She saves lives. She ends them. Engfa Waraha is a ruthless mafia queen feared by the city and untouchable by law. But behind the power, blood, and secrets, she's hopelessly in love-with the one woman who wants nothing to do with her. Charlotte Austin is a brilliant doctor with a cold heart and steady hands. She heals everyone... except the woman who keeps showing up at her door-bleeding, broken, and smiling like a devil in love. Charlotte hates everything Engfa stands for-violence, control, obsession. But when bullets fly and secrets bleed out in alleys, the line between love and hate begins to blur. Because even the heart knows: You can't outrun what haunts you... or who loves you. © r_read01, 2025. All rights reserved. This work is a product of fiction.
