She crossed countries to escape her past. He built an empire to outrun his. Aanya never trusted powerful men. Not after growing up in a world where control disguised itself as love. Adriano is everything she should avoid. Ruthless. Untouchable. Dangerous in the quietest ways. A man who commands rooms with silence and destroys people with precision. Their first meeting is a disaster. Their second becomes a challenge. And every encounter after that turns into something far more dangerous: understanding. Because beneath Adriano's control is a past as fractured as hers. And beneath Aanya's anger is a girl who has never truly felt safe. They don't believe in love. Only survival. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to decide what's more terrifying: the ghosts they carry... or finally finding someone who sees them completely.
