Fragile

Ares has always been her bully—the dangerous mafia heir who commands fear wherever he treads. Rose understood the rules since childhood: obey him without question. But when he summons her to the center of the school courtyard, something shifts. His touch is gentle as he straightens her disheveled skirt, his voice a low whisper that makes her heart race. "Bow down," he commands, and she obeys, her black hair catching the sunlight as trembling fingers brush against his coat. Then his lips find her head in soft, deliberate kisses—a public declaration that silences the entire school. In that moment, Rose realizes this badboy's possessiveness isn't cruelty; it's a claim of ownership wrapped in unexpected tenderness. The innocent girl with chocolate eyes belongs to one man alone: Ares. And she's beginning to understand that being his means more than submission—it means being cherished by the most dangerous man alive.
