Ophelia Smith thought freedom was finally within her grasp—college, friends, a future of her own making. But one fateful betrayal landed her in the hands of Darren Cruz Delgado, a man as magnetic as he is merciless. Wealth, power, and danger cling to him like a second skin, and he wears his control with devastating ease. He tells her she’s his asset. His possession. His pequeña gatita. She swears she will never bend. Never yield. Yet every time he draws near, her resolve trembles. His voice velvet wrapped around steel, his touch a contradiction of tenderness and command. He is the enemy she should despise… but when his breath grazes her skin, when his eyes darken with hunger, her body betrays her with a longing she cannot name. What starts as a war of wills becomes a dangerous dance of temptation. Each clash burns hotter, each near-kiss leaves her aching for more. Darren swears he can wait—that one day, she will give herself to him freely. And the more Ophelia resists, the more she fears he may be right. But beneath the magnetic push-and-pull lies a storm of betrayal, hidden enemies, and shocking revelations that threaten to tear them apart. Caught between fury and desire, freedom and surrender, Ophelia must decide if defying him will save her heart… or if loving him will be the ultimate risk in a game neither can afford to lose. A darkly seductive romance of power, passion, and the dangerous line between captivity and devotion—where hate ignites into desire, and every touch threatens to unravel them both.

Admitted to one of the prestigious universities, Eli's goal is to study hard and stay away from trouble. But one bad choice changes everything. Dragged into the clutches of a violent syndicate, Eli made a split-second decision. He grabbed the tattooed young man and pressed a knife to his throat, "Come close and I'll kill him." The gang froze in pure terror. Eli didn't see the faint smirk curling on his hostage's lips. Trying to ease his guilt of dragging the innocent bystander into this mess, Eli agrees to let the “poor, traumatized man” stay with him. But Alexei Vetrov isn’t some helpless victim. He’s the heir to the Russian mafia. And now that he’s gotten a taste of his pretty exorcist’s gentleness? He has no intention of letting Eli go. By the time Eli realized the truth, it was far too late to run. Alexei loomed over him, one hand pinning Eli’s cuffed wrists to the mattress as his knee forced his legs apart.
