"She moaned my name like a prayer . . . then broke in my arms." Yvette Moriah Galvez has spent her entire life giving more than she ever kept for herself. Her family's needs always came first, no matter the cost. Out of sheer desperation, she accepted work as an escort - another sacrifice to keep everyone afloat. Known for satisfying every client's expectations, she's mastered the art of giving. But true pleasure? She's never felt it, not even once. Not until Archer Griffin Torrealba. Assigned to train her at the Kinky Agency, he uncovers the truth she's been forced to hide - she was raised to obey, never to feel. But the moment a soft, involuntary moan slips past her lips, the facade collapses . . . and the past she's been running from comes crashing in. Now Archer is determined to teach her how to reclaim the life she lost - starting with her own desire. Will she learn to scream his name . . . or break before she ever gets the chance?

Kio Soledad de Merced always kept his life quiet and private. He never wanted anything flashy and grand. Attention and spotlight were the two things he never wanted to have. Calm and easy, that's how he preferred his life. Shiloh Lumiere Bendia's life was far from what he wanted, she was born for the spotlight. Living under the scrutinizing eyes of the world, Lumiere's life consists of cameras and flashes following her whenever she moves. The world gravitates around her, and everyone who sees her is drawn to her light, including him. The moment he saw her on that stage with the spotlight shining on her, he knew he would spend his whole life admiring her from afar. But with the twist of fate and a little luck, his fate might have changed. A secret moment. A lingering stare. Quick stolen moments behind the camera that no one knows about. But to what extent can they sacrifice for a losing battle they knew they would never win? To love is to risk. To risk requires courage and courage is only found in places we're too scared to take. ---- Date Started: March 2025 Date Finished: June 15, 2025
