Velvet Chains
In the shadows of the cityās most notorious club, where danger and desire intertwine, he sees her.
Valerio Morettiāruthless, feared, and untouchableāis the most dangerous name in the criminal underworld. He owns the city, one blood-soaked deal at a time. Women throw themselves at his feet, yet none have ever caught his eye... until her.
Sera Devlin is an enigma behind red velvet curtains. A stripper who doesnāt belong. Her stiff movements, wide eyes, and barely concealed fear as men paw at her set her apart from the others. She's innocentātoo innocent for a place like this. And that's what draws Valerio in like a flame.
One night, Valerio breaks the rulesāhis own rulesāand barges into her dressing room. Half-dressed and startled, Sera throws him out without a second thought, unaware she's just challenged the devil himself.
Now, Valerio is obsessed.
She doesnāt know who he is. She doesnāt want him. But he always gets what he wantsāand he wants her.
As their worlds collide in a twisted game of dominance, secrets, and forbidden desire, Sera finds herself caught in a cage made of diamonds and danger. But behind Valerioās control lies a man with a dark past... and behind Seraās fear, a secret that could shatter them both.
Heās her captor. Sheās his temptation.
And in this game, love could be their ultimate ruin.
