She needed the job. She did not need him.

Zara Cole has spent her whole life hiding what she is. A rare elemental with the power to bend energy, light, and fire to her will. In a world where magic is real but ruthlessly controlled by those with enough money to weaponize it, being discovered means being owned. So she keeps her head down, her abilities buried, and her ambitions quietly enormous.

Then she is hired as a senior analyst at Voss Enterprises, the most powerful corporation in the city. Its CEO, Dorian Voss, built his empire on a secret darker than anything Zara has ever run from. Ruthless, magnetic, and dangerously perceptive, he sees through her carefully constructed walls the moment she walks through his door.

He wants her abilities. She wants his resources. What neither of them plans for is wanting each other.

But something ancient and malevolent is moving through the city's elite, consuming powerful beings from the inside out and leaving nothing behind. The trail leads directly to the boardroom of Voss Enterprises and to a villain so deeply embedded in Dorian's world that exposing them could destroy everything he has built.

Zara did not survive this long by trusting powerful men.

Dorian did not build an empire by letting anyone close enough to burn it down.

They are each other's greatest risk.

They might be each other's only way out.

“But we’re both men ...." , The words tumbled out of me but stopped immediately when I felt the professor's hand on my throbbing boner.
“Do you think that matters to me right now?",

Her.
Dragged into his world of money, danger, and secrets, Kendrix won’t go quiet. She fights him. She wants out. She doesn’t trust him for a second.
But the longer she stays, the weirder it gets. People around him already know her name.
Roberto acts like he’s been waiting for her long before the debt happened.
She wasn’t picked by accident.
And the closer she gets, the more it looks like her life was tied to Roberto way before that night.
Hatred’s there. But it's getting messy, and she doesn't know what she feels anymore.

Adelaide should have died on Selection Night.

Instead, the Devil carried her across the veil—bleeding, furious, and burning with magic she shouldn’t possess.

They're bonded, like it or not.

Her power destabilises his realm.

Their desire threatens to consume them both.

As Hell twists and reshapes itself around her presence, one truth becomes impossible to ignore:

Adelaide isn’t just his chosen.

She’s the spark that could remake the underworld… or rule it.

If she survives him long enough to claim the crown.

Excerpt

Adelaide hung suspended in the Devil’s ropes—breathless, trembling, every inch of her alive with flame.

He circled her like a predator savouring the final moment before the kill.

But he wasn’t hunting her.

He was devouring the sight.

“Look at you,” Apollo murmured, touching a glowing fingertip to the curve of her hip. Her body jolted, heat spiralling through her so sharply her vision blurred. “My Little Flame… you burn so beautifully.”

The ropes tightened at his silent command, lifting her chest, arching her spine. Her breath broke. Magic crackled between them, alive and ravenous.

He dragged a slow trail of fire up her ribs. She shuddered.

“Tell me you feel it,” he whispered against her ear.

She hated how fast the answer came. “Yes.”

His grip closed around her throat—not harsh, but claiming—and her pulse leapt into his palm as if reaching for him.

“You deny me with your mouth,” he said, “but your body kneels.”

Heat built—pressure, light, something too big for her ribs.

“Apollo—please—”

“Yes,” he whispered, voice breaking. “Give in.”

She did.

Her flame erupted in a blinding burst, racing along the ropes, lighting the chamber in gold.

Apollo inhaled sharply, awe and hunger twisting his features.

“Good girl,” he breathed, ruined by the sight. “Burn for me.”

"No. Everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie. Say one truth. I dare you to tell me one fucking truth."

"I love you."

"No, you don't. Say something else."

"I can't live without you."

"Shut up, you bastard! How can you say you love me when all you ever do is hurt me?"

Once a predator locks onto its prey, there's no letting go.

Their attraction is undeniable, but so is the quiet war between them—desire twisted with mistrust, fear tangled with fascination. Because Noah isn’t just the man who could save her. He’s also the man who could ruin her—and make her love him for it.

“You're afraid of me, Elodie… but not enough to stay away.”

"No, I still want to run. I'm afraid of you."

"Good. Fear means you know exactly what I can do to you."
