Elena Voss never meant to see death up close. One wrong turn on a late-night story and she watches a man get shot in cold blood. The killer is Arjun Vathore — rich, powerful, and the most dangerous man in Las Vegas. Before she can run, he takes her. Now she’s locked inside his huge mansion, far from everything she knows. No phone. No escape. Just silk sheets, expensive clothes, and the man who should terrify her. But every time Arjun looks at her, heat builds low in her belly. His voice is low and rough when he tells her she belongs to him now. His hands are rough when he pulls her close during their fights. And when he finally kisses her — hard, hungry, demanding — she kisses him back even though she hates herself for it. She fights him every day. She tries to run. She tells herself he’s a monster. But at night, when the mansion is quiet, she craves the way he touches her. The way he makes her moan his name. The way he looks at her like no one else ever has. Then pieces of her forgotten past start coming back. Dark secrets. Blood ties. Lies that could destroy them both. Someone else wants her dead — someone closer than she ever imagined. Now Elena is trapped between a man she should fear and a desire she can’t control. Will she choose the truth and lose the only person who’s ever made her feel alive? Or will she give in to the dangerous pleasure of being the billionaire mafia’s captive?
