Caviar & Crimes: Pursuit, Protect, & Preserve

Cassie Norman:

I meet an FBI agent at Fifth House Brew and knew I want to ruin his man bun and his self-control. But I fought off those feelings, but I'm not dating. I don't have time.

I'm lead counsel for Norman Scientific Corp. I negotiate hostile takeovers before breakfast. My life is measured in depositions and contracts, not danger and deception.

When FBI Agent William Kross proposes the night before going undercover into The Claxton Kings MC. And suddenly I'm not just a corporate lawyer anymore.

I'm the woman caught between two worlds: the boardroom where I dismantle corporations, and an MC clubhouse where power is measured in blood. Between protecting my family's legacy and protecting the man I love. Between staying silent about secrets that could end his life or speaking up and watching him walk into hell anyway.

So I stop choosing. I follow him in. Stand beside him as old lady to a VP in a world that should terrify me. Learn that sometimes the only way to win is to play by their rules while never forgetting mine.

Because William might be undercover, but I'm the one who taught myself to survive in rooms full of men who underestimate me. And this time? They're about to learn what happens when a Norman woman decides you're the problem.

William Kross:

I meet Cassie Norman at Fifth House Brew and know she's the kind of dangerous I can't afford. Smart enough to see through every lie I've ever told. Beautiful enough to make me forget why I built a career on compartmentalization and control.

I propose because I can't live without her. The night before I become Ryder Kross again. The heir apparent to The Claxton Kings MC. Born and raised. "Live Free. Live Bold."

I'm FBI. Trained to infiltrate, to deceive, to destroy criminal organizations from the inside. The Claxton Kings was supposed to be simple: get back in, gather evidence, take them down. Except now the president is my brother. Chase Kross. The man I'm being sent to betray.

Now I'm three men fighting for control. William Kross, the federal agent whose career depends on completing this mission. Ryder Kross, the VP who earned his patch through blood and loyalty tests I can't unsee. Billy, the man who put a ring on her finger and promised to come home.

The lines blur. The violence feels easier. The criminal world starts making a sick kind of sense. And I'm terrified that the deepest cover isn't the identity I'm playing. It's the one I'm becoming.

So I make a choice that breaks every rule: I bring her in. Into TCK. Into the world where my brother still wants her and I'm the only thing standing between them.

Because the mission says destroy Chase. My oath says serve justice. But my heart says protect Cassie. And when all three demand the same thing? I'll become the monster they're afraid I already am.

Some kings are born, some are made, but love chooses its own throne.
