"The Stripper And Her Stalker". "You are the devil" she says with so much hatred while my lips tug into a crooked smile. "Then get on your knees and pray". Sienna thought she was dealing with a standard criminal. She didn't realize she was dealing with a man who views human emotion as a design flaw. Cassius doesn't court women; he itemizes them. As a devastatingly smooth sociopath ruling the city's upper echelon, he treats executions and hostile takeovers with the exact same clinical boredom. When his focus shifts to the fiery, sarcastic princess of the Sterling line, he doesn't knock on her door. He invades her sanctuary, sitting silently in the armchair in the corner of her bedroom while she sleeps, turning her privacy into his personal laboratory. Their collision is a public explosion. At a high-end birthday gala, Sienna bypasses the security grid, locks her fingers into his hair, and forces a blade to his throat in front of every major crime family in the city. Her terms are lethal. Her words are pure, defiant venom. But a sociopath doesn't get caught unless the capture serves a purpose.By pulling her knife into his skin, Cassius triggers a high-stakes trap that compromises her family's entire territory, pulling her straight into his high-security penthouse. He calls her his little menace. She vows to watch him bleed. They are locked in a claustrophobic, intense war of wills where her spitfire rebellion matches his chilling, calculated obsession stroke for stroke.

"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
