said you’d be here, so I came to see you off,” Amanda said, standing beside me as we watched the plane taxi toward the runway.“You didn’t have to come.” My eyes stayed on the plane. I barely had the patience to stand there, let alone listen to her.“Yes, I did.” She nodded. “I remember back in the days when you used to go on business trips. I—”“Amanda.”I cut her off before she could finish.She went quiet.I rubbed a hand over my jaw, already wondering where the hell Amelia was. If she were here, I wouldn’t have to stand around listening to Amanda drag up memories I had no interest in revisiting.Amanda turned to me.I looked back at her, my expression flat.“You need to go home,” I said. “I appreciate you coming to see me off, but it wasn't necessary.”Her lips parted, ready to argue, but a familiar voice came from behind us.“Mr. Grey.”I turned.Amelia was rolling her suitcase toward me, slightly breathless, a few strands of hair falling around her face. “
