Only Once: A Dark Captor Romance (The Dark Protector #1)

He didn’t ask permission.
He didn’t say please.

He just took her.
And dared her to run.

Mira knows the rules—don’t walk alone, don’t make noise, don’t let them see you flinch.
But the night she’s followed home, another man steps in.

He’s not a savior.
He’s not a monster.
He’s something else entirely.

Niko doesn’t shout. Doesn’t threaten. Doesn’t touch—unless she asks.
And she’s starting to want to ask.
He says she was marked. That he took her to protect her.

But he’s got blood on his hands, secrets behind locked doors, and eyes that promise everything she’s never been allowed to want.

He tells her she’s free to leave.
But only once.
If she walks, she walks alone.
If she stays... she belongs to him.
Rough hands.
Soft voice.
And one brutal, consuming obsession
