Velvet Chains
In the shadows of the cityâs most notorious club, where danger and desire intertwine, he sees her.
Valerio Morettiâruthless, feared, and untouchableâis 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 doesnât belong. Her stiff movements, wide eyes, and barely concealed fear as men paw at her set her apart from the others. She's innocentâtoo innocent for a place like this. And that's what draws Valerio in like a flame.
One night, Valerio breaks the rulesâhis own rulesâand 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 doesnât know who he is. She doesnât want him. But he always gets what he wantsâand 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 Valerioâs control lies a man with a dark past... and behind Seraâs fear, a secret that could shatter them both.
Heâs her captor. Sheâs his temptation.
And in this game, love could be their ultimate ruin.
