Cruel Verdicts. A Steamy BWWM Interracial Multicultural Standalone Contemporary Dark Academia Thriller Romance (en Inglés) - N. Viktoria

YARA.

I came to Edinburgh with nothing but a scholarship and a chip on my shoulder. Hargrove didn't want me - I could feel it in every stare, every room that went quiet when I walked in. But I didn't come to be wanted. I came to be undeniable.

Then they gave me a case file. A twenty-year-old fraud conviction. Routine assignment. Career-making opportunity.

The defendant was my father.

And the man who made sure he went down - who buried the truth in a basement and built a career on top of it? A High Court judge. A Hargrove legend.

Wolfe.

I should have stayed away from his son. Built my case. Taken them all down without ever letting Caspian Wolfe close enough to touch me. But he sat with me in the archives at midnight and brought me tea without asking how I take it - and got it right. He looked at me like I was the first real thing he'd ever seen.

And God help me, I kissed him back.

Now I'm in too deep. In his secrets. In a war against his family with his hands still on my skin. I came here for justice. I didn't come here to fall in love with the enemy.

But I did. And I'm going to burn his world down anyway.

CASPIAN.

I've been my father's weapon my whole life. The son who sat at Reckoning Dinners since I was sixteen and shook the hands of men I knew were guilty and smiled and said nothing. I told myself it was survival.

Then Yara Osei walked into a courtroom and took me apart with nothing but the law and a voice that made eighty people stop breathing.

I should have let her win and forgotten her name and gone back to the life my father built for me.

Instead, I watched the recording seven times. I memorised her voice. I started leaving files where she could find them. I read a transcript that proved my father destroyed an innocent man, and the only thing I could think about was the way she'd looked at me - like she could see straight through every wall I'd ever built.

She's going to tear the Wolfe name off the walls of Hargrove and drag two hundred years of corruption into the light.

My father built an empire on lies. I'm going to hand her the match.
