But as the contract clock ticks, Layla uncovers Damien’s hidden vulnerability and the dangerous past he’s desperate to protect. Every stolen glance and fragile moment between them deepens the intrigue, but the real threat isn’t just their ticking contract—it’s a ruthless antagonist hell-bent on exposing secrets that could destroy them both. Caught between deceit, desire, and desperation, Layla must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice: her heart, her family, or her very life.
