A Dangerous Debt

On what was supposed to be a celebration of freedom, Jayda's twenty-first birthday trip to Turks and Caicos turns into the moment her life is stolen.

What she doesn't know is that her existence has already been signed away, long before she ever stepped onto that plane.

Her father's debt to one of Kingston's most feared crime families was never about money alone. It was about ownership. And when repayment time arrives, the Thomas family doesn't come to negotiate.. they come to collect in full.

At the center of it all is Zahiré-the man who now holds their fate in his hands. Cold, calculated, and untouchable, he doesn't see her as a victim.

He sees a contract that has finally come due.
But Jayda is not as easy to break as they assumed. In a world where obedience is survival and defiance comes at a cost, she is forced to adapt, outthink, and endure. Yet the deeper she is pulled into their world, the more dangerous the truth becomes about her father, the debt, and the real reason she was kidnapped.

In captivity, lines blur between hate and survival, fear and control, power and something far more complicated.

The question is no longer how to escape.
It's what she will become before she gets the chance.

"Bratty, I see" he murmured.

He leaned back slightly, voice smooth but edged with certainty.

"Don't worry. I'm a brat tamer. I'll have you submitting in no time."

Jayda scoffed. "Go tame yuh muma. Fucking shit house."
