Guarding His Jewel
(2026)(The third book in the Absolute Demands: An Instalove Billionaire Romance series)
A novel by Eva Kingsley
"You are my jewel, Aria. You marry me by the end of the month, or I buy the city and name it after you."
As the head curator of the city’s grand museum, Aria Chen answers to no one. She lives for her independent, sharp professional world, protecting history with quiet grace. But when a notorious international syndicate launches a violent heist to steal a priceless diamond collection—and the master encryption keys stored inside her head—her structured life is turned to ash.
She braces for a standard tactical rescue. Instead, she gets Xavier Volkov.
Xavier is 6'5" of raw, terrifying military muscle, a scarred billionaire titan, and the hyper-vigilant owner of the world's most elite private security firm. The moment he sees Aria risking her life through the surveillance feed, his ice-cold professional facade shatters. An uncontrollable, primal need to possess and protect her takes over.
Within minutes, Xavier puts the entire museum district on an absolute military lockdown. He systematically wipes her public existence, freezes her assets, and drags her deep beneath the earth into his high-tech, ultra-luxurious subterranean bunker: The Apex Security Vault.
Aria thinks she’s in a safehouse, but she quickly realizes the truth—she is trapped in a gilded cage built specifically to isolate her from the world and keep her entirely under his control.
But when the syndicate launches a desperate counter-strike, cutting the bunker's power grid, the sudden danger amplifies a raw, primitive hunger neither of them can fight. In the crimson shadows of the pitch-black vault, boundaries crumble, and their fierce verbal sparring combusts into an explosive, high-spice passion.
Xavier has made his vow absolute. Legally, financially, and physically, he will ruin anyone who dares to threaten his family. From the locked boardrooms of media empires to the shadows of a cliffside fortress, the trap is set. Aria is officially off-grid, and the master of the vault is never letting his jewel go.
Experience a breathless contemporary romance featuring an obsessed alpha bodyguard, a brilliant independent heroine, and a forced proximity arrangement that combusts into a lifetime of dark devotion. No cheating. No angst. Just pure, addictive alpha romance with a guaranteed HEA. Read Guarding His Jewel today and surrender to the trap!
