She was never meant to choose her own life. Born to wealth, raised to obey, Marina was supposed to be her father's perfect pawn. Instead, she became theirs. Dante. Luca. Nico. Three men who watched her from the shadows for years, orchestrating her downfall until she had nowhere left to run but straight into their arms. Men who call her wife and whore in the same breath. Men who would burn the world just to keep her under their roof. She can fight, she can curse, she can try to run- but she can't undo the chains they've already wrapped around her.

She was born beneath a crown of gold... and now, she kneels before a man who wears the blood of her family, of her people. When Princess Layla Zahara's kingdom burns, she's dragged from the ashes and thrown at the feet of Malik Aza-el, the desert's ruthless conqueror, the monster whispered about in prayers and nightmares alike. He's everything she was raised to despise: merciless, untouchable, a god forged in the heat of war. But Malik doesn't want her kingdom. He wants her. A captive. A prize. A weapon to break, or a queen to burn beside him. A spoil of war. His war. And as the nights stretch long, where power tastes like sin and mercy is a myth, Layla must decide what's more dangerous: the hatred she swore to carry... or the hunger that now consumes her whenever his grey eyes find her in the dark. Because in Malik's world, even love bleeds. And the only way to survive him... is to become his equal. Or his concubine.

> She was never meant to be seen. But now he won't look away. Born from a forbidden affair and hidden behind mansion walls, Lya Ivanova lives like a ghost-an illegitimate daughter no one claims, with a dead mother and a half-sister who wants her destroyed. She has survived the silence. The scorn. The blame. But she won't survive him. Enter Volkov Alexandrovich Bogdanov - heir to the Bratva, feared strategist, and ruthless killer. When he arrives at her father's estate for a simple business deal, he doesn't even notice her. Not at first. But when her name surfaces where it shouldn't- When her existence disrupts a perfect power play- His curiosity turns to control. His glance becomes fixation. And obsession... demands a price. Now Lya is trapped in a game she never chose, between blood feuds, brutal punishments, and a man who doesn't understand love-only possession.

"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOK

He leans in, his breath ghosting over my skin, every inch of space between us collapsing. "Still pretending you have a choice?" His voice is soft, almost amused. My throat tightens, but I force the words out anyway. "I don't belong to you." A low, knowing chuckle rumbles through him. Fingers tighten around my chin, tilting my face up until I'm caught in his unyielding gaze. Cold. Calculating. "Belong?" he echoes, as if the word itself is laughable. "You exist because I allow it. You breathe because I haven't taken that from you, yet." Tears burn at the edges of my vision, but I don't dare look away. "Fight all you want," he murmurs, eyes scanning my face, his grip unshaking. "Scream, beg, break--I don't care. In the end, little one, you'll learn. Because every part of you?" His lips brush against my ear, a cruel whisper of finality.
