Payback Position [ Slow edit ]

-Payback Position-

In a world where power defines worth and bloodlines decide fate, the Hollywood Pack reigns supreme-a dynasty of purebred Alphas, untouchable in strength, wealth, and influence. Among them, Mendes Martin Hollywood, the third son, is an enigma: cold, calculating, and dangerously intelligent. Born into dominance but raised on emotional starvation, Mendes doesn't crave affection-he craves retribution.

A decade ago, he created a fake identity-Mark Gill Cassel-an unremarkable, quiet boy who attracted the wrong kind of attention. Specifically, from Eric Redscar, a violent, arrogant Alpha heir with a fractured soul and an uncontrollable obsession. Eric didn't know how to love, so he hurt. And Mendes let him-because everything was part of a long, exquisite plan.

Then, Mark "died." Mendes vanished.

Now, ten years later, Mendes returns under a new name and a sharper smile. Eric is older, richer, and still haunted by the boy he destroyed. But the tables have turned. Mendes no longer needs to pretend-he's here to finish the game.

What begins as a psychological chess match quickly devolves into a twisted collision of lust, rage, and unfinished scars. As Mendes tightens the noose around Eric's world-eroding his dominance, his mind, his sense of control-Eric spirals into a darkness Mendes knows all too well.

But revenge is a double-edged blade.
And love, no matter how cruel, leaves its mark.

Payback Position is a slow-burn, timeline-shifting novel exploring the blurred lines between vengeance and desire. With themes of dominance, identity, and trauma, it is a brutal yet intimate portrait of two Alphas locked in a battle of wills-and flesh-that can only end in destruction... or something dangerously close to salvation.
