When Meryl Armand fell for her alluring, commanding stepbrother, Andre Dario, she gave him everything. Her body, her heart, and her first time were all his for the taking.
But finding herself pregnant and discovering his engagement to another, she fled. Meryl disappeared into the night, carrying the secret of their child and the pieces of her broken trust.
Now, seven years later, she’s a single mom cleaning hotel rooms, desperate to shield her past—and their son—from the possessive Alpha who ruined her. Then one night, he’s there. More powerful, more commanding, and darker than she ever imagined. And he’s decided she belongs to him again.
This isn’t a negotiation. Andre demands total control. Her life. Her body. Their son. And this time, he isn’t asking for permission.
She escaped him once. But now he knows the truth, and a hidden power is stirring in her own blood. He will destroy anyone who stands in his way, but the woman he’s come to claim is no longer the girl who ran.

I whipped around to face the cashier, my voice cutting through the tension. "I'm paying for this myself. Use my card, not his."


The young woman behind the counter looked between us nervously, clearly uncomfortable being caught in the middle of whatever this was. I spoke again, my tone sharper and more demanding. "My card. Now."
