I always believed freedom was mine to keep. I had it wealth, power, and a future I’d carved out on my own terms. But one night, everything changed. A deal went wrong, a price was placed on my head, and I became nothing more than a pawn in the ruthless grip of the Cartel. Now, I’m trapped in his world—Santiago Torres, the cold-hearted king who runs the empire with an iron fist. The man who took me because I threatened his business and dared to defy him. His rules, his territory, and he demands submission. He’s infuriating, all raw dominance and smirking arrogance, but there’s something darker lurking beneath his ruthless façade. Something that keeps me guessing—and worse, wanting. He’s my captor, my enemy, and I want nothing more than to tear him down. But the more time I spend in his world, the more the lines between hate and desire blur, twisting me into knots I can’t untangle. I swore I’d never fall, but he’s already caged my heart.
The question now is, will I destroy him first… or will he destroy me?
