In a city bult on power, secrets, and shadows, the safest place to hide
might be under the protection of the man giving the orders.
Cheryl
I was never just the senator's daughter.
I was leverage.
Now I'm a package on the run—moved from one dark safehouse to another.
Then there's Gabriel.
The private security expert who wasn't supposed to be protecting me... but refuses to let anything happen to me now.
Controlled.
Commanding.
Impossible to ignore.
He gives the orders.
He sets the rules.
And if I want to survive, I follow them.
But the closer danger gets, the harder it is to pretend this is just protection.
Because the man determined to keep me alive might already own my heart.
Gabriel
I've never lost an asst.
I'm not starting with Cheryl.
She's too innocent for the hunt closing in around us—and far too tempting for my peace of mind.
We keep moving.
Stay hidden.
Stay one step ahead of the powerful enemies trying to drag her back.
I gave her three rules:
Stay close.
Stay quiet.
Stay under my protection.
But someone is feeding our location to the enemy.
There's a leak in the system—and the circle is tightening.
When it closes, Cheryl will discover just how far I'm willing to go to keep her safe.
Because I don't just protect what's mine.
I claim it.
She was supposed to be an assignment.
Now she's Under His Claim.
