She signed the contract to save herself. But she didn't know she was signing away her soul to the same person who destroyed it. Riana's life was already over before she walked into that room. Her father's gambling debts had consumed everything, her home, her future, her hope. When the loan sharks came knocking, she was faced with an impossible choice: sell herself to one man or be devoured by many. She chose the devil she didn't know. His name is Matteo Blackwood. Powerful. Ruthless. Devastatingly beautiful. His blue eyes hold secrets she's terrified to uncover. His hands can bring pleasure or pain. The contract is simple: her body for his pleasure until her debt is cleared. Nothing more. Nothing less. But nothing about him is simple. He doesn't just take her body, he consumes her. He marks her, breaks her, and rebuilds her in his image. He speaks of ownership like it's a love language. He looks at her like she's the only thing in the world worth saving. And he has no intention of ever letting her go. But there's something he's not telling her. A secret that reaches far beyond the walls of his mansion. A past that threatens to destroy them both. An enemy who will stop at nothing to take everything from him, including her. Is she his salvation? Or is she just another casualty? In this world of power and obsession, Riana must decide: will she let him destroy her, or will she learn to become the one thing he never expected? His equal. She was sold to him. She will be owned by him. But she will not break. Because in the end, the devil doesn't just want her body. He wants her heart. And that might be the most dangerous thing of all.
