[WARNING: SMUT, LANGUAGE] Theodore Pierce has a dream, and that dream has a six-pack, steel-gray eyes, and a permanent scowl. Unfortunately, the man of his (very explicit) dreams is also Xavier Fairchild: billionaire CEO, legendary Alpha ice king, and Theo’s boss of three excruciatingly polite years. Theo’s plan was simple: pine quietly, survive on late-night fantasies, and keep his hopeless crush safely locked away while enjoying no-strings fun with Rowan, his ridiculously hot rock-star Alpha friends with benefits.

Like seriously? Well, challenge accepted. Between leaked paparazzi photos, emergency heats in glass elevators, and a company gala that ends with a fake mating mark becoming very, very real, Theo is determined to thaw the ice king—one scandalous moan at a time. Because if Xavier Fairchild thinks he can knot him senseless and then go back to spreadsheets and silence… Well, he clearly underestimated how stubborn a sunshine omega (pretending to be a Beta) in love can be.

A Casanova who collects hearts like trophies… and never keeps one for long. Then there’s Sara, the quiet nerd who loved him in silence.

She opens her door to a letter that makes no sense: “Your memories are the legal property of Elyon Drayce Industries.” She has never met Elyon Drayce. She has never signed anything. She doesn’t even remember losing a single moment of her life. But someone has taken one year from her mind, and the billionaire who claims to own it looks at her with a familiarity that shouldn’t exist. Expecting a legal fight, she storms into Elyon’s skyscraper. Instead of lawyers, she finds him—brilliant, controlled, and feared by almost everyone. Yet the moment he sees her, the composure shatters. His voice softens. His eyes follow her like he has been waiting for her to walk back into his world. And she can’t decide what scares her more: that he might be lying, or that he might be telling the truth. Elyon insists she came to him willingly. He swears the missing year was the most important part of her life. He warns that someone is hunting her, and he is the only one who can keep her safe. But he refuses to explain what she meant to him before the memories disappeared. Then the threats begin. Strangers follow her home. Her apartment is ransacked. Someone tries to force their way into her mind. And through it all, Elyon steps in—too fast, too intense, too protective, as if losing her once nearly destroyed him. The mystery deepens when a terrified boy clings to her and calls her “Mom” with absolute certainty. Enemies whisper her name like she’s the key to something they want. Elyon looks at her with a heartbreak he can’t hide. She doesn’t know if she should trust him. She only knows her heart reacts to him before her mind can catch up. Every moment she spends with him feels like falling back into a story she lived once, loved once, and lost. To survive, she must face the truth hidden in the year she cannot remember—and decide whether to walk away from Elyon Drayce, or step into a dangerous past she doesn’t recognize but her heart refuses to forget. Her memories may belong to him on paper. But her heart is a different battle. And in Elyon Drayce’s world, love is the most dangerous thing she can recover.
