Shadows Between Us

Liora spent her whole life trapped between rules and expectations-raised to be perfect, controlled, and untouched by the world. But behind her parents' strict beliefs, she built a secret life. One filled with stolen nights, hidden love, and a burning desire to be free.

Three years later, she has everything she fought for-independence, a career, and distance from the life that once suffocated her. But freedom comes with consequences.

A night of reckless choices brings her face to face with a stranger she can't fully remember... yet can't seem to forget.

Because he remembers her.

Marcello. Powerful. Dangerous. Untouchable. A man who lives in shadows and rules a world she knows nothing about.

What Liora doesn't know is that their story didn't start that night.
It started three years ago... when she saved a dying man who should have never been found.

Now, he's back. Watching. Waiting. Claiming.

As her past and present collide, Liora is pulled into a world of obsession, power, and secrets where love is dangerous, trust is fragile, and freedom might cost her everything.

Because in Marcello's world...

once you're his, you don't leave.
