You were never supposed to matter... so why do you? Cold, controlled, and heir to a dangerous legacy, Alessio Moretti built walls to keep you out. He ignored you, dismissed you, and told himself you were nothing. But now he watches from doorways, intervenes without being asked, and lingers in the kitchen when you're near. The distance between you is shrinking, and the thing he fears most is the one thing he can't control: the way he looks at you.
