Some betrayals cut deep. Others pull you into a world you never saw coming.
Kai Fitzgerald returned home earlier than planned, his vacation cut short by the sting of a heartbreak girlfriend, faithless in the arms of another. But what awaited him wasn't the solace of home.
It was him.
Theodore Kingsley-his brother's enigmatic business partner in Kai's own bedroom, entangled between a man and a woman like sin-made flesh. From that moment, Kai knew: that Theo was trouble-wrapped in tailored suits and quiet smirks.
No matter how hard Kai tried to keep his distance, fate refused to comply. Their paths twisted, tangled unbreakable thread pulling them closer, again and again. But what Kai doesn't know?
Theodore Kingsley isn't just an arrogant, insufferable temptation. He's a man built on secrets. Some that belong to the past. Some that belong to Kai Fitzgerald himself.
