His hold on her neck loosens slightly. Gripping her hair tightly, Ace looks into her eyes, his intentions cold and calculating. "You are smart, Amella. You know the reason. You are mine, and I won't let Liam come between us like before. You. Are. Mine." He claims her lips once more, leaving her trapped in a dangerous dance of fear and desire. Can Liam, her first love and closest friend, break through the darkness and save her from Ace's malevolent control? As suspense and passion intertwine in a gripping tale of love and survival, Amella's journey unfolds in a world where danger lurks in every shadow. Editing Credits: @aeralee086 Cover Credits: @lantea-
