FULL SYNOPSIS

She's mine.
She has been mine for a long time, she hasn't just accepted it yet.
But it doesn't matter to me, I'll make her understand that Freedom is overrated and my Cage is what she's made for. I'll protect her with my life, keep her safe from the world and make her demons bleed. I'll give her the world on a silver platter, I just want her to choose to be with me.
To be Trapped with me forever and ever despite everything I have done, because one thing I'll never do was to let her walk away from me. And for that I'll do anything and everything.

ERICA
I never thought doing the right thing would hurt so much, but it did.
The moment I left his side, the man who hurt me, I felt nothing but pain. My heart longed for the man who was obsessed with keeping me safe even though he hurt me in the process. And against everything, I wanted to unravel his deep dark secrets and love him in places he was hurt.
Even though how much I tried not to be, I was his. I belonged to him in every way that could be possible. He made it so.
To be honest, I never had a chance, he was playing for the win and I lost.
Maybe I was right to think that I could never have the happily ever after, and he wasn't giving me one. Because his love was all Dark and Twisted.
(This is the second book of a Duo Series, Readers are advised to read the First book- 'CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance', before this book.)

Prologue ANTONIO (Past) It hurt. I didn’t think it was supposed to hurt that much. But no matter how much it hurt, I couldn’t cry. I couldn’t scream. And I couldn’t ask for help. If I cried I’d be nothing but a weak little boy, no matter that I was just ten years old. If I screamed Caterina would hear me and she would cry. If she saw what that fucker, who was our father but we hadn’t called him that in a long time, had done to me. It will hurt her. And out of her loyalty to me she will go against that bastard and to make him see his mistake which will be just another mistake on her part. And if that happens, this time I will not be able to save her. Not with the pain that was spreading through the soles of my feet that seemed to be on fire as I stumbled and took support from the wall. So I bit down on my bottom lip that throbbed from the cut, and kept my silence even as my legs trembled and taking each step became difficult and more difficult by the second. Breathing deepl
ERICAEverything turned blurry as Leo and Riley’s voice faded in and out. I didn’t understand what was happening except that my insides were turning to ice, my body was trembling and I needed Antonio.“Where are we going?” I heard Riley question that.“To the hospital.” Leo answered her.They both walked me out of the building after we stepped out of the elevator. I tried to focus on my surroundings as the outside air made it a little easier to breathe without wanting to wretch with all the mixed scents like it had been on the roof.“I need to make a call, can you take care of her for a moment?”“Of course.” Leo left me with Riley and we sat on the bench near the parking space. “Erica?” Riley tried to get my attention and I turned my head in her direction. There were two of her and I smiled. She smiled too, I think. She asked, “How are you feeling?”I opened my mouth, but my throat felt too dry and it took a few tries to say the words, “I n-need water...” It hurt to swallow.She looke
ERICAI woke up with a jerk in a sterile white room with white lights and smell of disinfectant. The last thing I remembered was walking or trying to walk with Leo and Riley, but as I breathed slowly and closed my eyes, the little bit of flashbacks rushed in. And through blurred memories snippets of Antonio came back. Like him holding me in his arms and I remembered him wiping my tears though I couldn't remember why I was crying in the first place. But his words were crystal clear in my mind, him telling me that no one will hurt me because he was there for me.The throbbing pain in various parts of my body pulled my attention to myself and I pulled the blanket off to find myself in a blue hospital gown. My eyes tracked the bandages on my arms and one around my wrist in the left hand, besides them I could feel that there was one on my shoulder too and another on my side. For a brief moment I wondered why I was covered in bandages like I had a fight with a wild cat but then... my eyes w
Erica I woke up to loud shouts and curses outside my room. At first I sat there confused as to who was shouting in the hospital but the moment his deep voice registered in my mind, my whole body went on alert mode and I slid out of the bed. I ignored the warnings that echoed in my mind of the nurse and Ephraim as they had told me not to pull out the IV like I had done the first time but as the tenor of his voice rose and echoed down the hallway outside which I could hear clearly as the door to my room was wide open, I didn't care and pulled it out, biting back the painful gasp and cursing the swelling that had occurred after the first time I had so unceremoniously done it.I had been prepared for a lot of things that maybe he was having an argument with Ephraim or threatening the doctors like the nurse had suggested previously which had warmed my heart, her exact words were- 'I felt a little jealous to watch a man care for a woman so much', but instead I found him being manhandled by
ANTONIOPast and present blurred in my mind as phantom fingers of the long ago memories clutched me tight in their grips. As much as I fought the darkness, every time it dragged me down deeper. I didn’t know how much time it took me to wake up from the haze of pain, the only thing that I remembered was Mario holding my hand and sitting beside me. It was the same scene from when I was a kid. And what woke me up was not anything else but her.As the memory replayed like every time it had in all these years, this time when my younger self looked back over its shoulder, the bloody red footprints weren’t there. No, it was worse. This time Erica was there, unconscious in a pool of blood around her. And it was that nightmare that woke me up. I sat up too fast and without any care, and instantly blinding pain raced down my back. “Easy, there...” i recognised Mario’s voice, and when I turned to look at him, I found his eyes searching my face.I rubbed a palm down my face and asked, “Where is E
ERICAI woke up feeling like someone locked me in a sauna. For half a second I was confused until my body recognised the familiar cage of his arms and the scent of him that was uniquely his. When I opened my eyes I found him half lying beside me and half of his body was beneath mine as my head and my bandaged arm rested on his chest and stomach. I slightly tipped my head back and looked at him. His eyes were closed but there was a frown line on his forehead which I smoothed with the soft touch of my fingers. He was hot to the touch, almost feverish and my heart ached for him. This man, so complicated with so many layers, I didn't know how to understand him or how much I truly do and even if that was right.He looked tired and so vulnerable as there were dark circles beneath his eyes. I ached to see him like this, my eyes stung as I thought that he was here, looking like this because of me. This mountain of a man shielded me with his body so I won't get hurt. He saved me by putting h
ERICAThe kiss might’ve started slow but soon it escalated and became hungrier and desperate as I clutched my fingers in his hair and Antonio tightened his fingers around my throat. Even as my chest constricted for a lungful of oxygen I didn’t want to pull away from him and he didn’t seem to be in any hurry to do so himself. “Fûck, little devil. You make me insane with need and want and...” His eyes met mine, similar to liquid gold, and the unsaid word hung between us.I cupped his cheek and leaned up to nibble on his bottom lip, matching the fever in his eyes. “Antonio...” There was no hiding the needy whimper that escaped me.“My little devil...” He slipped his hand back between us and used his fingers to part my folds. “Are you feeling empty?” I nodded. “Words.”“Yes... please.” I finished it with sliding the soft silk of his robe from his shoulders and smoothening my palms down on his back, only to stop when my fingers came in touch with the bandages wrapped around his torso. Onc
ANTONIOThe doctor showed his reluctance to let us leave, especially for me with his proclamations that I could get an infection if I didn't get the proper treatment. And I was ready to ignore him and Ephraim but Erica was the one who made it impossible to gather her in my arms, bundle her up and go straight to the castle where I could hide her. Even though I knew she was doing it for me but when she insisted that we stay in the hospital for another day under doctor’s observation I couldn’t say no to her. And especially when she was glued to my side, looking at me with those shining stars in her eyes and the desire that I have never really seen in her eyes before. It was like putting my life on the line for her opened something inside her and it wasn’t just that, her realisation that I could get hurt too, her fear for me made my chest warm and the change it brought in the way she looked at me and touched me was something for which I’d take more bullets for her. Her worry for me was l
