That was why, when the hot-as-hell blonde started trailing my brothers and me, I had to act. Maybe Ophelia Kline was working with the enemy—playing me with lies from that damn mouth. Or maybe she was innocent—caught in the spread of toxic rot. Either way, she was mine. And when push came to glock-in-the-face, I wouldn’t let her go. Because all good relationships start with a BOOM and a little kidnapping… right? This is a Happily Ever Alpha novella featuring crossover from the Hyde Series and Aurora Rose Reynolds' Until Series.
