They've known each other since they were kids, inseparable, untouchable... or so she thought. He's grown into someone darker, more dangerous than she ever imagined. What started as friendship has twisted into desire, control, and obsession. She wants to run, but every time she tries, he's there watching, claiming, relentless. How can she survive a love that burns hotter than it should, a man who won't let her go? Some ties can't be broken, some desires can't be denied, and some obsessions are meant to own you.

When cold-hearted, dominant and controlling, Darius Kane sets his sights on something he wants he doesn't stop until he gets it. *first draft*
