In a world where love is nothing two broken souls make a pact of pleasure only. No love allowed. Purple Hearts has learned the hard way that love destroys everything it touches. Echo Reid knows love is a lie. Scarred by a past he can’t outrun, For him, intimacy is just a game—a way to numb the pain that never truly fades. “Spread your legs, my sweet Purple,” he groans against her skin, his voice dark “Please…” she begs, her nails digging into his back as pride dissolving “Please what?” he teases, dark and dangerous. “I want you inside me,” she rasps, sweat beading on her forehead as she surrenders to the stranger who makes her feel more alive. His lips trace paths of fire across her body, sending jolts of unfamiliar ecstasy through her veins. But when her hands fly to his face, almost tearing away the mask that hides him from her, he pulls back—cold, sharp, unforgiving. “Sweet Purple,” he says, a smile playing at his lips, “remember the rules.” Before she can apologize, he’s gone—vanishing into the shadows as if he was never there at all, leaving her alone in the silence. “Until we meet again.” But what happens when the masks start to slip? When the lines between pleasure and pain blur? When two people who swore they’d never love again find themselves craving more than just a moment in the dark? Is love truly a tragedy… or could it be the only thing that can save them both?

"Écarte plus largement ces jolies cuisses pour moi, petite muse", grogne Cassian, sa voix rauque comme du gravier alors qu'il épingle mes poignets au-dessus de ma tête avec une grande main, la cravate en soie mordant juste assez ma peau pour me faire haleter. Son autre main glisse vers le bas, ses doigts plongeant dans ma chaleur détrempante, taquinant des cercles lents qui me font me retourner contre lui comme une chose sauvage. "Regarde-toi, dégoulinant déjà sur mes draps. Tu penses que tu peux gérer ce que je veux vraiment te faire ?" Je gémis, mon corps en feu, chaque nerf réclamant davantage. "S'il te plaît, Cassian... j'ai besoin... oh mon Dieu, oui, juste là !" Mes mots se transforment en gémissement alors qu'il enfonce profondément deux doigts, les recourbant parfaitement, son pouce appuyant sur mon clitoris jusqu'à ce que des étoiles explosent derrière mes yeux. Il se penche plus près, son souffle chaud sur mon cou, mordillant mon lobe d'oreille. "Supplie plus fort, Elara. Dis-moi que tu es à moi, à baiser jusqu'à ce que tu ne te souviennes plus de ton propre nom." *** Elara Voss, étudiante en art fauchée, croule sous les dettes et le désespoir.

Des liens en soie l'enveloppent étroitement, ses ordres affaiblissent ses genoux et chaque nuit dans son lit lui enlève une autre couche de son innocence, mais Cassian a des secrets profondément enfouis.
