Ashes of You

"Some betrayals can be forgiven. This one cannot."

Lukas Carter was a ghost. Buried. Forgotten. Erased.

Until now.

Serena Hawthorne built her life on a lie—one that kept her safe, powerful, untouchable. But the past has sharp edges, and when it returns, it doesn't knock. It tears through the walls, leaving no escape.

Because Lukas is back.

He doesn't want apologies. He doesn't want suffering. He wants control.

And he will take it.

What begins as a calculated game of vengeance soon turns into something far more dangerous. Hate tastes like desire. Obsession feels like fate. Every touch, every whispered command, every cruel smirk pulls her deeper into the trap—until she can't tell if she's lost in him or if she wants to be.

But Lukas isn't here for pleasure.

He's here to destroy her.

And when he's finished, there will be nothing left. No mercy. No escape. Nothing but ashes.
