From the start, he already knew Kayden didn’t want him there. Well, Noah felt the same. He hated this entire messed-up situation. If it weren’t for his mother, Noah would have never agreed to live under the same roof as her new family. However, he couldn’t just let her stay alone with a man she’d married after knowing him for six months. What he didn’t expect even more was to end up in his stepbrother’s bed one night, completely lost in the desire to be owned by him, forgetting entirely how much they hated each other. They hated each other, yes, but they also hated how their bodies couldn’t resist each other’s desires, even when they knew it was wrong.

Lena never expected her life to change overnight. One minute, she was just another invisible girl scraping by—dodging bills, counting coins, and pretending the weight of survival didn’t choke her daily. Then came Kai Ashford. A billionaire with a cold smile and eyes that saw through everything. He plucked her from the shadows and wrapped her in silk, marble, and secrets. Designer clothes replaced thrifted rags. Penthouse nights took over sleepless street corners. Everything she ever dreamed of was handed to her no questions asked. But nothing in Kai’s world is ever free. As Lena is pulled deeper into his luxurious web, she begins to realize she isn’t just living in his world she’s owned by it. Every choice, every glance, every step has been calculated. Her comfort is his control. And the deeper she falls, the harder it becomes to untangle what’s love… and what’s manipulation. Because Kai didn’t save her. He claimed her. And her entire existence may be the price she never agreed to pay.

"Then make sure you pick a nice suit for me. I trust your taste will impress her." When I freeze and say nothing, Yuri opens his eyes and lets out a carefree chuckle. "Hey, Ophelia, what kind of reaction is that? We're just casual lovers, right? Don't tell me you actually thought I'd make you my future Luna?"
