mabooz

Lucas Reed is a sharp, ambitious man working his way up in a high-stakes corporate world under the shadow of his powerful boss, Adrian Vasquez—a man who controls empires and crushes those who dare to betray him. Lucas has kept his head down, played by the rules, and earned Vasquez’s trust.

But then Elena Vasquez steps into his life.

Seductive. Unpredictable. Dangerous.

One late night, she shows up at his door, wrapped in silk and smelling of jasmine, whispering things that shouldn’t be said. Lucas knows this is a game, but who is playing who? Is she truly unsatisfied in her marriage, looking for an escape? Or is she testing him—a pawn in her own rebellion?

As their encounters grow bolder, Lucas finds himself trapped between his growing obsession with her and the looming threat of Vasquez finding out. The deeper he falls, the more he realizes:

This isn’t just an affair. It’s a war.

A war where love, lust, and betrayal will decide who survives—and who gets burned.

My Boss’s Wife Wants More

Late that afternoon, my phone lights up with a text from Elena: I told him I won't go to Singapore. He's furious. Meet me—Hotel rooftop bar, 9 PM.

My stomach lurches. She confronted him already? That's either gutsy or reckless. Probably both. I wait until after work and make my way downtown.

The hotel's rooftop bar is nearly empty, the city skyline a glittering backdrop. Elena waits at a corner table, swirling a glass of wine. The raw tension in her face knocks the breath out of me.

"I told him I refuse to relocate," she says, skipping all greetings. "He threatened to cut off my cards, demanded an explanation."

A swirl of nausea hits me. "What did you say?"

She exhales sharply, eyes glistening with pent-up emotion. "I told him I'm tired of being treated like an accessory. He said I can stay behind if I want, but… he made it clear there'd be consequences."

It's a huge "WTF" moment. She's basically declared war on her powerful husband. "Elena, are you sure—"

She sets the glass down with a trembling hand. "No. But I know I can't go on living this lie. If he leaves, maybe… maybe I can vanish." Her eyes meet mine, uncertain but desperate. "If you want to vanish with me."
