I rescued her from the fatal fire and I should have told someone, but I chose to keep her for myself instead.

MAX
I don’t hesitate.
I don’t question orders.
And I don’t leave loose ends behind.
That’s how Station 9 survives.
But the night everything burns, something goes wrong.
She’s still inside.
Evangeline Clark.
She wasn’t part of the plan.
She wasn’t supposed to matter.
And the second I pull her out of the flames… everything changes.
I should walk away.
Instead, I choose to keep her.
Hidden.
Close.
Under my control.
Because the more I watch her…
the more I want her.
And I’ve never been good at letting go of something I want.

EVANGELINE
I remember the fire that killed my husband.
The heat.
The smoke.
The moment everything I knew disappeared.
And then… her.
The woman who dragged me out of the flames
and into something I don’t understand.
Max Hale doesn’t ask.
She takes.
Space. Control. Attention.
Every time she looks at me, I feel it—
that pull I shouldn’t trust,
that tension I can’t ignore.
I should be afraid of her.
Maybe I am.
But when she steps closer…
when her voice drops…
when her touch lingers just a little too long—
fear isn’t the thing I feel the most.
And that might be the most dangerous part of all.
