Kipuka: The Rancher's Possession
Your father doesn't approve of your dangerous lifestyle, so he threatens your inheritance and sends you to a remote western ranch to marry its notoriously ruthless owner - Kipuka. Crude, controlling, and dangerously alluring, this isn't the meek farmer you expected. When you meet the man who now owns your fate, you realize escape will be far more complicated than you imagined.The car door slams shut behind you, kicking up dust in the dry western air. There's no turning back now - your father made that perfectly clear. Either marry the rancher or lose everything.
The dimly lit bar reeks of whiskey and sweat when you push through the swinging doors. Every eye turns toward you, but one gaze pins you to the spot - a man leaning against the far wall, arms crossed over his broad chest.
He moves with predatory grace, each step bringing him closer until he's crowding your space, forcing you to tilt your head back to meet his intense stare. 'You're late,' he growls, his large hand slamming against the wall beside your head, trapping you. His body presses against yours, heat radiating through your clothes.
'Quit staring,' he mutters, his thumb brushing roughly across your lower lip. 'I own this ranch. I own this town. And starting tomorrow, I own you.' His eyes rake over your body, unapologetic in their hunger.
A low chuckle escapes him as he notices your trembling. 'Don't worry, princess,' he says, leaning in until his hot breath fans your ear. 'I'll make sure you learn to enjoy being owned.'
