Trapped with your enemy in an underground bunker?

              Trapped in an underground bunker with her sworn enemy, she finds herself face-to-face with the man who let her father die-the man who holds ultimate power as Russia's Army General. She's spent her life plotting revenge, determined to bring his family to their knees and to watch him fall. 

               But when a single mission goes fatally wrong, and he sacrifices himself for her. The move shatters everything she thought she knew, unsettling her hatred and forcing her to question who this man truly is.

              Now, armed with the final piece of evidence to end him, she faces an impossible choice. Choosing to believe this man had changed she decides to give him the benefit of doubt. Thus, shunning every other warning. Unknown to her, his motives run far deeper and darker and she's only but a pawn in his actual game.

            She's caught in a dangerous game. Because he's seen her hatred, knows her every move, and his obsession runs deeper and darker than she ever imagined. He wants her close, bound to him, even if it means bringing the world to ruin. 

            Caught in his possessive grip, with nowhere left to run, she's forced to ask herself: will she risk everything to bring him down, or give in to the dangerous thrill of being his, even if it destroys her?

Falling for Forbidden by PreetSim

She was once the cherished daughter of a respected professor, but now, she is nothing more than a shadow in the city-poor, struggling, and alone. Whispers follow her wherever she goes. Beauty like hers, they say, is a curse for a girl without power. They assume she'll do anything for money. But she is fire, untamed and unbroken. The university, once her father's legacy, is now under the control of a powerful man-a man who watches her with a cruel smile, waiting for the moment she will break. He holds the strings to her fate, dragging her into a silent war where wealth and control always win. Then, he returns. The boy who once played by her side, the boy who vanished the night of the tragedy, is back-no longer a friend, no longer the boy she knew. Now, he stands at the front of the lecture hall, wearing the title of Professor. His cold, unreadable eyes lock onto hers. His touch lingers like a ghost from the past. He helps her in the shadows, yet she feels his presence in every downfall she faces. Does he still hold the warmth of their past, or has he returned only to watch her drown? As secrets unravel and desires ignite, she must decide-fight against the power that seeks to destroy her, or surrender to the darkness lurking within the man she once called her own.
