He broke me once. Now, he’s trapped me in his empire.
Harper I was ruined by Damian Ignatov. The “Velvet Blade.” A handsome Bratva strategist. He’s lethal control in a tailored suit. He took what he wanted. He dismissed me like a cheap secret.
I swore I’d never submit again. Now, I’m back on his team. Our reunion is a battlefield. He pushes my limits. He wants my submission. I found a digital ghost that put a bullet in my name.
Now his most guarded secret is growing inside me. Running might kill us both.
Damian I live for control. Harper was a brilliant, curvy fire I should have extinguished. She was supposed to be a forgotten conquest. But she returned, sharper, bolder. She challenges my authority.
She is the only risk I take. The family ordered her execution. I gave them one alternative:
My wife. My possession. Protected under my banner. I will move heaven and earth to safeguard her. This time, the arrangement isn’t strategy. It’s a vow.
