It’s a real fake marriage.
How the hell did I ever think I’d be able to keep my hands off her—especially when we’re sleeping in the same bed?
And yeah, it’s my fault.
I was the one who set the rules for the marriage contract. I wanted this fake marriage to look real—just to make the woman I once loved jealous.
But now, I’m the one paying the price.
Every night is torture.
The way she trembled when I kissed...

But now, I’m the one paying the price.
Every night is torture.
The way she trembled when I kissed her on our wedding day—I knew it was her first.
Still, I can’t stop teasing her.
I love the way her face turns crimson when I flirt.
And damn…She was supposed to be untouched. Off-limits. But sleeping beside her every night? I’m one kiss away from losing control.

It was supposed to be a simple contract. One bed. No feelings. No touching. Too bad he never plays by his own rules.
I didn’t count on Alexander Reed. Cold. Ruthless. Powerful.
He made the rules, which meant all the power was in his hands. He could ask me to do anything—and I couldn’t even ask a question.
Giving up my first kiss? That was part of the deal.
But it was biggest mistake—because now he uses it to tease me anytime he wants. And clearly, he’s enjoying every second of it.
Why the hell did I agree to this in the first place?
We have to make it look real, which means sharing a bed. We were doing fine… until we weren’t.
I’m not attracted to men like Reed. Selfish. Cruel. Icy.
But there’s something different about Alexander Reed.
Am I really willing to risk my heart, my v-card, and the money my family desperately needs… just to find out?
