"I don't care if you're a spoiled heir or a pawn in his twisted game—tonight, I will decide my fate!" AMIRIAM roars as her world collides with danger, desire, and scandal. In a sprawling mansion where wealth hides dark secrets, the fierce and determined AMIRIAM, a devoted nanny to sweet little JAMES, finds herself entangled in a torrid affair with the enigmatic LUKE ODEN. Torn between loyalty and lust, LUKE battles the oppressive expectations of his domineering father, JACKSON ODEN, whose ironclad control over his inheritance fuels a legacy of broken hearts. In searing, shock-filled exchanges—like LUKE's biting retort, "You want to see me stripped bare, not just physically but for who I truly am?"—the story exposes a raw vulnerability beneath the veneer of high-society indulgence. Family ties further complicate the passion: the ever-watchful AMA, the supportive yet embattled CHRISTIANA and RITA, and even FRANK and OSSIAN PETE, whose past romances and betrayals echo through every heated encounter. Meanwhile, the seductive STACY enters the fray, her allure both a promise and a threat, challenging every boundary in this forbidden game of love and money. Hot, sweet, and unapologetically scandalous, Reckless Desires: The Oden Legacy is a searing tale of passion, power, and betrayal—a world where every whispered secret and incendiary dialogue has the potential to shatter lives and redefine destiny.

RECKLESS DESIRES: THE ODEN LEGACY Chapter Nineteen
LukeSharing a bed had been a mistake. He hadn't known it was that big of a deal until after they'd visited the Colosseum. He had no clue what had changed between them, and he had no clue if it was all in his head. Either way, he'd thought that it would be best if he slept on the couch. That was before he'd witnessed the look in her eyes when he'd proposed the idea.The girl got upset. He didn't see why it was that important where he offered to sleep, Hell, he was attempting to be a gentleman, but it mattered to her. He could see as clearly as day. He couldn't also see why he cared if she was hurting or not. It had never affected him before to see a girl get emotional, but since that moment in the church, he'd found himself caring about Amiriam despite wanting or not wanting to.But he had to draw the line somewhere because she was currently cuddled up against his chest with her bare thigh draped over his waist. He'd been lying on his back for the past hour, staring at the ceiling and

AmiriamThe hot water from the shower would have to be enough to reinvigorate her weary bones and prolong her fight against the jet lag a few more hours. Luke and Amiriam took turns, naturally separately, before venturing out to see some sights."So, where are we going?" she asked, gazing at the charming alleys that were filled with lush, green vines and colorful flower pots. Italy was even more lovely than the photos on the internet had indicated."We have a tour of the Colosseum in thirty minutes," Luke said, glancing at his wristwatch."Ooh! I've always wanted to see the Colosseum!" Amiriam exclaimed. "Have you seen Gladiator?"“With Russell Crowe?” He gave her a look that said she was dense for even asking. “Of course, I’ve seen it. It’s a classic.”“Right? Can you imagine if we had gladiators today?”Rolling his eyes, Luke said, “You’d probably love to have a bunch of Russell Crowes walking around so you could cheer them on.”Throwing her head back in laughter, Amiriam razzed, “H

AmiriamThe journey to Detroit from Manchester was uneventful, and before she knew it, Amiriam was en route to Rome. Thanks to Luke, having booked the flights, she wasn't surprised to find herself in first class, squirming her backside over the comfortable seat."How're you doing over there?" Luke asked with a grin."Doing good, my friend. Doing very well. No wonder you love flying overseas. With so much space for the legs, the eight-hour trip will be easy," Amiriam said, stretching out her legs for good measure, which made Luke laugh."Happy to oblige," Luke replied.Plugging in his headphones into his ears, he started going through some of the films being offered on the flight, and Amiriam did the same. Her spine settled into the seat as the plane departed a few minutes later, and she smiled as the rush of energy ran through her. She had yet to sleep since the wedding the night before. They'd both decided to get out of New Hampshire as quickly as possible, and the adrenaline of thei

LukeWhat the devil was that?He rubbed his hair and glanced over at Amiriam beside him. Her cheeks had turned pink as her fingers stroked the ring on her left hand, examining it closely."Is everything all right?" he asked.Glancing over at him, she smiled shyly and stopped fidgeting. "I see you snuck into my room and took the Tiffany box.""I actually made James do it. Bribed him with some Twizzlers. Do you like it?"Her gaze fell to her left hand before she lifted it for closer examination. It was a huge, square-cut diamond flanked by smaller ones. Any girl would swoon over a stone that big, but she didn't fawn like he'd expect a typical girl to. She just said instead, "It's beautiful, but you shouldn't have. I was happy with the ring we talked your parents into thinking belonged to my grandma."He knew that she was. But he wasn't comfortable with it. He'd witnessed how this arrangement had affected her. And if he was honest with himself, it had affected him, too. Teasing Amiriam b

Amiriam"Smile!" the photographer shouted before snapping another billion pictures. There were sparkling chandeliers hanging from the tall ceiling, and she was reminded of Beauty and the Beast when Belle was getting ready in the yellow dress, and they danced the night away. She pretended another forced smile and looked up at Luke.Yeah, she was making the moment a little creepy with how similar it was. Kind of a jerk being a prince. There has to be something in the punch."Mr. Oden, lean in and give her another kiss. The lighting is perfect for it!" the photographer ordered.Stomach tightening, she stood with his arms around her waist and lifted her chin to meet his green eyes. Not that she particularly wanted him to kiss her. She was just curious to see how he would respond. She'd told him that a photographer was extravagant, but his father had said they should have a memento of the sacred day.Luke's eyes scanned her face for a brief moment before he hardly nodded and released her.

