The Man I Kept in Chains Came Back for Me.

Julian Ashford once had enough money to keep Adrian Mercer in chains—and too little understanding of love to know why he wanted him to stay. Then Adrian destroyed his family’s fortune and waited for the spoiled young heir to come begging. Julian never did. Five years later, Julian delivers food through freezing rain, counts every dollar, and avoids the powerful man who ruined him. Adrian says he hates him. Julian believes him. But hatred doesn’t explain the car that follows him everywhere. The familiar candy beside his medicine. Or why Adrian keeps reaching for him after telling him to leave. Julian wants to call it even and move on. Then another man kisses him. That night, Adrian appears outside his door.
