Ryker Romano is not just a man-he's a force of nature. The calm before the storm. The predator who watches from the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. They call him the Devil of Darkness and Deception, and they're right. He's everything I've been warned about, the enemy I've sworn to hate. Yet, fate has twisted our paths, and now I'm bound to him by a marriage neither of us can escape.
Behind his cold, piercing eyes and charming facade lies a man as dangerous as they come. Every smile is calculated. Every touch is a move in his deadly game. He didn't just lure me into his web-he built it just for me, and like a moth to the flame, I couldn't resist. Now, I'm caught in the center of his world, where loyalty is a myth, and betrayal is survival.
But I'm no damsel waiting to be destroyed. We're both playing a game where the stakes are our lives, and though Ryker thinks he controls every piece on the board, he's about to find out that I'm not the pawn he believes I am. I will unravel his plans, expose his darkest secrets, and when the final move is made, it will be my victory.

He was a disease, one I couldn't get rid of no matter how hard I tried. Everytime he's near, I feel myself turn into something I've never seen before. Like there's something under my skin only he is capable of bringing out. He's manipulative, twisted, and completely wrong in every way. I hate him. Yet every night, from miles away, I find him in my dreams. Mikhail Volkov Fuck the patriarchy. Better yet, fuck everything and everyone.
