He swore he'd never come back, yet his father's death forced him into an empire he despised. Ruling over a criminal dynasty alongside a mother and brothers he loathes, he finds himself trapped in the very world he rejected. Then he meets Selena—his father's former mistress and trusted assistant. She's intelligent, composed, and dangerously captivating. The attraction is instant and consuming, igniting fantasies of dominance and control he can't suppress. He insists their relationship remains purely professional, a convenient arrangement within the organization. But the undeniable chemistry between them burns too intensely to ignore. As power dynamics shift and boundaries blur, he discovers that possession—of her, of this feeling—might be the only thing worth claiming in his inherited empire.
