The world is his. Money? More than he could ever spend. Power? Nations bow when he speaks. Women? They throw themselves at him, hoping for a taste of his empire. But none of it matters. Not when the one thing he wants the most is the only thing he can't have. She's off-limits. Untouchable. And yet, she's the only thing that makes his pulse race.
Damian Cross built his empire from nothing. A billionaire before thirty. Ruthless, brilliant, unstoppable. His name alone can send stocks soaring or bring markets crashing down. Men fear him. Women adore him. Competitors crumble at his feet. But for all his wealth, all his influence, there's a hunger inside him. A fire that won't burn out. Because she exists.
It started with a glance. A moment. A split second where she walked into a room, and everything else disappeared. He's known desire. Conquered it. Controlled it. But her? She unraveled him with a single look. And now, it's all-consuming. A need so fierce, so raw, it's become an obsession.
Her name? Olivia Hart. The one woman in the world he can't have. The woman engaged to his best friend. A man who's been loyal to him since day one. A man he trusts. A man who has no idea Damian is losing his mind every second Olivia is near.
She's not like the others. Doesn't chase money, doesn't crave power. She's got a fire in her, a stubbornness that makes her impossible to ignore. While others bend to his will, Olivia pushes back. She doesn't fall for charm, doesn't melt under his stare. She's a challenge. The first real challenge of his life. And God help him, he's never wanted anything more.
But he won't cross that line. He can't. He tells himself that over and over, like a prayer, like a warning. Yet every time he sees her, he imagines what it would be like if things were different. If fate hadn't played its cruel hand. If she were his. If she could ever look at him the way she looks at the man who doesn't even realize how lucky he is.
It's torture. The kind no amount of money can fix. Because money can buy anything—except the heart of the one woman who refuses to be bought.
So he waits. Watches. Buries himself in work, in deals, in distractions. But nothing kills the ache. Nothing silences the thoughts. The what-ifs. The maddening, relentless pull toward the one thing he can't touch. He's a man used to taking what he wants, but this? This is different. This is war. And the battlefield is his own mind.
Maybe he should walk away. Cut ties. Put distance between them before he does something reckless, something irreversible. But every time he thinks about it, imagines never seeing her again, it feels like suffocating. Like the walls closing in. Like losing something he never even had to begin with.
She doesn't know. Can't know. If she did, if she ever saw the truth in his eyes, it would ruin everything. Destroy friendships, burn bridges, leave nothing but ashes. So he plays the game. Acts like nothing is wrong. Like he isn't being eaten alive from the inside out.
But the truth? It's there. In every stolen glance. In every moment that stretches too long. In every heartbeat that pounds like a warning, like a promise, like a curse.
He has everything. Everything except her. And that makes him the poorest man alive.
