DARK EMPIRE The Ghost of Wall Street Series, Book One She broke into his office at midnight to destroy him. He was already there. Waiting. Mara Voss is a investigative journalist with a dead father, a buried story, and four months of evidence pointing to one man: Silas Vane; Manhattan's coldest billionaire, the Ghost of Wall Street, a man who hasn't given a press interview in eight years because he has never once needed to explain himself to anyone. Until her. He doesn't call the police when he finds her at his desk. He does something worse. He makes her stay. Now Mara is fifty floors above the city that never sleeps, trapped inside an empire built on secrets she doesn't yet understand, signing agreements she can't walk back and trying to ignore the fact that Silas Vane has been watching her specifically deliberately, for four years before she ever walked through his door. The story she came for will shake Wall Street. The truth underneath it will shake her. And the man at the center of all of it cold, controlled, devastating in a way that has nothing to do with his money is looking at her like she is the only variable he never fully calculated. She should be afraid. She is. That's not the problem. Dark Empire is an enemies-to-lovers dark romance set in the gleaming, ruthless world of Manhattan power where the most dangerous thing in the room is never the secret. It's the man keeping it.

"Please Abhi ji... " she begged, her voice shaky, eyes searching his face for a flicker of mercy. She stepped back until the wall stopped her escape, her chest rising and falling rapidly. She could see it in his eyes-he was angry. But his voice? Too calm. Too controlled. And that scared her more than his rage ever could. He took another step forward, calm as ever, as if he wasn't burning inside. "Jaana, dar kyun rahi ho? Main kuch nahi karunga. Mat daro," he said smoothly, but the coldness in his gaze betrayed the lie behind his soft tone. (Darling, why are you scared? I won't do anything. Don't be afraid.) Her voice broke, laced with panic. "Aapne vada kiya tha... ki aap mujh par zabardasti nahi karenge," she reminded him, holding on to the last thread of hope. (You promised... that you wouldn't force yourself on me,) He smiled slightly, a calm too dangerous to trust."Aur Jaana, aapne bhi toh vada kiya tha ki aap apne boyfriend se kabhi nahi milengi. Aapne apna vada tod diya... ab meri baari " (And darling, you also promised that you would never meet your boyfriend. You broke your promise... now it's my turn.) His hands gripped her wrists and pressed them gently against the wall, not hurting her, but not letting her go either. Then, with a deliberate slowness, he leaned in and kissed her earlobe-sending a shiver down her spine. She squeezed her eyes shut, her heart pounding. She knew this wasn't about love. It was about control.
