I went to my brother's house expecting dinner. Instead, his best friend looked at me like he wanted to ruin me. Sebastian De Luca. My brother's oldest friend. Dark eyes. Controlled. And not the kind of man you say no to. I should have kept my distance. Instead, I let him pull me onto the dance floor of his nightclub. Then into his bed, before I could remember why men like him are dangerous. One night was supposed to get him out of my system. Instead, two pink lines changed everything. Then my violent ex found me. And suddenly, nowhere felt safe anymore. Sebastian moved me into his mansion that night. Guards at every door. Eyes on every camera. He didn't ask. He decided. Now it's not just protection. It's possession. And God help the man stupid enough to come for what's his.
