Hermione Hudson juggles multiple jobs, including working at a strip club, to cover her daughter's growing medical bills. It's not a job she wanted, but she has no choice. One fateful night, when a wealthy, powerful man corners her, her ex-boyfriend, Alex Petrov, steps in and takes her to his private room. It's their first meeting in six years—six years since she broke his heart and left him for another man. But Alex is no longer the man she once knew. Now a ruthless mafia boss, he's fueled by years of resentment, yet the moment he sees her again, the tension between them is undeniable. Old wounds, lingering feelings, and unresolved emotions crash over them, pulling them back into a dangerous game neither is ready for. With a fiancée by his side, Alex should have moved on. Yet, Hermione harbors a secret: their twin children, whose existence she's desperate to keep hidden from him. She was his before, and he has no intention of ever letting her go again.
