She was never supposed to cross paths with him. Cherry, New York's most elusive assassin, fueled by revenge and a past soaked in blood... works alone. Then there's Ryder Black. The city's deadly kingpin. Dangerous, charming, and infuriatingly impossible to ignore. A man who commands fear with a glance... and sets her nerves on fire with a touch. They should've been enemies. Instead, he offers her a deal. One that drags her deeper into his world than she ever intended to go. Now she's trapped between the revenge she's sworn to finish and the man who's slowly, ruthlessly unraveling her. In a city built on secrets and violence, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: Ryder Black might ruin her... But she just might ruin him first.

Revenge has been Valerius Medici's only religion. Every deal, every drop of blood has led to one goal, destroying the man who murdered his grandparents. Taking Anastasia Smirov as a so-called peace offering should have been the flawless snare to drag her elusive uncle into his grasp. But the trap backfires the moment he sees her. One glance, and the cold machinery of vengeance begins to fracture. Desire slides under his skin, sharp and addictive. With every breath she draws, the line between hunter and captive blurs. Now obsession wars with duty. His empire trembles on the edge of war. And the love that burns between them could be the most lethal weapon of all, one that might either destroy the Medici legacy or remake it in fire and blood.

Desira has a need to have everything under control, but she was never tempted by the offer of a Dom. In order to play a wicked game, she has to surrender! Will she? ⚠️ This is a mature bonus scene for my story on Episode. Please, do not read if you're under 18. This story contains strong language and sex scenes. ⚠️
