Romance

Cassidy Calista never begged for love.
    Not even from Ezekiel Salvador, the cold, enigmatic heir to the world’s largest pharmaceutical empire.
    Their marriage was built on power, not passion. Four years of shared silence and a single rule: Fall for someone else, and walk away.
    So when Cassidy caught Zeke with another woman, she didn’t wait for an explanation. She filed for divorce.
    And vanished.
    What Zeke didn’t know? She left pregnant.
    Now, after four long years, she’s back. And she’s not alone.
    By her side walks a little girl. Bright, curious, with the same defiant spark in her eyes as Cassidy once had.
    Zeke watches, frozen. His world tilts.
    Zeke had spent every year trying and failing to forget her. But the moment he sees her again, something inside him snaps. The fire he buried returns…
    And then he sees him.
    A man. Tall. Steady. Standing too close. Speaking to Cassidy in a voice only intimacy can shape. The little girl runs to him, laughing, and he catches her like he’s done it a thousand times.
    She says nothing. Offers no explanations. And suddenly, Zeke is no longer the man with all the power.
    Because now, he wants answers.
    Whose child is she?
    Has Cassidy moved on?
    Is she married to another man?
    And the most terrifying question of all, Is he already too late?
