"You don't run from the devil. You crawl to him. And you pray he wants to keep you."
Elena Reyes is out of time. Her brother's betrayal has marked her for death, and the cartel wants blood. Hers.
Desperate and alone, she makes a deal with the most dangerous man in the city-Dante Moretti, heir to the Moretti crime family.
His price? Obedience.
Her safety comes at the cost of freedom. And as tension simmers behind locked doors, Elena finds herself trapped in a world of power, desire, and control...
But Dante isn't just cold. He's calculating.
And he didn't bring her here to be safe.
He brought her here to break her.
This isn't love.
It's obsession.
