Secure Their Fates

A Sapphic Why Choose Dark Bodyguard Romance Trilogy

BOOK TWO

Five women. A mountain safehouse. A crime family that never stops hunting.

We evaded the Bellantes once. Now we were buried deep in the mountains, waiting for the next move. I was surrounded by four women who would do anything to keep me safe.

Kara. Ellie. Cam. Alex. My bodyguards. My protectors.

Inside, it looked almost like a normal life. Games. Routine. Watch rotations that never stopped.

I almost believed in it. But the rules were absolute. Someone was always watching.

Obsession. Possession. Control.

The world we left behind hadn’t stopped moving. The investigation was building. The Bellantes were still out there. Every day we stayed, the pressure tightened.

Surveillance. Seduction. Surrender.

This was never going to end quietly. And if the Scorpions finally caught up to us…

it wouldn’t be on our terms.

Secure Their Fates is a sapphic why-choose dark bodyguard romance with morally grey protectors, forced proximity, high heat (without cheating), hurt/comfort, found-family vibes, and a journalist who chooses them all again. HFN ending with no romantic cliffhanger—Sabine and her bodyguards will find their HEA in book three.
