Or did they unleash a storm that no one can control? Dive into a tangled web of betrayal, vengeance, and passionate secrets as loyalty is tested, hearts are shattered, and destinies collide in this gripping new chapter of the Eros' Obsession saga. 🔞🔞 A sneak glimpse into the book 📖 She'd read about it before. Coma patients, still aware of voices and conversations but trapped, unable to speak or move. She leaned closer to the unconscious man and whispered coldly. "If you can hear me... go ahead and die. I don't care anymore. I'm done. I'm happy now. With Stanley." Inside the locked prison of Eros's mind, rage exploded like wildfire. How dare you? his mind roared. You're my woman, Chika. Mine. You bring another man into my room? You laugh with him in my space? You mock me while I'm powerless? The words in his mind spiraled into a frenzy. He heard her laughter. Stanley's voice. It cut through his chest like glass. You belong to me, his soul growled. I will kill him. I will kill you. No one will take you from me. In the unconscious depths, he began to fight. His mind clawed against the walls of his coma, pushing, thrashing, desperate to break free. His breathing grew shallow. His muscles twitched under the sheets. The pain of jealousy, like needles in his heart, gave him the strength to rise. I have to wake up. I will wake up. I will make her pay.
