    Summary

    #NO AI
    I was the Don’s niece. Supposed to be untouchable. Sheltered. Safe.
    But my uncle decided I was the perfect sacrifice to leash his most brutal enforcer.
    Dominic Russo is a slaughterhouse dressed in Italian silk. The man they send to make bodies disappear. A monster with pale, dead eyes who looks at me like I’m a problem he needs to solve.
    I thought I was just a plus-size girl with flour in her hair, trying to survive. But I stepped into the wrong alley, and now I’m his. Bound in a forced marriage to a man who breaks bones as easily as he breaks rules.
    I hate the dark, hungry way he looks at my soft curves. I hate that when his rough hands touch me, my fear turns into something traitorous and hot.
    "You don't belong in places like this," he whispers, backing me into the darkness of his bedroom. "But you belong to me."
    He doesn’t just want my obedience. He wants to sink his teeth into my innocence and consume me whole.
    This isn’t a love story. It’s a trap.
    So why is the hardest part not trying to escape... but trying not to fall for the man assigned to protect me?

    Summary

    Isabella Sinclair never wanted to breathe the same air as Lucian Blackbourne.

    When the nightmare became unbearable, she disappeared—cutting ties, burning bridges, and leaving behind the girl she used to be. She gave up everything, even her dreams, for a single chance at peace.

    But monsters don’t forget.
    And Lucian never let go.

    Years later, just when she thought she was safe, he returns—richer, colder, more untouchable than ever. He’s no longer just the boy who broke her. He’s a man who owns everything. And everyone.

    Now, he's here to reclaim what he believes is his. Her life. Her body. Her future.

    There’s no safety in distance.
    No escape in silence.
    No mercy in his hands.

    Because Lucian Blackbourne isn’t coming back to haunt her.
    He’s coming to devour her.

    Summary

    The windows darken as Vivaldi plays. Through the glass, Isabelle watches something horrifying she can never unsee. Her husband's hand finds hers in the darkness.

    "Happy Valentine's Day, darling."
    --
    Jude Larssen is a legend in London - devastatingly handsome, brilliant, ruthless, untouchable. The man who built an empire through means no one questions too closely. The CEO whose attention makes careers and whose displeasure ends them.

    Isabelle thought she knew what loving him meant. The surveillance exerted for his thrill. The cold distance and absent-minded, rough fucking otherwise.

    But three years into a marriage she thought was dead, he shows her exactly how far his devotion extends. How deep his resources run. How creative his methods. The lengths he will reach to keep her compliant. Subservient. His.

    But Isabelle Hann has never been easy to break. There is still fight in her, defiance in how she challenges him, seeks warmth elsewhere.

    Jude doesn't just want to keep her. He wants her to yield. And he has all the money and patience to make it happen.

    Some cages are lined with silk.
