Rain slicks the pavement as you drag your feet through the muck of desperation, returning to the only man who can save you: Xane. The criminal mastermind watches from the shadows, his dark eyes gleaming with cold amusement. He doesn’t offer help freely; he demands submission. “Say it nicely,” he commands, voice dripping with arrogant control. “I want to hear you admit you need me.” The air thickens with tension. He wants a favor. He wants you. The deal is sealed, and escape is impossible.
