I didn’t fall in love.
I walked into a trap—eyes open, wrists bare, heart unguarded.
Dante promised escape.
Control. Power. Protection.
What he gave me was bruises I learned to crave, obedience that felt like choice, and a hunger I didn’t recognize until it owned me.
He taught me how to kneel.
How to break.
How to bloom in the dark.
I thought I was special.
I thought I mattered.
Then he left me in an abandoned warehouse with nothing but pain, lies, and a backpack full of stolen money—proof that I was never more than a pawn in his war for power.
Used.
Played.
Discarded.
But Dante made one mistake.
He forgot that monsters don’t just create weapons…
They create survivors.
And if he thinks I’ll disappear quietly, he’s about to learn what happens when a woman stops begging—and starts hunting.
A brutal, obsessive dark romance featuring a morally gray anti-hero, power imbalance and BDSM dynamics, cartel crime and betrayal, touch-her-and-die intensity, psychological obsession, and high-stakes passion with consequences.
