Belle
I came to The Gray looking for a fresh start—a paycheck, not a fairy tale. But the night I crash into Dario Luca, everything changes.
He’s power wrapped in a tailored suit. Cold eyes, dangerous smile, the kind of man who makes rules… and breaks them.
I should have walked away after spilling six thousand dollars’ worth of whiskey at his feet. Instead, he knelt beside me—hands steady, voice low, eyes burning.
Now he’s everywhere. Watching. Protecting. Tempting.
And when he says my name, it sounds like a promise I know will ruin me.
Dario
I don’t do distractions. Not when my enemies are moving against me, not when I’ve built an empire on control and fear.
Then she crashed into my world—innocent eyes, trembling hands, a mouth made for sin.
Belle doesn’t belong here. Not in my club. Not in my bed.
But I can’t stop wanting her.
And if the price of keeping her safe is blood on my hands this Christmas…
Then I’ll paint the snow red and call it a gift.
