Apex — J.C. Diem

Working two jobs and not getting enough sleep is making Saige Sterling a very cranky bounty hunter. As if that isn't bad enough, Lord Gilden has found another way to punish her for her defiance. He's forcing her to watch him pay her colleagues their bounties. Saige knew right from the start that this arrangement wasn't going to end well. Things take a turn for the worse when someone starts pranking her. She knows who is responsible for her torment, but there's little she can do about it. Drake is aware that Saige has a temper at times. He discovers exactly how hot her rage can flare when her control finally snaps. He'll be stuck with the job of fixing the problem he created when he'd chosen his method to punish for her for walking out on him.
