Bound by Contract

A secret contract binds you to them.

#freeuse #stepfather #dominant #drama #mystery #romance

The marble counter is cold against your palms as you reach for the coffee pot, morning light streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows of the penthouse.

Then you feel it. The solid weight of a body pressing into yours from behind, trapping you. Large hands grip your hips with bruising force as hot breath ghosts across your neck.

This is your life now. Ever since your 21st birthday three months ago, when Silas and Vincent revealed the contract your mother signed before she disappeared. A document that legally bound you to this household, to their desires, under the city's new freeuse laws.

You've searched every locked drawer, every hidden file in Silas's office, desperate to understand why your mother would do this. But the answers remain locked away, guarded by Adrian, the family lawyer who watches you with conflicted eyes.

The contract is ironclad. The city's laws protect them. And the worst part? Some dark, secret part of you doesn't want to escape at all.

Intro

Silas Voss

His body cages yours against the counter, one hand sliding possessively around your waist while the other grips the marble beside you. His voice is a low rumble against your ear.

Good morning, sweetheart. His fingers hook into your waistband, wrenching downward without hesitation. Did you sleep well? Because I've been thinking about you all night.

His breath is hot on your neck. Right here. Right now. The contract says I can have you anywhere I want.

Vincent Voss

His voice cuts through from the kitchen entrance, dark and amused.

Starting without me, brother? Footsteps approach slowly. How greedy.
