Life can be cruel. One moment you’re on the verge of reaching the peak of your career, your sweetheart of five years finally down on one knee, promising forever. The next, your world burns to ashes—literally. Now, I’m not just a prisoner; I’m the plaything of the most feared man in the country. I told myself I hated him, that I’d never break. But what kind of woman starts to crave the way he owns her body, the way his touch sets her on fire? How do you survive when the man who owns you is as ruthless as he is captivating? How do you escape a man who makes you question everything, even your sanity? ————- When her father’s PTSD causes a catastrophic accident, Lucia Castellano finds herself at the mercy of Dante Romano, a man whose name strikes fear into the heart of Chicago’s criminal underworld. Taken as a slave to pay for her father’s alleged crime, Lucia is thrust into a world of power and seduction she never imagined. Dante’s command is absolute, his touch both punishing and intoxicating. What starts as a fight for survival soon turns into a dangerous game of submission and trust. But as secrets surface and enemies close in, Lucia and Dante must confront their darkest fears to find freedom—and perhaps love—in the most unlikely of places. Author’s Note: This book contains explicit content, strong language, violence, and other adult themes that may be disturbing to some readers. Reader discretion is advised.

Chapter 2 - You’re Here To Warm My Bed
Lucia's POV After humiliating me, Dante dismissed me immediately. He ordered a maid to escort me to my room. My head hung low as I slowly followed the maid down the hall.I was naked, exposed, and ashamed. My body stiffened, and this time, the tears kept flowing down my cheeks like an uncontrollable river.The maid halted in front of a wooden door at the end of the hallway. She turned to gaze at me, and I could have sworn I heard her sigh.“This is your room. Master Dante has ordered me to bring you a new set of clothes and food.”The mention of food made me scoff bitterly. Was he offering me food after embarrassing me in front of his men? Did he truly think I would have any appetite after what had just happened? After the way he had treated me?Shaking my head, I replied, my voice quiet but filled with disdain, “Keep the food, I won’t be needing it.” My hand gripped the doorknob, and I twisted it, trying to escape the weight of the humiliation. But the maid’s hand reached out and st

Chapter 3 - I Don’t Do Favors
Lucia's POV As expected, Dante’s meeting had turned out to be more than just a meeting. It involved a shady deal regarding illegal drugs. I had been prepared for something like this. Everything about him screamed danger, from the sharp edge of his presence to the piercing intensity of his gaze.He had to be at least 12 years older than me, based on the rumors I’d heard, yet he still looked youthful—and undeniably handsome.I caught myself, mentally scolding myself for even entertaining such a thought. What was I thinking? Dante was nothing but a cold-blooded jerk—a man who made it clear that no one crossed him and lived to tell the tale.After the meeting, he took me to a small warehouse where I witnessed something that solidified my fear of him. He interrogated a man with a ferocity that left no room for mercy. I stood frozen, unsure of how to react. When we left the warehouse, I couldn’t stop thinking about the man he’d left behind in a pool of blood.My instincts told me to turn b

Chapter 4 - The Discovery
Lucia’s POVDante stuck to his promise, but not without conditions. He assigned one of his men to escort me. As we approached the house I once shared with my father, a wave of anxiety washed over me. My steps faltered in front of the door, and I hesitated.This wasn’t just a house—it was a graveyard of memories.I glanced back briefly, my mind flashing to Dante’s warehouse. The fire, the gunshots, and the chaotic night that changed my life played in my head like a cursed film reel. The night that turned me into Dante’s captive.I clenched my fists and forced myself to focus. Knocking seemed almost absurd—it was my home once, but now, I wasn’t sure where I belonged. Just as I raised my hand, the door opened, revealing my father.“Lucia.”His voice trembled, barely above a whisper. He looked at me like I was a ghost. His face was worn, his eyes shadowed with exhaustion, and the lines on his forehead seemed deeper than I remembered.“Dad,” I said, my voice cracking. I couldn’t stop mysel

Chapter 5 - I’ve Got Decades Of Experience
Lucia's POVThe ride back to the mansion was silent, but my thoughts were anything but. The name Vincenzo Calderone echoed in my mind, refusing to let me rest. When we finally arrived, I stepped out of the car and walked into the living room, where I found Dante seated on the couch. A bottle of tequila in his hand, and his expression unreadable.“I’m back, Sir,” I announced, trying to steady my voice. Dante rose from his seat, his presence imposing as he walked toward me.“How did it go?” His voice was calm, but there was an edge to it. He tilted his head slightly, brow arched. “Did you find answers?”His sudden question caught me off guard, and I staggered back, confusion flooding me. I hadn’t told him I was seeking answers—why was he asking?“I—I don’t… understand,” I stammered, the words faltering as my mind raced to make sense of his knowledge.Dante scoffed. He took another slow sip of his drink, eyeing me with an almost amused detachment. “What do you mean, you don’t understand?

