No matter how far I run, Nick Hudson finds me.
I’m a pawn in a twisted game of power and revenge. And he’s a masterful player.
He’s going to hold me and hurt me, protect me and punish me. In a dangerous world of wealth, decadence, and sin, I have no choice but to sink into the arms of my enemy.
There’s a price to be paid, though. I must surrender control to enter this new wonderland of seduction. And I must learn to find strength for the fight that’s coming. Being a Morelli has never been so dangerous.

I slam my fist into my bedroom wall, furious and suffocating with the urge to kill someone. Bloody knuckles mix with the black soot from the fire I just spent hours fighting. Black and red. Fury and death.
Where. The. Fuck. Is. She? My voice pops through the air like bullets being fired from a gun.
I want answers even though the way my security look at me—wide-eyed, fear visible in their stance—I know they don’t have them to give. Did you search the entire house?
It’s a stupid question. If she’s not here in my room where I left her, or at the very least in her own room down the hall, then she’s not in the house.
I know this. I don’t even know why I’m bothering asking the question other than to try to damper the raging madness inside of me by asking mundane questions.
We did, sir. How is it that my security team has no idea where Lyriope is?
What the fuck do I pay you for? And why the fuck haven’t I just shot you both through the eyes because of your carelessness?
The question burns my tongue, and I have visions of cutting out someone else’s tongue in retaliation.
We were all extinguishing the fire, Harrison defends, stepping in with confidence. He’s the only one in this room with the balls to actually speak the truth to me.
Everyone was at the dock. His eyes lock with mine, silently telling me to calm the fuck down. Our focus was on putting out the fire before authorities came.
I take a deep breath, knowing he’s right. We were all there. The entirety of my available staff. We left Lyriope alone. Vulnerable. A flashing beacon just begging to be stolen.
