Then she walked in, and I started losing it–fast.

She's not just beautiful. She's captivating for reasons I can't comprehend.

I break my own rules to get closer. I can't stop touching her. Can't stop wanting her. And when my old ally puts a hit out on her, I lose every bit of that control I'm known for.

Bringing her home with me should've been the end of it.
Instead, it's just the beginning.

The more I fall for her, the more I see the cracks in my kingdom–and the lies she's wrapped herself in.

Nothing is more important than my business and my family. I can't trust her. I can only trust leverage. She's been using mine all along.

I should end her and walk away.
But I can't and won’t let her go that easily.

Now, the business is bleeding from the inside. My people are dying. And the woman I let inside my walls? She might be the knife at my throat.

She wants a seat at the table. She wants my empire to bend.

But I didn’t become King to just let anyone—especially her—take it from me.

So tell me, Diamond.
