The Devil Doesn't Bargain

Elioenai Louisette Montanari is the bratty heir of the Montanari family, at least that's what they call her behind closed doors. Ignored by her father, mistreated by her stepmother, and constantly undermined by her half-sister, she grew up in a house that felt more like a battlefield than a home. But Elioenai was never the kind of girl who waited to be saved. This wasn't a fairytale, and she refused to be anyone's Cinderella. She fought back, bit back harder, and made one thing clear, no one would ever break her.

Until the night she tried to leave for good, and everything went wrong. A mistake led her into the wrong hands, and Elioenai was taken, not for ransom, but into an underground world where people disappear and never return. A place with no mercy, no escape... and no second chances. She was meant to become just another name buried in silence. Until he noticed her, a devil in human skin who doesn't bargain, doesn't hesitate, and never lets go.

Because a devil doesn't bargain.

HE TAKES.
