MM Romance

BLURB Noah Bennett thought he was sacrificing his life to save his family. When his family business collapsed under a fourteen-million-dollar debt, he willingly signed a binding contract with Gabriel Cole, the city's most ruthless financial predator. In exchange for his freedom, Gabriel canceled the debt and protected Noah’s uncle from prison. Noah entered Gabriel’s estate prepared to endure his hostility. What Noah didn’t know was that his sacrifice was a lie. His uncle sold him off for a secret forty-million-dollar payout, and his sister’s escape was also staged. Trapped inside a high-security estate with the ruthless billionaire who bought his life, Noah swore he would never break. But when past scandals surfaced, hatred turned into obsession. Bound by a contract he cannot escape, Noah realised that the real danger was never the contract that bound him, but the dark passion threatening to consume them both, because loving his master might cost him his life.

Lucien Sterling has spent his whole life being told exactly what a Top Alpha heir should be; controlled, untouchable and never weak. Then his body breaks every rule he was ever taught. A forced second differentiation turns him into an Omega overnight, and the doctor who has drugged him with wolfsbane tea since he was sixteen delivers the real shock. Lucien is fourteen weeks pregnant, though the pup has only grown eight weeks worth, frozen inside him for two years by the very tea meant to keep him safe. The father is Theo Crane, a bastard son nobody in the city ever gave a real chance to and Lucien's rival. And, according to a bond so rare it was predicted a hundred years ago, his fated mate. Now five Houses want the same thing: the unborn Second Heir who could hand any one of them twenty years of rule over the entire city. An uncle willing to poison the pregnancy rather than lose his own power. A doctor who sees a body, not a person. A desperate House head offering shelter with a price attached. A stranger willing to fake an entire pregnancy just to steal the title for himself. He was raised to rule the city, now it wants what he's carrying.
