Elara flew up the stone steps of her father's villa. She shoved the front doors open, bursting into the foyer with a blinding smile taking over her face."Oh, my goodness! Miss Elara, please be careful!" Martha, the longtime housekeeper, gasped pressing a hand to her chest before a warm, fond chuckle escaped her.Elara didn't even have time to reply. Her eyes immediately locked onto her father, who was just making his way down the staircase.He looked older lately, the stress of losing everything weighing heavily on his shoulders-but the moment he saw his daughter, his eyes lit up.She didn't hesitate. Elara rushed across tackling him into a tight, desperate hug on the bottom step."I did it, Dad! Look! Just look!" she beamed, her voice shaking with excitement as she shoved the leather folder into his hands.Her father blinked, his hands trembling slightly as he opened it.He stared at the finalized documents, the official seal of Pierce Enterprises stamped firmly alongside the domina

She parted her lips and took just the tip into her mouth. The sudden, slick heat enveloping him sent a, full-body shiver straight down Killian's spine. "Fuck.." he groaned, his hips jerking instinctively toward her. "So warm..." Elara glanced up through her lashes, a knowing smile curling around his length. Without breaking eye contact, she pushed forward, taking the thickness of his dick deep into her mouth. bobbing her head while her tongue swirled and stroked, milking every ounce of sensation from him. Killian’s entire body began to tremble. His breathing fractured as he reached down, his hand tangling tightly into her hair, desperate for an anchor as the pleasure spiked. A deep, rumbling moan began to build in his chest, but the second it vibrated in his throat, Elara abruptly pulled back. She released him with a wet pop and sat back on her heels, glaring up at him. "Hold your moan, Killian.." she ordered, her voice a deadly command. "Or I stop entirely." Even on her knee

Patrick's gaze dropped. He saw the heavy, possessive anchor of Killian's arm locked around Elara's waist, and a flash of raw jealousy crossed his face. His jaw tightened, and his fist clenched at his side.The air between them instantly grew thick, vibrating with a volatile, hair-trigger energy. Elara could literally feel the violent tension radiating off Killian, his body going as rigid as steel beside her."Patrick... what are you doing here?" she asked quickly, stepping forward to defuse a bomb before it went off.Patrick tore his eyes away from Killian's death grip, looking at her with a tight smile. "I saw Pierce Enterprises surging back up on the stock market this morning and came to talk to your father about a business venture. I... I didn't know you were still here."Elara offered a polite, cautious smile. "I just came by for family dinner last night and slept over."Patrick's eyes flicked over her shoulder. "With him?" he asked, pointing a trembling finger straight at Killian

A physical lock.In a sprawling, multi-million-dollar estate wired with the most advanced smart-tech and digital security on the planet, Killian had chosen a heavy, old-fashioned physical key to secure whatever was hiding behind this wall.That meant whatever was down there was completely off the grid.Unhackable. Untraceable.A deep, unsettling curiosity clawed at her chest. What exactly was he hiding? Was it a vault? Classified files on his enemies? Or something far darker?"Where is the key?" she whispered to herself, her eyes darting around the oppressive study.She abandoned the wall and rushed back to his executive desk. Her hands flew over the leather blotter, lifting marble paperweights and shuffling through pristine stacks of corporate stationary.
