"You’re used to control,” she said quietly. “But you miscalculated.” “How?” “You hit the wrong car.” A pause. “And you underestimated the wrong woman.” — Power doesn’t intimidate her. And it doesn’t impress him. Kholod Voda—a ruthless Russian mafia boss who built his empire on precision, silence, and control. Niran Bricolla—a self-made global CEO who doesn’t follow rules, doesn’t ask permission, and doesn’t tolerate weakness. Their first encounter isn’t accidental. It’s a mistake. One that neither of them is willing to ignore. What begins as a clash of authority quickly turns into something far more dangerous—where every interaction is a test of dominance, every conversation a calculated move, and every step closer a risk neither of them is used to taking. They don’t trust. They don’t yield. And they don’t lose control. But when a common enemy from Niran’s past resurfaces—the same man who once held Kholod captive as a child—they are forced to choose: destroy each other, or burn the world together.And some choices cost everything.
