I jumped to my feet fast.Grabbing my clothes as fast as I could, I pulled them on in silence, fingers fumbling with buttons, not bothering with anything I couldn't find in under ten seconds. Maggie remained at the door, head turned toward the bed.Zedd shifted.We both went completely still.He released a long exhale. His arm stretched across the sheets — across the space where my body had been — and then stayed there. His breathing evened back out.Maggie grabbed my wrist, and we moved.Cool morning air hit my face the moment we stepped out of the hotel. It was only when the cab door closed behind us that I breathed again.The cab door had barely closed before I turned to Maggie."How did I get there?"She looked at me for a long moment, like she was deciding how much to say. Then she exhaled."You would not stop drinking. I tried, goddess knows I tried, but you were somewhere else entirely by the time he walked into your line of sight." She paused. "You spotted him across the room

Delilah’s POVThe elevator doors slid shut again, sealing me in sudden silence. The charged electricity of thirty seconds ago vanished as if it had never existed. My fingers trembled around the black card. My thighs were slick, my underwear ruined, my core still pulsing with the aftershocks of what he had done to me. I stared at the card. It was simple and elegant, with his name embossed in silver. Alpha Zedd Vale.What the hell have I done?Shame burned hot across my skin. I was still technically married. Papers or no papers, bond or no bond, I had just let another man finger me to orgasm in an elevator inside my husband’s building, in broad daylight. The humiliation sat thick in my throat. I could still feel his fingers stretching me, his voice low and amused against my ear. Little storm.Anger followed fast. It was anger at myself. Maggie had been right there. I could have walked away. I could have taken the stairs. Instead, I had stayed, pushed, and let him unravel me because som

Alpha Zedd’s POVI watched Karyk stand frozen in the doorway like the pathetic, spineless worm he had always been, and a deep, primal wave of satisfaction flooded my entire body.Delilah was still beautifully flushed, her chest rising and falling with shallow, unsteady breaths. The sweet, musky scent of her recent orgasm hung heavy in the air, mixing with the faint trace of her jasmine perfume. My cock throbbed painfully against the confines of my trousers, rock hard and leaking, demanding to be buried inside the woman who had just come so perfectly on my fingers. I wanted nothing more than to bend her over this desk right now and fuck her until she forgot Karyk’s name existed, but I kept the expression on my face perfectly calm and controlled, almost most bored even. No one, especially not this worthless excuse of a man, would ever see how deeply Delilah Moonbane affected me.Guilt flickered across her face the moment her green eyes met Karyk’s. I hated it. She had nothing — absolu

Alpha Zedd’s POVThe image of Delilah touching herself had consumed me for two fucking days.No matter what I did, I couldn’t get it out of my head. The way her back had arched off the bed. The way her thighs trembled. The soft, desperate sounds she made as her fingers worked her pretty pussy. I had forced myself to stay away. If I had seen her any sooner, I would have lost every shred of control and fucked her raw until she couldn’t walk. But today my restraint was hanging by a thread.Delilah was currently sitting on my lap, her perfect ass pressed firmly against my painfully hard cock. I could feel the heat of her through our clothes. Without her noticing, I pressed the remote on my desk, locking the office doors with a quiet click. No one would ever see what was mine again. Never.I kept my voice low and steady. “Stand up, little storm.”She rose slowly, legs slightly unsteady. Her green eyes were wide, stunned by my earlier command. Good. I wanted her off balance.I stood as wel

Alpha Zedd’s POVI had been watching Karyk Moonbane for years.Long before Delilah ever became mine, I had one of my most trusted men embedded deep in his circle. It had nothing to do with the fool, he did not interest me. I simply had to do it because of the woman he married. I knew his routines. His weaknesses. His pathetic coping mechanisms. So when his empire began collapsing under the weight of the data leak and the compounding losses, I knew exactly where he would crawl to drown his failures — that dimly lit bar downtown where weak men go to pretend they’re still strong.I had planted the idea myself through my associate. A few carefully placed words over whiskey: “If a woman ruins your life, you go remind her who’s really in charge. That’s what a real man does.” Karyk, drunk and seething, had swallowed it whole. That was how I knew he would show up at her door exactly when he did. The cameras I had installed in her house years ago had simply confirmed it.Now, as evening light
