LOGIN**Warning: This book contains mature sex scenes, "I hate you," she whispered — breathless, furious, aching. "I hate you more," he growled back. And then he made her forget every man who came before him. Rhaena thought she knew what was missing from her life — until her boyfriend called her boring in bed. Two years together. Not a single orgasm. Done with shame, done with faking, she makes a decision that will unravel everything: one night, one stranger, an elite escort and a dark sex club where no one knows her name. The masked man who finds her there doesn't just give her pleasure. He ruins her — for every other man, for every careful, curated version of herself she's ever performed. But when she leaves, a message arrives: a refund. A record that says she was never there. And before she can make sense of it, her mother drops another bomb — she's engaged. There's a dinner. A mansion. A future stepbrother named Alessio, who looks at Rhaena like she's a problem he wants to destroy. Cold. Hostile. Magnetic in a way that makes her teeth ache. When she overhears him cutting her apart with words, she doesn't run. She fights back. And something ignites between them — sharp as a blade, hot as a wound — something neither of them is willing to name. Because the line between hatred and desire isn't just thin. It's already been crossed. What happens when Rhaena realizes the masked man who woke her body, who owned her in the dark — is her future stepbrother? What happens when Alessio discovers that the woman he can't stand is Cherry — the one he can't stop thinking about? Some secrets don't stay buried. And some hatreds are just love that hasn't lost control.
View MoreRhaena's POVThe sound cut through the quiet apartment like an alarm, sharp and jarring and completely unwelcome.He pulled back from the kiss with a low sound of frustration but didn't reach for the phone, just pressed his forehead against mine, eyes closed, waiting for it to stop.It stopped. Then immediately started again."It might be important," I said softly.He groaned - that full-body groan of a man being pulled away from something he'd rather be doing - and pressed one more quick, firm kiss to my lips before reluctantly reaching for his phone on the counter.He glanced at the screen, and something flickered across his face. Not guilt exactly. More like resigned irritation."It's Dove," he said, his eyes meeting mine carefully, watching for my reaction.Something cold settled in my stomach, but I kept my expression neutral. Nodded once.He hesitated for just a fraction of a second, like he was considering ignoring it, before answering and putting it on speaker."Hey," he said,
Rhaena's POVBut I couldn't. Not yet. Not when we were still figuring out what we were to each other. Not when adding that complication might change everything."Rhaena," he said, leaning forward and taking my hand, threading his fingers through mine. "You have nothing to worry about when it comes to Dove. Things between us are over. Have been over for years, really. The hookups were just... convenient. Familiar. Easy. But they meant nothing.""And this?" I asked, gesturing between us. "Does this mean something?""This means everything," he said without hesitation. "You mean everything. That's why I turned her down. That's why I haven't even looked at anyone else since we met. That's why I can't stop thinking about you, can't stop wanting you, can't stand the thought of you thinking I want anyone else."The sincerity in his voice, the intensity in his eyes, made me want to believe him. Made it hard not to believe him."You really don't have to explain yourself to me," I said quietly,
Rhaena's POVI hoisted myself onto one of the bar stools and watched as he moved around the kitchen with easy, confident competence.He plated the pasta with practiced efficiency, twirling it into perfect nests on each plate. Adding the sauce - creamy with visible flecks of pepper and crispy pancetta. Drizzling it artfully. Sprinkling fresh parmesan over the top. Adding a sprig of fresh basil as garnish.He could have worked in a restaurant. It looked professional, magazine-worthy.He set a plate in front of me with a flourish, then moved to the wine fridge and pulled out a bottle of white wine - something Italian and expensive-looking.He poured us each a generous glass, then took the seat next to me rather than across from me, angling his bar stool so he was facing me rather than facing forward.Close. Intimate. Like he wanted to be able to see my face, read my expressions, gauge my reactions to everything he was about to say.For a moment, we just looked at each other. The air betw
Rhaena's POVHis words combined with the relentless pounding were pushing me rapidly toward the edge again."Come for me," he commanded, his hand leaving my throat to snake between us, finding my clit and rubbing it in tight, perfect circles. "Come on my cock right now. Show me you're mine. Show me this body belongs to me."The combination of his cock pounding into me at this devastating angle and his fingers expertly working my clit sent me flying over the edge hard and fast.I came with a scream, my inner walls clenching rhythmically around him, waves of pleasure so intense they bordered on painful crashing through every nerve ending in my body. My nails dug into his shoulders hard enough to leave marks even through his shirt."Fuck, yes," he groaned, his rhythm becoming erratic as my inner walls milked him. "That's it. That's my good girl. Come for me. Only for me."A few more desperate, erratic thrusts and he was coming too, burying himself as deep as humanly possible and holding
