What’s worse than being hunted by the Mafia? Being the reason they’re hunting you— and not knowing why… Look, I didn’t do anything wrong. I was just doing my job. Until I found the drugs. Hidden inside the plane. Then everything went wrong. The crash. The fire. The screams. I should have died with everyone else. Instead… I woke up accused. My father murdered. My mother barely alive. And the world calling me the traitor. That’s when he found me. Ruslan Zaytsev. Cold. Controlled. A man who looks at me like I already belong to him. He doesn’t rescue me. He takes me. He says it’s protection. But his protection feels like a cage. Everywhere else… survivors are being erased. One by one. And when I try to run, he drags me back— voice low, lethal, unshakable. “You don’t get it yet, do you?” I shake my head. His grip tightens. “You weren’t meant to survive that plane.” Now I’m trapped between a war I don’t understand and a man who refuses to let me go— Because the truth is… He wasn’t sent to save me. He was sent to kill me. Author’s Note: A dark, emotionally intense mafia romance featuring kidnapping, forced proximity, obsession, and a ruthless alpha hero. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed.
