Aaliyah Mercer never planned to catch the eye of the campus's most respected professor. She was just trying to survive her sophomore year balancing track, six siblings, and a past she never asked for. Professor Malachi Rothwell wasn't supposed to notice her. Nine years older, painfully disciplined, raised on intellect and family expectations-he never crossed lines. Not with students. Not with anyone. But over the school year, something shifts. Not all at once. Slowly. Intellectually. Quietly. Until she is the only thought he can't outrun. Their attraction grows in silence in late-night library shadows, in classroom debates that feel too charged, in the soft places where she lets him see her and the hard places he never shows anyone. One semester becomes two. Winter turns to spring. Spring becomes summer. And on chapter fifteen, a line finally breaks. Now they must survive what happens when a forbidden love becomes the only truth that makes sense.

Zahara Wells never believed love could feel like punishment-until her father's debt became her price. When the Brewsters come calling to collect, she expects threats, maybe violence... not a proposal. Now bound to David Brewster III, the cold and calculated heir to Miami's most dangerous family, Zahara is forced into a world of money, blood, and silent wars. Her job? Play the perfect wife, smile for the cameras, and remember she's only there because her father owed him. But David doesn't want her obedience-he wants her loyalty. And the longer she stays, the more she realizes his touch feels less like control and more like protection. Still, in a world built on power and payback, falling for the man who owns you might be the deadliest mistake of all. Because nothing in the Brewster empire comes free. Not money. Not loyalty. Not love. Only The Contract. Coverrr by @TrenchLordTales <3
