Anri lived on her own in a village away from the hustle and bustle of the city, not knowing that her peaceful life will soon come to an end when she was forced to come out of her shell.

It turns out that it was all a lie.

She is a prisoner... in a cage made by someone. To protect her. To shelter her. To keep her out of any man's sight.

As soon as Cassian Markov laid eyes on the beauty of the eighteen-year-old Anri, he made it his life's mission to have her. She's the most desirable woman he had ever seen so he did everything to hide her from public view-and that means creating a remote village for her to live in; hiring security to go undercover as villagers to protect what's his.

He practically bought her from her parents. He spent millions just to provide her everything, to give her the fairytale life she wanted.

Because he knew her. She wanted a fairytale. She wanted to meet her prince charming in a field while she was out picking daisies. And if that's what she wants, she'll get it.

It may be a manipulation to get her to fall for him but it doesn't matter. Cassian only made sure that Anri will end up in his arms one way or another. Why make the process long when he can easily afford to have her, to give her the happily ever after that her heart desired? Anri is worth any price. He will gladly trade his soul for her if it's necessary. That's how fucked up he is.

"She's mine... and if she wanted me to burn the whole world for her enjoyment, I will gladly do so. The human race should be scared of what I'm willing to do for her. Only her."

It's spicier, more intense than the 1st one! Cassandra Ramirez never believed in love at first sight-but undeniable, all-consuming chemistry? That was a different story. Taking a job as Ian Anderson's assistant was supposed to be a fresh start, but working for the ruthless, no-nonsense billionaire was more than just a challenge. He was disciplined, demanding, and built an empire on order and control. Love, to him, was a liability-marriage nothing more than a contract, a cage he refused to be locked in. But behind closed doors? He was a temptation she couldn't afford. Cass, on the other hand, was -quirky, clumsy, and reckless enough to believe in destiny. A tarot reader once told her she was meant for "something bigger and better" (and not just in the metaphorical sense). But fate had been anything but kind. A scam gone wrong, debts she couldn't pay, and threats that left her with no choice had driven her across the ocean with nothing but quick wit and sheer determination. She swore she wouldn't fall for Ian, especially after he made it clear that what was between them was purely physical. But in his world of control, will he be willing to risk losing it all for her? And in her reckless whirlwind, will she be able to control the one thing she never has-her own heart? Determined to prove she won't wait around for a man unwilling to fight for her, Cass flirts, dates, and reminds Ian that she is no one's possession. But the more she pulls away, the harder he holds on. Because in this dangerous game of power, passion, and pride-one of them will have to surrender. And neither of them knows how.

"You're a devil," she whispered, her voice raw and filled with a mix of anger and desire. Dimitrio chuckled, the sound deep and resonant, reverberating through her like a bass note in a symphony of seduction. "And aren't you this devil's heaven?," he breathed against her skin, his mouth moving to her neck, his teeth scraping lightly against her flesh. She shivered, her body responding to him. "Monster," she swore at him again, the word a whisper that held no real heat. Her voice was a tremble, a soft protest that was lost in the sea of passion that surrounded them. He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "Call me whatever you want, as long as you come screaming my name." His voice was a dark promise, the arrogance in his tone sending a fresh wave of heat through her. *************** Under moon's dark veil, Princess shivers, devil grins.

His mother collapsed outside the bedroom door, dead from a sudden heart attack. And in front of her, he sent his father to his final rest. He hated her.

"You piece of shit!" I sobbed, pulling on the chain connecting my leg to the bedpost. "You lied to me, Enzo...I trusted you!" Enzo took a few steps closer to me, causing me to back away on reflex, "Don't come any closer...or I swear I'll..." "You'll what, Fiore?" Enzo spoke, his eyes darkening with uncontrollable desire. My back hit the wall behind me, forcing me to halt in my movements, Enzo, still inching towards me. "I asked you a question, I expect a response." I looked around the room, scanning my environment before returning my gaze to his. "I'll kill myself..." I spoke, my words were empty and held no value. I could only hope he didn't catch my bluff. Enzo took two more steps, closing the distance between us. He grabbed my chin forcing me to look into his ice cold gaze. We stood like that for a minute before he released my chin from his grip and scoffed, "You'll kill yourself?" I nodded. Enzo reached into his pocket and pulled out a pocket knife, he harshly grabbed my hands and placed it in my palm. Taking a few steps back he spoke, "Do it then." My eyes widened as my hands started to uncontrollably shake, "Do what?" I managed to mutter out. "Kill yourself, I'm making it easy for you." Tears started streaming from my eyes, "I..." I attempted to speak but a lump in my throat prevented me from doing so. My grip on the knife loosened and it fell onto the floor. Enzo grabbed the knife and placed it back into his pocket. He caressed my cheek with his thumb, gently wiping away my tears. "It wasn't supposed to be like this, Fiore. Not yet atleast." "But I can't bear to let you go."