Chapter 6 - I Like The Chains
Dante's PovThe fire at the warehouse was like a crack in the dam. I could feel everything I’d built, everything I was, threatening to crumble. Sitting in my private library, I swirled the whiskey in my glass, staring at it as if it held the answers to all my problems. It didn’t. It never did.I never asked for this life. At eighteen, I should’ve been worrying about college or girls, not burying my father and inheriting his bloodstained empire. My mother, though, she had always insisted I carry the torch. She called it our legacy. I called it a curse.Then came that night. The one I see every time I close my eyes. The smoke still clings to my nightmares. My mother’s screams. My sister’s cries. I tried to save them. God knows I tried. But I failed.They were gone in an instant. I barely escaped myself, crawling through blood and ash, barely holding on until one of my father’s men, Gabriel Rucci, saved me. I owe him my life.But when I woke from that nightmare, something inside me snapp

Chapter 7 - Hell Is Wherever I Decide It To Be
Lucia’s POVThe moment I stepped out of that conference room, I sucked in a shaky breath. But it did little to steady the pounding in my chest. The murmurs of the reporters faded, but I could still feel Dante’s sharp and cold gaze on me.I had made a terrible mistake challenging him in front of his people, and in front of the media. I knew the rules. Knew what it meant to speak out of turn, to embarrass a man like him. Yet, I had done it anyway, unable to hold my tongue when they dragged my father’s name through the mud.“My father is innocent.” I could still hear my own voice echoing in my head.Foolish.I had barely made it down the hall when I heard heavy footsteps behind me. My breath caught as a firm grip closed around my wrist, yanking me into an empty room before I could react.Dante.The door banged shut behind us, cutting off the noise from the hallway. The air between us felt charged, as his fingers remained wrapped around my wrist—not hard enough to hurt, but firm enough to

Chapter 8 - A Feast Before The Storm
Lucia’s POVThe sharp voice of the news anchor startled me awake, pulling me out of my restless sleep. I must have dozed off watching the news, but as my eyes opened, the screen was still filled with the same harsh accusation.My hands clenched into fists as rage filled my chest.“This is how they do it,” i muttered under her breath. “They don’t need facts. They just twist words until people believe the worst.”I suddenly felt sick. The media didn’t know my father, they didn’t know the man who had worked tirelessly to provide for his family, who had built his reputation through sweat and sacrifice. He wasn’t perfect, but he wasn’t reckless.. at least, not intentionally.I grabbed the remote and shut off the TV, breathing heavily. The more they dragged my father’s name through the mud, the more certain i became that this wasn’t just about the fire. Someone wanted him ruined to cover up their tracks. And I had a pretty good idea who.No.I wouldn’t let them do this.Throwing off the bla

Chapter 9 - A Reason To Stay
Dante’s POV“The Romano warehouse fire continues to make headlines, drawing comparisons to the tragic Romano estate fire years ago. In both cases, lives were lost, and in both cases, questions remain unanswered...”My jaw clenched.The media loved to stir up ghosts that should have stayed buried. They didn’t know what the hell they were talking about. The fire that took my family hadn’t been an accident or some careless mistake. It had been a goddamn execution, a message from men who thought they could erase the Romano name from history.They had failed.I drained my whiskey in one swallow, the burn doing nothing to calm the fire raging inside me. I poured another, barely paying attention to the news playing in the background. The comparisons to my past were nothing more than fuel to the fire… a reminder that some wounds never fucking heal.I had intended to see Lucia, maybe even explain why I had missed the date I planned.What was I even thinking? I brought her here to suffer for wh

Chapter 10 - More Than You Can Imagine
Lucia’s POVMy breath stilled as the detective’s gaze settled on me. His presence alone made the air feel heavier. I hadn’t expected to walk into this—to see him standing there, looking at me like I was a puzzle he was trying to solve.The worst part? He was close. Too close.I forced myself to relax, to smooth out my expression, but it was too late. He had seen my hesitation, and now he was interested.He smiled. “And who might you be?”Dante didn’t move, but I felt his presence shift like a predator sensing an approaching threat. His body was a barrier between me and the detective, but it wasn’t enough to stop the weight of the man’s scrutiny.I swallowed. “Lucia,” I said evenly.The detective’s eyes flickered, something unreadable flashing across his face before he nodded. “Lucia… You match a description I was given.”Dante’s posture stiffened. “That so?” His voice was smooth, but I could hear the lethal edge beneath it.The detective ignored him, keeping his focus on me. “I receiv
