Amaris Vega is a fiercely independent woman thriving in the heart of the city, running her successful PR firm and refusing to kneel to anyone, especially not to the ghost from her past. But when her family's legacy forces her into an arranged marriage, she finds herself shackled to the last man on Earth she'd ever trust with her heart.
Adonis Rourke has been watching Amaris for years-obsessed, fixated, and dangerously devoted. From the shadows of their high school rivalry to the towers of power they now dominate, he's always wanted her. Not just to have her-but to own her. Body, mind, and soul.
Their marriage was never meant to be about love. But as old grudges ignite into white-hot obsession, and their twisted desire grows darker and more depraved, the line between hate and hunger blurs. Wax drips. Knives tease-power shifts. And Amaris begins to wonder if the real danger isn't in being with Adonis, but in how much she likes it.
He's addicted to her defiance.
She's drowning in his obsession.
And neither of them wants to be saved.

By blood, by design
She was supposed to be his pawn. He was never meant to be her future. When powerful mafia heir Miles Moretti is forced into an arranged marriage to secure his family's empire, he expects a compliant bride and a silent merger. What he gets is Natalia Romano-an ambitious architect with secrets of her own, a quiet fire in her eyes, and no intention of being controlled. Bound by a marriage neither of them chose, their lives collide in a dangerous dance of power, betrayal, and slow-burning obsession. Natalia wants freedom. Miles wants loyalty. But what begins as a battle of wills becomes something darker, deeper... and far more dangerous. Because in a world built on blood and silence, love is a liability. And the closer they get, the more the past claws its way back-with enemies that strike from within, a mistress who won't stay buried, and a legacy that demands sacrifice. He's the man who was never supposed to fall. She's the woman who dared to see the light in his ruin. Now they must decide: Can they build a future from the ashes of an empire? Or will their love burn with everything else?Concluída
