“I hate you,” I choked out as he sank deep, teeth scraping over my nipple.
“Liar,” Kai growled, fist tightening in my hair as he drove harder. “Your cunt is soaking for the guy who used to make you cry, freckles. Say you’re mine.”
“Never…this is all pretend. We’re pretending,” I trembled even as my body arched into him.
“Then you won’t mind if I ruin you completely.” He pulled out, leaving me empty and desperate.
“Ruin me. Break me. But I’ll never belong to you.”
Kai’s dark chuckle vibrated against my throat as he slammed back in. “Good. I live for a challenge.”
....
Elara has spent years quietly loving her best friend, Elias—the golden, easy-going one who never saw her that way. She never expected his half-brother to return.
Kai, the sharp-tongued childhood bully who once made her life hell, is back in town after years away. What Elara doesn’t know is that Kai never forgot her. Distance only sharpened the obsession.
When her parents arrange a political mating to a powerful alpha to secure an alliance, Kai steps in with an offer: he’ll pretend to be her boyfriend. It will buy her time, force Elias to finally notice her… and keep the arranged mating at bay.
But the lie starts to taste real. Kai’s touches linger too long. His jealousy burns too hot. And the twisted game he offered was never about helping her win his brother.
It was about keeping Elara for himself.
Because Kai doesn’t share.
And the moment Elara let him close, she didn’t just wake an old rivalry—
she woke up something far more dangerous.
