"No one touches what’s mine..." Dina Sterling was sold like a commodity, a pawn in a ruthless game of debt and power. Now trapped in Marcus Miller’s cold world, bound by a one-year contract, she’s supposed to play the perfect wife—a facade designed to bring peace to a beloved, fragile life. But as the clock ticks, that year begins to feel less like a contract and more like a cruel prophecy. Beneath the surface, danger lurks everywhere. Jealous friends want her gone, shadows from her past claw back, and a devastating truth about a cherished life threatens to shatter their carefully constructed world. Marcus, a man who trusts no one and controls everything, finds his carefully built walls crumbling as Dina stirs a storm he never saw coming. Things get messy when your fake wife starts looking too real, your best friend starts watching her like you're not enough, and the girl you once used for pleasure returns, seeking a revenge that runs deeper than mere heartbreak. She’s his property now, but the battle is far from over. When the lies unravel, and an unseen enemy closes in, the truth about a beloved life—and Dina's own tragic past—will demand a price no one anticipated. "Next time anyone touches you...tell me, I'll make sure to bury them all." Because in a world where love is a weapon, and trust a lie, the only rule is this: Protect what’s yours, or you lose everything.
