Sypnosis
At first, I believed that the worst thing that could happen was my father abandoning me in that store, but I was mistaken.
I was kidnapped, sold, and betrayed by the only man I trusted: my father. And I was bought by Lucian Moretti, my childhood love, Luke, who I thought was gone.
"Do you remember me, Jules?"
His voice was velvet over steel, low, threatening, and hauntingly familiar. Julia hadn't heard Lucian Moretti's name in almost a decade, since the boy next door disappeared without a goodbye, leaving her with only a stolen summer and a thousand unsolved questions.
Now he was no longer the boy I used to know. He was Lucian Moretti, the man who had just taken control of her life.
Julia is lured into the shadows to settle a debt she never owed, and she ends up confined in the home of the city's most feared mafia don. Captivity is just the beginning.
Lucian isn't just after her body; he's seeking the truth that she is unaware she is concealing. This truth has the potential to destroy his empire.
Their reunion is not nice; it is nasty. His smile is not tender; it is poisonous.
And what games are they playing? It concludes with one of them kneeling.
But in the dark, the line between revenge and passion blurs, and Julia is unsure if she is his prisoner... or his obsession.
Lucian desires more than just retribution; he wants "her." This time, he won't let go.
"DON'T GET CAUGHT. DON'T GET CAUGHT. DON'T. FUCKING. GET. CAUGHT."
She chanted these words repeatedly, displaying reasons and visualising the aftermath of getting caught.
You'll be bonded. Restrained. Confined. With no freedom over yourself. Praying to the only goddess she knew she ran as fast as she could. Her mind repeatedly envisioned the things she could've done if she was normal like any another.
But she wasn't.
Out of a sudden, an authoritative force knocked her down. In a flash, her struggles, her efforts and her future took the fall with her.
Her jaw clenched, rage crippling into millions fragments beneath her skin. Her brain a maze of thoughts and fury.
She was caught.
