During her stepfather's extravagant birthday gala, she walks into the estate’s kitchen only to find her boyfriend buried deep inside her best friend. Devastated and hyperventilating on the cold marble floor, she is scooped up by the one man who has always protected her—Alaric, her fiercely intimidating, billionaire stepfather. Carried to the sanctuary of her bedroom, Noelle buries her face in his broad chest. But the innocent comfort quickly turns dangerous when she feels a scorching, undeniable thickness pressing against her thigh. Before she can pull away, Alaric’s dark, hungry gaze locks onto her parted lips, sparking a forbidden heat that threatens to consume them both. The taboo tension skyrockets when Noelle uncovers her own mother’s sickening infidelity. Choosing loyalty to the man who truly cares for her, she exposes the bitter truth. Now, a vengeful Alaric has dragged her cheating mother back to the estate, locking her away in the master suite as punishment. But as her mother weeps for her husband's forgotten touch behind closed doors, Alaric's obsessive, burning attention has already shifted to the one girl he was never supposed to crave.RomanceOffice RomanceForbidden LoveBillionaireCEOVirginAge GapCheatingR18+HeartbreakBetrayal257 ChaptersOngoingMay You LikeRuined in the Deep: My Best Friend's Billionaire FatherHIS RUINED BRIDE: THE DEVIL'S REVENGE CONTRACTCrashed & Claimed: The Billionaire's Secret RacerTHE SINNER IN ROOM THREEThe Tycoon's Vow of RuinReckless Collision: The Billionaire Groom's Stolen NightShattering His RulesThe Fallen Heir's PriceDiscarded Devotion: The Billionaire's Late AwakeningThe Daddy CEO's Dirty Little SecretRead now
