Marvel We Didn T Start The Fire

In the steel jungle of New York, a deadly game of desire, power, and redemption quietly unfolds. At 27, Allison Jones is a glamorous female elite climbing the ranks on Wall Street, burdened by her mother's massive medical bills. She is forced into the power vortex of the multinational conglomerate "Obsidian Capital," believing herself the prey—only to find this game will rewrite her destiny entirely. Kyler Black, the 32-year-old "Emperor of Obsidian," is a domineering CEO who controls the global economic lifeline. Rumored to be ruthless and sex-addicted, he is actually trapped in an emotional cage by childhood trauma. When Allison's data analysis report lands in his hands, he senses her hidden ambition and vulnerability—just as she detects the cracks beneath his mask. From the first touch of fingertips in their showdown to the undercurrents of confrontation on his private yacht, their relationship dances wildly along the tightrope of power and desire. "Want to save your mother? Learn to pay with your body first." Kyler's provocation shatters the pretense, plunging Allison into a scorching game. She is forced to wear a mask of "submission," secretly collecting his business secrets in every lingering night; he thinks he has tamed her into a plaything, only to have his defenses quietly dismantled with each touch of skin. Sex becomes their weapon— bondage and liberation, conquest and backlash. In luxurious offices, hidden private islands, and rain-drenched New York streets, forbidden passion intensifies, igniting the secrets they both bury deep. As the plot of business rival Victor surfaces, Allison uncovers the shocking truth behind Kyler's mother's death—a tragedy that holds the key to breaking his ironclad emotional barriers. When she unravels his decade-long in a storm, when she first hears his trembling confession amid scorching intimacy, the scales of power finally tip. From dominated prey to queen of the chessboard, Allison uses her wisdom and fiery soul to transform this deadly game into a true counterattack.
