A man of sharp lines, colder than the marble of his penthouse, yet with eyes that seemed to see far more than they should. He offered her a way out....but at a price she never imagined. A marriage. Not of love. Not of choice. And though every instinct screamed to run, a strange, dangerous pull kept her there; in the orbit of a man who could destroy her....or save her. In his world, nothing was simple. And in hers, nothing would ever be the same again.

Will this lifetime be the one where love finally wins?

Ella has spent her entire life surviving the cruel hand of her father - a man feared in high society, but monstrous behind closed doors. When he forces her into a marriage with Erik Valenko, the ruthless and calculating leader of the most feared mafia in Europe, it feels like another sentence, not salvation. Erik is cold, violent, and entirely untouchable - a man with blood on his hands and ice in his veins. The marriage is a business deal sealed in blood, not love. He doesn't want a wife. He wants obedience. Silence. Control. But Ella is not the broken girl her father thinks she is. She may be quiet, but she's watching. Learning. Waiting. At first, Erik barely acknowledges her, treating her like a pawn in his empire. He has no patience for softness, no space in his world for weakness. But Ella's fire - quiet, unshakable, and unyielding - starts to crack something in him. He sees her flinch at raised voices. He sees the shadows in her eyes. And slowly, without realizing it, Erik begins to protect the girl he once intended to discard. When Erik discovers the full extent of her father's abuse, something inside him snaps. No one touches what's his. He becomes her shield, her weapon, her storm. But Ella doesn't want a savior - she wants justice. And she's willing to walk through fire to get it. As the marriage shifts from a cage to a battlefield, passion begins to twist into something neither of them expected. Love, fragile and violent, starts to grow in the ashes of their pasts. But love built on blood is always on the edge of burning everything down. Will Ella find power in the very world built to destroy her? Will Erik allow himself to feel - or will his darkness consume them both? And when the time comes for revenge, will Ella choose freedom... or fire? // A.N. ! English is not my first language !
