MY UNDOING
To the world, I’m just Macey Carter. 
 Mason’s little sister. Samantha’s best friend. The girl who somehow landed her dream job as lead designer at Seams & Touch. 
But inside? I’m someone else entirely. 
 Someone who aches to be broken down and put back together by a man who knows exactly how to use me. Someone who craves submission so badly, it’s like a sickness. 
My ex never understood. David was too soft, too careful. He wanted to hold hands and make promises, while I wanted to kneel and beg. When he left me, I didn’t fight it. Two years later, I’m twenty-four, single, untouched, and suffocating under the weight of everything I can’t admit out loud. 
And then there’s Damien Blackwell. 
 My boss’s older brother. Ten years older, sharper, and rougher, with a reputation that makes people whisper when he walks by. 
I shouldn’t want him. 
 But I do. 
 God, I do. 
He’s the finest thing I’ve ever seen. I know because I’ve seen all of him—one reckless afternoon when I walked into his office and caught him taking a woman apart on his desk. She looked like she wanted to disappear, like she hated every second of it. 
And I hated her. 
 Because I would have begged for more. 
Damien promised his sister he’d stay away from me. He told himself I was too young, too close, and too dangerous. For a while, he believed it. But that ended the night he caught me touching myself in my office, late after hours, knowing he was watching. 
That’s when everything changed.
