Cherries in New York

Alex never expected to be caught up in the world of the elite, but when her voice catches the attention of Leonardo, the cold, ruthless CEO of Hotel Reccini, sparks fly. He's used to control especially in the bedroom but Alex isn't like the others. She's a challenge. A temptation he can't resist.

The tension between them is palpable, thick with hate and desire. One night, after her performance, he drags her into the shadows. Their lips crash together with brutal force. There's no sweetness, no tenderness just anger and raw, desperate need.

"You think you can challenge me?" he growls, pinning her against the wall.

Alex smirks, her voice dripping with defiance. "I don't think it. I know it."

The fight between them escalates, their bodies crashing together with ferocity. It's savage, desperate, a battle for dominance. But as they finally collapse in the aftermath, the silence is heavy, laced with the tension neither can escape.

This is just the beginning of a war neither of them can afford to lose.
