READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. ************************** Avery Fraces thought she had escaped. Leaving behind her dark past, she reinvented herself in Toronto, building a quiet, ordinary life. A new name, a new job...everything carefully constructed to keep her safe. For months, it worked. Until he walked in. Liam Alistaire is no longer the reckless 18 year old she once knew. Now, he's a powerful business tycoon...the new owner of the very company she works for. And worse? He's just made her his personal assistant. Avery wants nothing more than to stay in the shadows, to keep running if she has to. But Liam is a complication she never expected. He's infuriating, relentless, and far too familiar. There's something unspoken between them...something neither of them can name. She knows her past will catch up to her eventually. She just never thought Liam would be the one standing in her way. ****************************

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. Trapped between the revenge she's sworn to finish and the man who's slowly, ruthlessly unraveling her... she soon realizes that Ryder Black might ruin her. But she just might ruin him first.

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. ⚠️

The saying goes that men and women can't have platonic friendships. Natalie and Rafael strongly disagree... they've been best friends since they were 12 and they've never wanted more than that. They're the exception to the rule... or so they think...
