Cairo Vergara has always been calm, collected, and effortlessly untouchable. But after her return from Europe, something's changed-something Jaz Robles can't ignore. Jaz has always been obsessed with her. And now, she's determined to make Cairo feel it too. "You think I've forgotten about you?" Jaz whispers, her voice thick with desire, her fingers trailing dangerously close to Cairo's lips. "I don't think you ever will," Cairo responds, her calm exterior betraying the fire burning inside. Jaz's obsession has only grown stronger over the years, but Cairo's not the same person she was before. She's distant, cold even-but Jaz isn't backing down. Cairo can feel it: the pull. The heat. "You belong to me," Jaz's words are a soft promise-and a threat. As their past rekindles in secret, one question remains: Can Cairo resist the inferno Jaz has set inside them both, or will the flames consume everything? ⸻
