Jasper Hayes was not planning to land himself in prison this week. But then again, he wasn't planning on being hunted by a literal mafia, either. When the mafia hunting his found family, his everything (GraveTech) is under attack. And all signs point to one man: Alexander Locke. Tech genius. Mafia prince. And oh yeah, the psychotic bastard who once kidnapped Jasper for fun. Alexander is locked up in a high-security cell... or so the world thinks. Jasper volunteers for a reckless mission: get arrested and uncover the truth. But what he finds behind bars isn't a prisoner. It's a king on a throne with guards in his pocket, secrets in his smile, and a terrifying obsession with him that never went away. To stop him, Jasper gets too close. To survive him, Jasper might get closer than he ever meant to. But when the Moretti family breaks Alexander out and takes Jasper with them he's thrust into the opulent, violent heart of their empire. To protect the friends he left behind, he must now aid the very family destroying everything he loves. Forced into a twisted alliance, Jasper faces an impossible choice: betray the man who values his chaos like a king values his crown, or embrace his new role and lose himself completely.

It was supposed to be the perfect proposal. Cole Rivers had the ring, the rooftop reservation, and The Weeknd songs queued for post dessert vibes. Three years of love, laughter, and late night ramen with Natalia-all leading to this one moment. But instead of "yes," he got: "Cole, meet my fiancé... Dominic." Not just any Dominic. Dominic Crane. GraveTech CEO. Power-suited perfection. Cole's boss. And apparently... Natalia's upgrade. Cue spiral. Champagne-fueled heartbreak. A blackout night with 18-year-old scotch. One very illegal attempt to hack Dominic's company out of spite. But fate and a brutal corporate shake-up-have other plans. Now Cole is stuck working side-by-side with the man who shattered his relationship... and maybe something else he's not ready to name. Because Dominic? He's infuriating. Arrogant. Cold. Also: stupidly attractive. Unfairly competent. And magnetic in a way that short-circuits every defense Cole thought he had. What starts as sabotage turns into banter. Banter turns into tension. And heat turns into late nights, stolen glances, and lines that don't stay drawn for long. But can Cole really fall for the man who broke him? And if he does... who's the real traitor, Dominic or his own heart? Love was never part of the code. But some bugs don't want to be fixed. --- Top Rankings 🏆 1 - #Secretrelationship (10/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Sci-fi Fantasy (16/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Action-Thriller (23/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Tech (24/10/25) 🏆 1 - #boyxboy (02/11/25) 🏆 1 - #Original (09/11/25)
