Xee write
My acting father, Mr. Ignazio Vecenzo Thompson. A man who knew exactly how to get under my skin, challenge my composure, and leave me questioning feelings I never should have had for him. I had plans for that day, and none involved becoming obsessed with the man I was supposed to call guidan. But one unexpected encounter changed everything. Curiosity became fascination, and fascination became an obsession I could no longer control. I wanted him in my life for a day… then forever. Soon, I found myself seeking his attention, falling for his charm, and wishing for nothing more than to have a place in his world that no one else could take. But somewhere between our forbidden conversations and stolen moments, my feelings twisted into something far more dangerous. Love. I was determined to keep him, even if it meant standing against the entire world. I thought I knew the man I had fallen for. I thought beneath his commanding nature lay a heart capable of loving me. I was wrong. Ignazio Vecenzo Thompson was no ordinary man. Beneath his irresistible charm lurked a monster, a cold-blooded killing machine with secrets darker than anything I could have imagined. And the more I discovered about the man I loved, the deeper I fell into his darkness. But how could I walk away from the very monster my heart refused to let go of?
