It never mattered how far I ran … he was always going to catch me. Because I belong to him—body, mind, and soul.

My innocence is gone.
My father is dead.
And I’m no longer the girl who was forced to marry a hitman.

I’m stronger.

For the last five years I’ve been running from both my sister’s vengeful anger, and from my husband’s intense obsession.

When Gaven finally captures me—I have no other choice but to use him the same way he always planned to use me. The closer I am, the more information I have, the safer we both are. So, I’ll take his punishment for leaving. I’ll take his pain and his pleasure.

My wedding night might have ended in pain and betrayal, but I won’t let my life end the same.

He’s a killer and I’m a target. In the end, someone has to die, but who is it going to be this time?
