She never wanted attention. He never tolerated defiance.
Alina Reed walked into St. Augustine University with only one goal-stay invisible and finish her degree. But her silence drew the wrong kind of notice. Rafael Veyron, the man everyone feared-professors, students, even rival gangs-had decided she was his new obsession.

But secrets run deep at St. Augustine. Behind every glance, every touch, lies a dangerous game of power, desire, and ruin. And Alina will soon learn that in Rafael's world, love isn't soft-it's a cage.
