Bento (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235569348)

It's unprofessional to want him, but I can't help myself...

Bento

Niran Chun is the quietest man I've ever known. He rarely says anything, and he's strictly business.

When Rico brought me in off the streets and gave me a job as a member on his security team, Niran was the one to train me.

I thought my crush on Niran would go away over time. I thought I'd grow up, mature, and be able to forget about him.

But my feelings have only grown.

Revealing anything for Niran goes against my own code. I owe Rico my life, and getting involved with his personal guard / the head of his security is too much of a risk.

Besides, Niran feels nothing for me. He's a soldier. That's it.

At least, that's what I believe until the day my entire world flips upside down.

Niran

Rico made me the head of his security and his personal bodyguard for a reason. I'm cold, calculating, and I can flip my emotions off like there's a mere switch in my brain.

Until him. Bento Perez is the one thing I can't turn off, no matter how much I want to.

I'm good at keeping what I feel for him hidden. I'm excellent at keeping my mask in place and treating him as an employee and coworker.

Until he risks his life to save Rico's husband. Until he's taken from me.

I'll rip this world to pieces to find him again. And when I do...

I hope everyone who touches him knows what's coming for them.

Because I'll burn everything to the ground to save him.
