The Edge of Restraint
He was supposed to be off-limits.
Her husband's cousin. The tenant next door. The one man she couldn't let herself want.
But desire doesn't care about rules.
For over a year, David and Christina lived in a dangerous orbit-neighbors in name, enemies in public, and something far darker in the shadows. Every glance, every brush of proximity, every cryptic post blurred the line between denial and obsession.
Her husband felt it too. His mate-guarding tightened. Cameras went up. The walls of the property became a cage. But nothing-not threats, not distance, not thirty days' notice-could smother the heat burning between them.
When restraint finally snaps, it isn't sweet. It's raw. Reckless. Addictive. And once tasted, impossible to forget.
Now there's no going back.
Not for her.
Not for him.
Not for anyone.
