And on the day of her wedding, he claimed her. Now trapped in the arms of the man she was taught to fear, Raya finds herself caught between hatred and hunger, rage and ruin. Because her captor is no ordinary monster. He is patient. Possessive. Brutal. A man who touches like sin and destroys like war. He wants her defiance. He wants her surrender.
