Octavia has been held captive in her boyfriend's apartment for six months.

Victor is an amateur boxer - one of many reasons he is difficult to escape - whose talent for fighting is rivaled only by his delusions of their future together. 

Alex is a contract killer of underwhelming skill who was bullied into the family business. He's dispatched on the night of Victor's last fight to escort them to their new home beneath a warehouse in Chicago's south suburbs. 

Octavia pursues her freedom relentlessly despite an onslaught of obstacles that include auditioning for an unwanted job, the advances of her boss and the constant menacing presence of Victor. 

Then comes the only thing that could makes things worse: Alex falling in love with her.

"𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦." Sophia gasped as his hand tightened around her neck, his gun suddenly lowered to her heat, teasing her. The more she fought, the tighter his grip got and the more breathless she grew as he started moving the gun against her, making the knot in her stomach tighten. Storm took the safety off the gun, glaring at her with those piercing arctic eyes of his. "Scream for me, pet." Sophia screamed. ❦ Sophia Morales' life shattered when her family fell victim to a brutal murder, orchestrated by Viktor "Storm" Osipova, a notorious hitman entangled in the dark web of the Russian mafia. Storm's brutality had forever marked the girl's life. Storm took everything from her and, in turn, threw the young girl into an orphanage, only to be tossed from family to family, enduring abuse and neglect. For years, Sophia's insatiable thirst for retribution grew, twisting into something far darker and more sinister than mere revenge. Storm became the object of her obsession as her anger transcended a simple wish for revenge, particularly as she grew up parentless and deprived of affection. But vengeance alone was not what drove the young girl. Her obsession with Storm grew with each passing day she was abused by the very system his actions had inadvertently thrown her into. For several years, she had been stalking him, waiting for the perfect moment to exact her revenge and unveil the enigmatic layers of the man who had torn her world apart, as the line between vengeance and obsession blurred. Sophia was determined to avenge her family-even if it meant taking a life in their name.
