Leon Marcer-my professor, my future father-in-law, a man twice my age. He was cold, untouchable, and completely off-limits. Yet, from the moment I met him, I wanted him. Needed him. But desire turns to obsession, and before I know it, I'm tangled in a web of secrets and danger, and a man who refuses to let me go. Because Leon doesn't just take- He owns. ~○~~●~ LEON MARCER : She was never meant to be mine. Young. Forbidden. My student. My son's fiancée. I should have ignored her. Pretended she didn't exist. But from the moment I laid eyes on Iereen, I was a doomed man. She was too innocent for my world, too soft for my hands-yet every time she ran, she ran straight to me. She thinks I'm her escape. She doesn't know I'm the cage. ___________________________________________ 🔞🌶⚠️Highly mature content |18+ Contains mature themes: age-gap, forbidden romance, morally grey relationships, and explicit scenes 🔞(18+).
