He ended a life to save mine. Now the walls are closing in.
They hunt us, seeking our weaknesses. I may have to sacrifice myself to save him.
I never meant to love him.
Yet now Im enthralled, ensnared by his every word, his every look.
The way he moves, the way he undresses me with his eyes.
I can’t let go. Not when his touch sets me ablaze.
My job with his father’s worst enemy is an existential threat. I’m undercover in enemy territory and I can’t trust anyone.
If we can endure the gathering storm, our bond might save us.
Yet a betrayal whispers in the shadows, one that could shatter us for good.
