"You’ll work for me, Anna. You’ll live with me. And you’ll warm my bed every night. That’s the deal." Five years ago, Anna Rodriguez walked out on Dominic Moretti, leaving behind the man she loved—and the dangerous world he ruled. She had a secret to protect, a life to save. But now, fate has brought her back into his shadow. Desperate to pay her daughter Lily’s mounting medical bills, Anna takes a job as a waitress at a high-end nightclub. She thought she could handle anything… until Dominic strides back into her life, darker, harder, and more dangerous than ever. When a confrontation turns into an ultimatum, Dominic seizes the opportunity to reclaim Anna. He offers her a deal she can’t refuse: Money. Money that can pay for Lily’s treatments, but Anna must become his mistress, body and soul. “You think you can control me?” she snaps. Dominic’s lips curve into a predatory smile. “No, Anna. I already do.” Thrown into Dominic’s seductive, perilous world, Anna fights to keep her heart—and her secrets—safe. But Dominic isn’t a man to be deceived. When he discovers Lily’s existence, the stakes skyrocket, and so does his possessive obsession. As old passions reignite and deadly rivals circle closer, Anna and Dominic are thrust into a battle for love, family, and survival. Dominic will stop at nothing to protect what’s his. But can Anna surrender her heart to the man who’s claimed her life?

Ruthless Desires Chapter 3 - A Reckoning
(POV Dominic)The moment Anna Rodriguez walked into Club Lux, the night changed.I felt it in my chest before I even saw her—this shift in the air, like the room itself held its breath. It was impossible to mistake her. Even after five years, she still moved with that same grace, the same fire simmering beneath the surface, though she tried to bury it under a polished smile and tired eyes.I hadn’t expected to see her tonight—or ever again, for that matter. I didn’t believe in fate, but if I did, it would look like this: Anna stumbling back into my orbit as though the last five years hadn’t existed. As though she hadn’t walked out of my life without so much as a goodbye.I leaned back in my seat, my fingers drumming lazily against the leather booth. I let my gaze follow her, cold and deliberate. She looked different. Her long black hair was pulled into a sleek ponytail, though a few stray strands framed her face. She was thinner than I remembered, her cheekbones sharper, her shoulders

(POV Anna)The tray in my hands trembled, but I tightened my grip, forcing it to steady. Dominic Moretti. Of all the people in the world, of all the places in the city, he was sitting in the VIP booth of Club Lux.I could feel his eyes on me, sharp and assessing, like he could peel away the years and the secrets I had buried between us. My heart pounded so hard it hurt, but I forced myself to push through the haze of shock. I had a job to do.“Keep moving,” I muttered under my breath, biting the inside of my cheek to anchor myself. The strobe lights flickered over the club, their relentless rhythm casting Dominic’s silhouette into sharp relief. I didn’t look at him again. I couldn’t.Instead, I pasted on my professional smile and did what I always did: worked.I made my way to another table, dodging swaying bodies and ignoring the drunken shouts of patrons who thought yelling my name was the best way to summon me. At table three, a group of women in glittering dresses waved me over, t

(POV Anna)The bass pounded through my body, a relentless, pulsing beat that made it impossible to think. Club Lux wasn’t just loud; it was deafening. Every thrum of music vibrated through my bones, the sound rattling in my head like it was trying to shake loose my sanity. The strobe lights—blue, gold, and sharp enough to cut—flashed across the glossy black floors, and the whole place reeked of wealth and indulgence. Polished leather booths, a mile-long bar glowing like liquid silver, and patrons draped in designer everything. This wasn’t my world, not even close.But for the right paycheck, I was willing to survive in it.“Table four, Anna! Move your ass!”I bit the inside of my cheek and adjusted the tray of drinks balanced on my arm. Callie’s shrill voice grated like nails on a chalkboard, but I kept my face neutral. No use arguing. I had bigger problems than her. Lily’s medical bills weren’t going to pay themselves.“On it,” I muttered, more to myself than to her.Weaving through
