Ava crossed her arms. “You’re scared I’ll ruin you,” Liam smirked. “No, I’m scared you’ll keep me hooked.” Ava Davis works hard to survive in a cutthroat corporate world. Her arrogant billionaire boss, Liam Carter, makes life impossible with his demands. But when Ava stumbles upon a secret that could destroy him, she uses it to fight back. Liam won’t go down without a fight. He makes Ava an offer: help him clean up his image, and he’ll make sure her career doesn’t crash. Now they’re stuck together, working side by side. Every moment is a battlefield, every glance charged. Liam hides a dark past, and Ava is determined to uncover it. But the closer they get, the harder it is to ignore the growing tension between them. When a scandal shatters everything, Ava and Liam must choose: keep fighting or let the walls between them crumble. In a world of power, secrets, and second chances, can two enemies find redemption and love? Enemies at work. Bound by secrets. Can love be the endgame?

Ava’s POVThe burns of whiskey barely dulled the ache in my chest. I sat at the bar, swirling the amber liquid in my glass, my mind replaying the scene over and over again. Daniel, Lila, their tangled limbs, their moans. My stomach twisted.The bar was dimly lit, packed with people trying to waste their sad memories. I think. Well, just like. I downed another shot, letting the warmth settle in my veins.“You okay, sweetheart? A voice slurred beside me. I turned to see a man, his breath reeking of alcohol, his eyes dark with intention.“I’m fine,” I muttered, waving him off.He didn’t move. Instead, he grinned and reached for my wrist. “C’mon now, don’t be like that. Let me buy you another drink.”I yanked my arm back, my eyes burning in rage. Don’t people get the fucking word? I’m fine!“She said she’s fine,” A familiar, sharp voice cut through the noise. I turned and found Liam standing feet away, his gaze the same as always, unreadable. Just great!I had seen him earlier but tried i

Ava's POV I left. I didn't know why but my feet obeyed his command instantly, even before my mom would process.Walking down the hall, my heart was beating more than I could imagine and I could still feel like his lips were on mine.

He kissed me, and it wasn't even a real kiss, but I could feel beads of sweat on my forehead.I forced a steady breath as I stepped into the elevator. The doors slid shut, stealing me away from that and whatever the hell had just happened.What was that? Was that a mistake? A drunken slip? Or did he…… I didn't want to think about it. "Liam Carter couldn't possibly start to fall for me!"First, I was out of his hundreds of elite ladies who would be a perfect match for him. My reflection in the metal doors showed the slight flush on my cheeks, my parted lips, and my wide, startling eyes. We kissed, and it was nothing somehow; I hated how he had just also walked back to his office

Ava's POV It Was back at the office, but the words the person had said to me kept on lingering in my head.Just immediately, my email chimed in with a new message.Subject: Dinner. Tonight From: Liam Carter I stared at the message again and again. Dinner?I shouldn't go.I should ignore it.But at the end, my fingers typed the word. Okay*Evening came too fast.I spent too long deciding what to wear. It wasn't a date Ava! It wasn't anything. Probably just dinner. Probably for work. Probably because Liam has something again to warn me about.Still, I found myself wearing a black dress that clung a little too well, heels that added enough height, and makeup that made my eyes sharper and my lips darker.I told myself, it was just to look professional. I told myself it had nothing to do with the way Liam Carter made me feel.Lies.I arrived at the restaurant just as the sun dipped below the city skyline. It was the kind of place with dim lighting and hushed voices, where important me
