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

Night falls. We eat canned soup warmed on a battered hotplate, trying to ignore the griminess. A tense quiet envelops us. Elena's eyes keep darting to the curtained windows. Every passing headlight outside makes my pulse spike.

Around midnight, we hear voices. Footsteps crunch on gravel. We freeze, lights off. My heart thunders. Peering through a gap in the curtain, I see two silhouettes approaching the diner.

One tries the diner's locked door, cursing softly. The other wanders toward the camper. I swallow hard, panic rising. Elena grips my arm, eyes pleading. We can't be discovered.

A flashlight beam sweeps across the camper's door. We hold our breath. The handle rattles, but it's locked. After a moment of muttered frustration, they retreat. We remain motionless until the rumble of an engine fades away.

Releasing a shaky exhale, I realize we're both trembling. "Vasquez's men?" I whisper. Elena shakes her head, uncertain. Could be drifters or curiosity seekers. Either way, our sanctuary isn't safe. We can't risk staying much longer.
