Noah Blake spent his whole life begging to be loved.
After losing his mother at a young age, the only thing he had left was art-the one thing that made the loneliness hurt a little less. While his powerful father buried himself in business and showered attention on his illegitimate son, Noah learned to survive quietly inside a house that never truly felt like home.
Invisible.
Unwanted.
Easy to break.
Until him.
Adrian Vercetti is the heir to one of the most dangerous mafia organizations in the city-a man raised in violence, control, and bloodshed. Cold. Untouchable. Feared by everyone around him.
He was supposed to watch Noah.
Nothing more.
But the moment Adrian notices the quiet artist with haunted eyes and paint-stained hands, something inside him shifts into something dark... possessive... obsessive.
And when Noah unknowingly becomes the target of dangerous enemies tied to both their pasts, Adrian makes a decision that changes everything:
No one touches Noah Blake.
Not his enemies.
Not his family.
Not even fate itself.
But the deeper Noah is pulled into Adrian's world of secrets, power, and violence, the more he realizes something terrifying-
The man protecting him may become the very thing he can never escape.
Because obsession isn't always cruel.
Sometimes...
it feels like love.
