Bad Boy Xavier: Part 1

“We’ve all got a vice. Mine’s alcohol and punching things. What’s yours?” She asked, refusing to feel bad for her choice in extracurriculars when he had just shot someone in the head because of his. He chuckled dryly.

“Sex mostly.”

Katelynn grows up in a world of bruises, broken promises, and a father whose debts pull her deeper into danger. When a deal gone wrong hands her over to a powerful family, she braces herself for a life of fear. But Xavier, the heir who rules with fire and steel, doesn’t expect a girl who bites back instead of breaking. He’s been trained to pull the trigger without thinking, to take what he wants without asking—but with her, nothing is simple. The girl he should see as a pawn suddenly feels like a battle he doesn’t want to win. And being his captive? It’s supposed to be her worst nightmare. Yet somehow, against every rule and every scar, it feels like something far more dangerous—something she’s not sure she wants to escape.
