Zara Thompson had survived it all…Poverty, bullying, and abandonment—but nothing could prepare her for the chaos of saving a stranger’s life. One night, changed her whole world, she saved Dominic Vale’s sister from a fatal accident, and in that instant, she stepped into a world of power, wealth, and danger she had never known. “You saved my sister,” Dominic’s voice cut through the chaos, calm but commanding. “Ask for anything.” He always believed everything came with a price. Zara, caught off guard and socially awkward, whispered the impossible: “Um… a husband? For my visa…” How else was she supposed to secure her stay in this country? Dominic smiled, dark and dangerous. “Done.” Zara gasped, She was now bound to a man whose love was foreign, whose obsession was suffocating, and whose empire was impenetrable. She had a protector, a husband, a life and world she didn’t belong to. But she had also made a mistake: she had no idea how much power, desire, and danger would follow.
