Sold to the Mountain King

My father sold me to settle a gambling debt. I didn't know until the man I'd been serving coffee to for two months pulled out my chair at a brunch table in Vail — with an engagement clause that had my name on it. Signed eight weeks ago. Without my knowledge. Without my consent. My father couldn't look at me. Cole Ashford couldn't stop looking. Cole is the CEO of Palisade and the leader of the 303 — an organization that controls more of Colorado than anyone is supposed to know about. He bought my father's debt in one night, told him the clause was worthless before the ink dried, and let him sign it anyway. He knows my lease. My roasters. My routines. He broke into my apartment while I was in Vail and left a cup of coffee brewed exactly the way I brew it — still warm when I walked through the door. I hated him. I hated more the way my body wouldn't agree. His voice landed behind my ribs and spread where it had no business spreading. His gaze dropped to my mouth and I felt it on my skin for hours. The most dangerous man in Denver looked at me like I was the only thing his empire couldn't buy. I built Treeline from three years of tips and a lease in Union Station. Now I'm discovering the ground beneath everything I built belongs to a man who doesn't take what he wants — he builds a world where what he wants walks in on its own. Every touch he takes gives him nothing. Granite and ice. Every touch I choose to give him changes everything. He thinks he claimed me. He's wrong. The only version of me worth having walks in on her own. And I haven't decided yet. ⸻ Slow burn · Enemies to lovers · He falls first · She decides last · Arranged marriage · Possessive hero · Strong female lead · Mafia · CEO

The CEOs Vengeful Possession: A Contract Signed In Ruin

Synopsis “Take off your dress, Meadow.” “Why?” “Because your sister and your ex are watching,” he said calmly. “And I want them to understand exactly what they lost.” ••••••••••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married in Vegas to the man she believed was the love of her life. Instead, she walked into a hotel room and found her twin sister tangled in bed with her fiancé, smiling, unapologetic, and cruel. One drink at the bar turned into too many. One shattered night turned into a reckless decision. And one powerful stranger’s attention turned into a contract she signed with trembling hands, and a diamond ring she never expected. Alaric Ashford is the devil wrapped in a tailored black suit. Billionaire CEO. Cold, controlled, and feared. A man born into power, blood, and steel. He also suffers from a rare neurological condition, he cannot feel. Not pain. Not pleasure. Not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and everything changes. Now she belongs to him. On paper. In public. And behind closed doors. She wants him to break her. To take what no one else ever could. He wants control, obedience… and revenge. But what begins as a transaction slowly twists into something neither of them planned. Obsession. Buried secrets. And a past soaked in pain that threatens to destroy everything they’ve built. Alaric Ashford does not share what belongs to him. Not his empire. Not his wife. And never his vengeance.
