Protective

In Valeburn, Atlanta’s most dangerous block, power doesn’t pass hands—it’s taken with blood. And no one understands that more than Jayce Navarro, the razor-sharp kingpin who built his empire brick by brick, silence by silence. He rules with cold precision, a name whispered like a gun being cocked—until the ghost of his past returns with vengeance on his breath. Eli Mercer is no longer the soft-eyed teen Jayce once kissed beneath the chapel steps. Fresh from the feds and wrapped in scars, Eli returns to the block with one purpose: burn down the throne that forgot him. But when fate—and the city’s shifting underworld—forces them into an uneasy alliance, old feelings smolder beneath their armor. Lust tangles with rage. Loyalty with betrayal. And love? It’s the most dangerous weapon of all. As enemies circle from the inside and the state threatens to dismantle Jayce’s entire operation, he and Eli must decide what’s worth saving—their empires, their reputations… or each other. But in Valeburn, every crown is cursed. And every favor comes with fire.

Whenever they’re more than 10 feet apart, their lungs burn, their hearts ache, and they’re left gasping for air. They fight against the bond—she thinks he’s arrogant, he thinks she’s reckless—but soon realize they *need each other* to survive. As Selene schemes to eliminate Aria, strange truths surface: Aria’s bloodline holds the mark of the true Luna. Long ago, her wolf was bound, and she was cursed to live as human to keep her hidden. The “Luna” everyone believed in is nothing more than an impostor, hiding dark secrets of her own. Now Kael and Aria must unravel the deception before the pack is torn apart. But claiming their bond will mean going against fate