Amiriam The next few weeks flew by. Luke went all out in ways Amiriam could have never imagined. Ordering a three-tier cake, creating a small but lovely area, and even taking James to the tailor to be fitted for a custom tux. She wondered over-the-top emotions might scare a guy into doing just about anything. Meanwhile, she sat on pins and needles waiting until the day finally came. She was doing this. She was really doing this. Her hands shook as she fastened the white, lacy wedding gown together and looked in the mirror at herself. Her mother and sisters were buzzing around the bride's room like bees, preparing to walk her down the aisle. She was getting married. She couldn't believe she was actually getting married. "Sweetie, are you alright? You look a bit pale," said her mother anxiously. She touched the back of her hand to Amiriam's forehead and let out her breath. "No fever. Good. Are you sure you're alright?" "I'm fine," she gasped. "Just anxious. That's all." Since h

AmiriamWhat devil's work am I doing here? Amiriam thought for what felt like the thousandth time since she'd poked her nose into places it shouldn't be. And it wasn't helping that she'd been crammed in a car with her archenemy slash fiancé most of the day. Biting her bottom lip, she looked sideways at him as they arrived at the fifth place in as many days.She threw Luke the side-eye once again. How the heck did he manage to do that and get them to appear sexy? It was frustrating her. With an indignant sniff in her head, she leaned back out of the passenger side window, adopting her favorite six-year-old mimicry. If James could play like there was no tension between them in the car, then so could she. Or maybe she was only imagining it. That was always an option too. She was on her period. And when she was on her period, she was as cranky as hell for completely no reason. Except the fact that—she was guessing it—she was on her period.You know what else was frustrating and awesome si

LukeLuke's ring rested on his dresser in the corner of his bedroom, taunting him as it waited for him to pick it up. He glared at it and then flopped onto his mattress with his phone held tightly in his hand. The guilt of lying gnawed at his stomach, but he suppressed it. He had one thing he wanted to accomplish, and he needed to focus on it. Get his inheritance. Get out from under his dad’s thumb. And live his life. He didn’t care who he had to climb over or use to get it. Even if she was an enigma.His eyes found the damn Tiffany box again.Groaning, he reached for his phone and dialed Stacy’s number.It rang once before a breathy voice answered, “I was wondering when you’d call.”“We need to talk.”“Obviously.”I'm going to have to take that ring off. You can keep it for your time, but when you departed, you forfeited the right to address me as your fiancé. The deal's off."A quick gasp echoed through the speaker. "Excuse me?Pinching the bridge of his nose, he grumbled, "I don't

AmiriamAmiriam and her sisters spent the rest of the evening munching on salty tortilla chips, spicy salsa, and cheesy enchiladas. The food was great in spite of the grouchy hostess, and Amiriam definitely planned to return.When she pulled into the driveway of the Oden home, she noticed the red BMW was not there and wanted to scream. Her heart racing, she reached for her phone to call Luke when she saw his message from earlier.Luke: I told James I upset you. He said if I bought him ice cream, then he'd take care of it. So, now we're getting ice cream. Because that's how it works exactly.Noticing when the message had been sent, and the current time, she did the math and raised an eyebrow. Three hours for ice cream?She read another message that had been sent an hour afterwards.Luke: Oh. And make sure you take a few weeks off from babysitting James for our honeymoon. We'll want to lay low for a bit after the wedding so we might as well do it in a foreign country. You do have a pass

AmiriamAs Amiriam pulled up to James's residence, she scowled and studied the unfamiliar car ahead. It was a gaudy, red BMW, but she couldn't put a model name to it for the life of her. Her favorite six-year-old squirmed in the back seat, reminding her. Looking in the rearview mirror, she mashed her SUV into park and focused on matters more urgent. Like preventing urine from dripping onto her leather seats."Do you need to go pee?" she asked James. She was his nanny for a couple of years, and it truly was the greatest job in the world. He had a sticky mop of dark, curly hair on his head, and two dimples that made him able to get away with murder. Most of the time, at least.With a quick motion of his head, James unfastened his seat belt and scooted over toward the back passenger door as if his pants were afire.That's what you get for not going while we were still at my sister's house, Amiriam had to think about saying, but she kept quiet. It made no difference how many times she ins...
