15 parts Complete Mature
Blandina "Dina" Rose was raised in a world where control masked as protection. Born to a wealthy but cold political dynasty, her life has always been dictated-what to wear, who to smile for, what secrets to bury. But at twenty-seven, she's done playing the perfect daughter. On the run from an arranged engagement that's more power-play than romance, Dina vanishes into the underground world of exclusive erotic clubs where identities are masked, desires are raw, and no rules exist. There, she becomes "Rose," a mysterious, submissive siren who surrenders her body but guards her heart. When she's claimed by a dark, dominant stranger who calls himself Cain, her boundaries begin to blur-because Cain isn't just any man. He's the one person forbidden to her: her father's former protégé turned political rival, a man whose ambitions could destroy her family... and whose mouth writes confessions across her skin. Their chemistry is immediate, brutal, and consuming-built on secrecy, dominance, and mutual obsession. Dina finds herself spiraling into a dangerous addiction, torn between craving his control and fearing how much of herself she's willing to give. But in Cain's world, everything has a price... and soon, love, lust, and betrayal become weapons. As their erotic game deepens into something neither can control, Dina must decide if she's escaping her past-or becoming something darker, hungrier, and far more powerful than she ever imagined.
