The Rule We Keep: Junior & Laura's Story

By Tegan E Armstrong

What if taking a job takes more than just your time? What if it crosses the one boundary you never thought you'd cross?

Marcus "Junior" Bartkowski built his business with hustle and a family favor. And in the city that never slows down, he's always been one step ahead until the success he fought for starts to feel like something he can't escape. When the pull of home becomes impossible to ignore, he has to consider the one move he never planned - walking away.

Laura Dragan is precise, principled, and dangerously efficient. She keeps her margins neat until his messy contract lands on her desk. His needs challenge more than just her expertise, shaking up everything she knew about herself and exposing the cracks in her carefully applied veneer of confidence. What should have been a simple corporate client quickly complicates her life.

As 'T's are crossed and 'I's are dotted, her immunity to his charm slips beyond her control. In a world where every move matters and the legal solutions could cost them, one wrong move could ruin them both. Now they must decide to play it safe or risk it all for something neither of them saw coming.
