He was my father’s best friend. My forbidden craving. The man who taught me what danger really feels like. Ares Greeb. cold, beautiful, and older. He was everything I shouldn’t want. And when my father sent me to live with him, I swore I’d keep my distance. But every look he gave stripped another layer off my sanity. Every word he said to me tasted like a dare. He told me I was just a girl. But girls don’t dream like this. They don’t ache when he brushes past. And when I found out the truth the murder he covered up for my father, the secret that binds us tighter than sin I realized something worse. Loving him wasn’t just wrong. It was fatal. Because once Ares touched, there was no going back.
