"Do not marry. Men are obstacles. Just get a child and leave the father behind." Those were my mother's dying words, and Seraphina Vance intends to follow them to the letter. She doesn't need a husband; she has a billion-dollar empire to run. She just needs a biological donor with top-tier genes. Enter Dante Thorne: cold, ruthless, and devastatingly handsome. The perfect candidate. Seraphina plays the role of a helpless victim to get into his bed, secures the "asset," leaves a tip on the nightstand, and vanishes. She thought she’d won the perfect game. But three months later, Dante Thorne kicks down her door. He’s not just an angry one-night stand; he’s the most dangerous man in Harbor City, and he doesn't let anyone steal from him—especially not his heir. When he drags her back to his mansion, he expects a submissive mistress. Instead, he brought home the woman who secretly bought his mortgage. "Get out," Seraphina smiles, holding the deed to his house. "I only wanted the baby. You were just the necessary equipment."
