Luca King. The notorious playboy. A master of one-night stands. My constant shadow. The one who has power over all my daily activities now. He knows it and he loves it. I secretly love it too but cannot let him know that the has power over me already.

Wherever I went, he was always there. Until he wasn’t. One wild night at a masquerade party was all it took. I got pregnant, broke my engagement, and failed my family. The worst part. I had nowhere to go but back to him. He knew this. I had to find him and tell him to take responsibility for the one-night stand.

I had no idea who the father of my baby was. I had only one clue. A Prince Albert piercing. Not exactly a smoking gun. My parents disowned me after I refused to marry the prospects they presented. It wasn’t my fault I became gun-shy. The last four men I met ended up dead. It was safer to have this baby on my own. I had to get away from here so that my baby and I can be safe.

Our world was a dangerous one. And without the protection of my family… I was running out of time. So it left me with no choice but to disappear, leaving no trace of where I went. That was until Luca King found me at my lowest. Maybe I should have tried harder to stay hidden because he would surely be my destruction.
