Hunted? No. Danya and Alena have already been claimed. When Alena secretly follows Danya into the woods, she suspects something wicked. She never expected the Beast of legends, a reclusive, witch-cursed man, to steal her sister away into his hidden mansion, though.

When Jessika Fevrier gets a well-paying temp job cleaning one man's office, she's elated. Little does she know, it's the office of young, eccentric, and reclusive billionaire Asher Landseer. When he returns early from a meeting and catches her shirking her responsibilities by browsing through his personal bookcase, she panics.

What does he mean when he says she deserves punishment, and why is he pulling her into his private conference room?

She was only supposed to clean Asher's office, but before she leaves for the day he has another job he'd like to offer her.
