“I can feel your heartbeat,” Damien murmured.
“You could have chosen to defy me. Yet, here you are.”
His fingers traced higher, a teasing and agonizing path.
Chloe shivered. Her breath hitched as his hand pressed forward past the barrier of silk.
A soft gasp escaped her lips when his fingers found the space between her legs.
“So tell me, what do you want?” he whispered against her skin, his strokes slow and teasing, breaking her breaths.
Chloe looked down, watching the way his hands moved—possessive, steady, each motion more intoxicating than the last.
“I want you,” she said. “I want you.”


Damien Cross only had one mission—revenge.
Cold, calculating, and merciless, he’s spent years building an empire and waiting for the perfect moment to strike back at the man who betrayed him.
Chloe Bennett was never supposed to be part of the plan. But when she walked into his life, she became the perfect pawn… and the one temptation he can’t resist.
Now the game has changed.
She was meant to be leverage.
But now she’s becoming his obsession.

Fated To Be His Obsession

Damien entered the room some minutes later, holding flowers and a box of chocolates.

His face was etched with concern. He had been trying to comfort her since the incident, but she had been distant and withdrawn.

"How are you doing?" he asked as he sat down. "I brought your favourite chocolate; I had to drive around nine stores just to find it." He chuckled lightly.

She glanced at him, trying to force a smile.

"Chloe, I know the past days have been hard and I can't imagine what you went through with Ryan. I am so sorry I didn't get there sooner," Damien said, his voice filled with regret. "I should have been there for you. I should have protected you."
