Three years later, her old friend, now the Head of the Keep, came to her with a proposition: come back to the Keep to get rid of Damien River, and Cassandra's name would be erased from Plintz's death. Of course, she had to take the offer. People still associated her with the Plintz Real Estate Empire, even if years had passed. Getting rid of one villain wouldn't be that hard; she had killed many of them during her time as a Hero. But none of those criminals had sculpted muscles, dark hair that was just begging for her to tangle her fingers in it, or a laugh that was so full of life that it made her heart melt. Would Cassandra strike him, or surrender to the electrifying attraction between them? ❋ ❋ Trigger warnings are mentioned in the 𝐼𝓃𝓉𝓇𝑜𝒹𝓊𝒸𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃.

"That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will."

"I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..."
