HIS FAVOURITE MISTAKE 🍷

💀 HIS FAVORITE MISTAKE
By NYRIK SINCLAIR
He hid his empire behind a university desk.
I walked into his class and straight into his world.
At Moreland University, Luca Moretti is a quiet enigma.
A brilliant researcher. A man who speaks in theories and looks like sin.
To everyone else, he's untouchable.
To me, he's the mentor I should've never said yes to.
But Luca's charm is a mask one hiding a legacy written in blood.
He's the heir to the Moretti Syndicate, a criminal empire disguised as an empire of intellect.
And I'm the scholar studying human control unaware that I've become his favorite experiment.
What starts as a research project becomes something far more dangerous:
A secret, a temptation, a war between desire and ruin.
Because the deeper I fall for him, the closer I come to uncovering the truth about my own family's disappearance
and the man who may have caused it.
He told me once: "You shouldn't have stepped into my world, Ava."
But it's too late now.
I'm already marked.
And he's already my favorite mistake.
