Ps: A sequel from With Violence & Lurve - do read it if you would like but this can be a standalone sequel too!
Macau Theerapanyakun has always lived in the shadow of his family's legacy-his father's brutality, his brother Vegas' defiance, and the empire they built on blood and secrets. But when an old enemy resurfaces, seeking revenge against the Theerapanyakun name, Macau becomes the next target. To ensure his safety, Kinn assigns one of his most trusted bodyguards-Ken-to protect him.
Ken is disciplined, loyal, and knows better than to get involved with the people he's meant to guard. But Macau is different-reckless yet sharp, unpredictable yet strangely vulnerable. At first, Macau resents the constant presence of a bodyguard, testing Ken's patience at every turn. But as danger closes in, their forced proximity blurs the lines between duty and desire.
As their feelings deepen, so do the threats lurking in the dark. In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal is fatal, will they defy the odds and choose love? Or will the weight of their divided worlds crush them before they have the chance?
