CROWN MEKHARI
Seventy-two hours.
That's all I planned to give her.
Nirvana Crockett was never supposed to matter. She was leverage, nothing more than a complication that wandered into my world at the wrong time. In my life, mistakes get erased, and people learn quickly who holds the power.
But Nirvana doesn't scare the way she should.
She looks at me like she's daring me to cross the line, like she doesn't understand that men like me don't bluff and don't release what they claim. Every hour she resists only tightens the hold I never meant to form.
I tell myself this is control.
I tell myself this is temporary.
I lie.
By the time the clock starts running out, the line between punishment and possession is already gone, and the unhinged part of me is no longer pretending.
NIRVANA CROCKETT
Crown Mekhari is everything I was warned about. Cold. Powerful. Dangerous in a way that doesn't need to announce itself. An alpha male whose silence carries more threat than most men's rage. Being trapped with him was supposed to break me.
It didn't.
It woke something up instead.
Fear turns into awareness. Awareness turns into heat. And somewhere between his rules and my defiance, I realize the most terrifying truth of all. I don't just want to survive these seventy-two hours.
I want him.
But wanting a man like Crown in this African American romance comes with a cost, and when the clock hits zero, I'll have to decide if freedom is worth more than the menace who refuses to let me walk away.
Because Crown Mekhari doesn't release what he claims.
And I'm not sure I want him to.
