I was taken by a monster.
Then the man who broke my heart became my only way out.
I had one plan: escape during transport and disappear forever.
But my plan failed, and now I’m staring into the eyes of Zeke Rissi.
The man I haven’t seen in a year.
The man who doesn’t know I had his baby.
Now we’re hiding, running, surviving together.
Every look we share reignites the pain of our past.
Every touch threatens to unravel my carefully guarded secret.
But the man who claimed me won’t stop until he drags me back.
Zeke swears he’ll keep me safe—but he doesn’t do attachments.
If he finds out the truth, I’ll lose him for good.
My child deserves a future far from this brutal world.
But the closer Zeke gets to my heart, the more impossible it feels to let him go.
Enemies turned reluctant allies.
A secret baby he can never know about.
And a danger we can’t outrun.
How do you protect your child… when your heart belongs to the one man who could destroy it all?
