Phoenix Ifrinn doesn't want love—he craves blood.
And I'm his prey.
Our families ripped each other apart.
Now, for ten years, he’s been sharpening his blade, planning my destruction.
But he doesn’t know the truth.
I’ve been hiding his child for a decade.
Brigit isn’t my goddaughter—she’s ours.
Our marriage is a death sentence wrapped in white silk.
Every night, he breaks me.
Every morning, I bleed.
Every day, I watch our daughter call another woman "mama."
He thinks I'm weak. Broken. His perfect victim.
Tonight, when bullets shatter our bedroom window and his enemies close in,
The truth detonates between us like a bomb.
Phoenix discovers he's been torturing the mother of his child.
And that changes everything.
