Marked By The Devil
Ace Deion Brewster - known in the underworld as Cartier - built his empire on drugs, power, and fear. Cold. Calculating. Ruthless. A man who doesn't believe in attachments... because attachments get you killed. First the Graduation then at his grand opening of his new nightclub (Club Prime) was supposed to be just another business money move. Another night of flashing lights, loud music, and deals made in the shadows. Then he sees her AGAIN Sanaa Dior Parker (Nana). She's not impressed by the money. Not intimidated by the reputation. And definitely not interested in the dangerous man watching her from the VIP balcony. Nana was a student by day Stripper by night. She is feisty, stubborn, and guarded - soft in ways she hides from the world. She doesn't belong in Cartier's life... but from the moment their eyes meet, walking away is no longer an option. What starts as curiosity turns into tension. Tension turns into obsession. And obsession in Cartier's world is never safe. Because the king of the underworld doesn't chase. He claims. And Nana might be the one thing powerful enough to make a ruthless man lose control.
