When Ayla Moore buries her husband, she thinks she's already survived the worst. Five years in the shadows of the Berisha name has taught her a lot - how to move quietly through life, that the price of vengeance is blood, how to love a man she once hated. Her marriage to Roman was complicated, but she'd found her own quiet happiness with him, and now he was gone. With her grief still raw, Ayla has one last hope: a chance to leave it all behind. The mansion, the money, the shadows that cling to the Berisha name like a dark cloud. Roman's death allows her to take her son and walk into the world as if none of it ever happened. But the House of Berisha doesn't release its heirs so easily. When she's unceremoniously informed about the truth of her son's birthright, Ayla discovers that her freedom was never really hers to claim and faces an impossible choice - she either agrees to marry her brother-in-law and remains bound to a world built on blood and loyalty, or she loses the one thing she has left worth fighting for.

⚠️ MATURE⚠️ This story contains strong use of language and mature scenes. If you are offended easily do not read. •.• I snuggled into the comfortable warmth of the fluffy pillow as I was eager to go back to sleep. The fan lullabied me into a hazy state. Suddenly, a heavy weight landed on my waist, pulling me from the tired daze. I leaned up in shock as my hands flung forward defensively to push whoever was on me off. With a strong force, my shoulders were shoved backwards and into the mattress. Grunts of struggle filled the room as we fought each other. The offender grabbed my wrists and held them firmly above my head with one strong hand. Sobs of terror escaped from my chest as a thumb caressed my cheek to wipe away the spilled tears. "P-please let go of me," I begged, trembling. "You are so beautiful." A man's voice spoke, his large hand leaving my face and traveling down my body to squeeze my pelvic region. "Stop." I screeched, my demand ricocheting between the four bedroom walls. The man growled darkly. "If you scream again, I will kill you." I nodded keenly in response to show that I would not challenge his threat. His hand slowly freed my mouth, testing if I would disobey him. He reached into his pocket. A knife, zip tie, and a rag were all revealed. The view made me realize that this could be my last chance to get help. If I did not call out right now, he would take me. I would not make it out alive either way. I let out a bloodcurdling scream loud enough to wake up the whole neighborhood.
