"You said you wanted to taste freedom, right? Then, allow me to show you what freedom tastes like." Kirill Yevgenyevich Ivanov When Anastasia slipped Kirill Ivanovâs wallet from his pocket, sheâd thought she was only taking money from a billionaire whoâd never miss it. She couldnât have been more wrong. The truth is, sheâd stolen far more than cashâsheâd claimed his attention, a mistake that would rewrite every chapter of her life to come. On Kirillâs private island, hidden away from the world, sheâd been certain her sins would cost her everything. Death felt like the only price high enough for what sheâd done. But he surprised her. Instead of vengeance, he offered her a role: his secretary. For a moment, sheâd let herself believe heâd softened toward her. Then she learned the truthâevery kindness was a snare, every gesture a thread in a net heâd woven just for her. Kirill doesnât want revengeâhe wants ownership. Her body, tied to him by lies that burn like devotion on her tongue. Her mind, tangled in secrets only his touch can untangle. Her soul, lured by whispers of freedom⊠a lie she canât help but crave. When a spark ignites between hunter and hunted, their passion warps the world around them. The line between salvation and ruin begins to blur, until neither can tell where one ends and the other begins. But how long can Tasia surrender to the forbidden pleasure Kirill offers? How far will Kirill go to break her completelyâjust to make her his?Their story is a lethal game of desire and deceit, where love wears the face of ruin and surrender might be the deadliest sin of all. "Starting tomorrow, you'll be my secretary. My shadow. You'll fetch my coffee and file the receipts for the men I bury. And every night, you'll sit across from me at dinner, wearing the dresses I choose, eating the food I allow... and wondering when I'll finally snap." - Kirill Yevgenyevich Ivanov
