"My fiancé cheated on me with my best friend, and I told him I'd sleep with any man just to call it even. So, will you sleep with me?" I spat. He took a step back, eyebrows raised."No strings attached? No cuddling, no phone calls, and no matter how good we f**k, we leave it at that." After a one-night stand with the Mafia god, Ace, Aubrey found out she was married to him and no memory of saying yes. But the real shock comes when she learns her ex-fiancé, Xavier—the man who cheated on her with her best friend—isn't just a liar. He's a drug lord. And a killer. Now caught between two dangerous men on opposite sides of a bloody war, Aubrey must navigate a world of secrets, lust, and deadly loyalty. Xavier wants her back—not out of love, but obsession. Ace? He says he doesn't do love. But the way he protects her, touches her, claims her… tells a different story. Torn between the man she thought she loved and the one who just might teach her what real love—and real pleasure—feels like, Aubrey must make a choice. Would Aubrey choose Xavier who she had loved all her life even after finding out he is a serial killer or would she give the Mafia god a chance to show that he can love her better and f**k her better?

"Relax, Ruby. No one is this tense around their fiancé." I tried to do as he said and relax so I leaned further into him and pressed my back to his front which seemed to ignite a different reaction from him. "Not that kind of relaxing. You're only going to get me hard." He hissed in my ear. I smiled and decided to be naughty and play dumb. He held my arm tightly, "Ruby, stop." He warned. "I'm not doing anything, Oliver. I'm merely acting my role. Perfectly." I said innocently. "You really want to play this game?" He replied. "We're executing our role flawlessly. People are watching." I told him with a smile. "Then they'd better gobble this one up." In one swift move, he spun me around and smashed his lips to mine in the presence of everyone present at the party.
