Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)
I came to Hawaii chasing sun, surf, and freedom. Instead, I woke up drugged, locked in a cage, and halfway across the world. They said I was payment for a debt I never owed.
They called me a gift for Valiente Cárdenas, Mexico’s most ruthless cartel king. He never asked for me. He didn’t want me.
But the moment I fought back, I caught his dangerous attention… and sealed my fate.
I should be plotting escape every second his gaze burns into me. Yet every time he calls me “Little Red,” my body betrays me. The most terrifying truth? Part of me is already forgetting why I ever wanted to run.
“Why do you always call me that?” I whispered.
He grinned, fingers twisting in my soft curls. “Because you turn bright red every time you hear the word ‘fuck.’”

Chapter: Chapter 28: Prey-likeElodie's POV I looked down at the gun, then back at him. With an annoyed sigh, I shoved it against his chest. “Take your stupid gun.”His fingers wrapped around it with practiced ease.In one smooth motion, he removed the magazine, checked the chamber, engaged the safety, and set the pistol on the desk behind him.The entire process took only a few seconds, like he’d done it a thousand times. He slipped the gun back into the drawer before closing it with a quiet click.“See?” He tucked both hands into his pockets. “We can get along when you let me take control.”My stomach twisted, hearing his words and seeing the smile on his face.I slowly shook my head, folding my arms tighter. “Don’t flatter yourself,” I said, and one of his brows rose. “I’m not interested in whatever twisted fantasy you’ve got planned.”“Twisted fantasy?” he repeated, sounding genuinely puzzled.“You kidnapped me, locked me in this mansion, and refuse to let me leave.” I scoffed. “Forgive me if I don’t believe y

Chapter: Chapter 27: GunsElodie's POV With my heart in my throat, I tiptoed till I reached the door, head turning side to side, careful not to get caught.I gulped and peeked through the gap. I didn't notice anyone there, so I pressed closer, one hand placed against the door, and the other tightly gripping the side of my shorts.This was wrong. I knew I should've turned away the moment I noticed the door. But my curiosity got the better of me. Again.Nothing should've intrigued me in this house because everything about this place was bad luck.But here I was, snooping around.And now, I slowly pushed the door wider. It made a very low creak sound. I stepped inside, scanning around the room.It was a stiff space. Almost lifeless.It looked like an office—large desk, a leather chair, bookshelf with over a hundred books, a thick expensive-looking carpet at the center.The dim light didn't allow me to see the room fully. But I could make out that the paintings on the walls were all in black, white, and gray. Som

Chapter: Chapter 26: A Gold DiggerElodie's POV I swallowed hard, my fist tightly clenched on my thighs under the table. I hated his tone. I hate that he had this much power over me. I hate how he gets away with everything.And I hate how powerless I am towards him.With a low sigh, I unclenched my fists and stood up, pushing the chair back and it made a screeching sound. I walked towards the chair on his right side. Pulling the chair out, I slipped in, my gaze staring down at the table. Valiente suddenly pulled the chair sharply toward him. I gasped at the suddenness of it. My chair hit the table and I jerked forward, almost falling off.He leaned closer, and I looked up at him, heart pounding loudly in my chest. "Continue to be defiant around me, and you'll get what you're asking for," he said, his voice dangerously low.I knew not to test him in this situation. I simply nodded, turning my head away.Soon, dinner was served and we started eating. At least, I was the one eating. Valiente's eyes were glued to his p

Chapter: Chapter 25: Lose His ComposureElodie's POV Valiente took careful steps towards us. The guard’s fingers disappeared from my arm so quickly it was as if he’d been burned.He lowered his head. “My apologies, master.”Valiente didn’t answer. His dark eyes remained fixed on the guard, cold enough to make even me uncomfortable. Why does he have such an impact?“I don’t remember ordering you to manhandle her," he said to the guard. The guard swallowed, eyes moving everywhere but on Valiente. “I was only trying to stop her from entering the restricted area.”I almost scoffed. He was trying to keep me from entering the forest or was he harassing me? But I didn't say anything. “And grabbing her was your only option?” Valiente threw again, tilting his head to the side. The question came out too calm.The guard opened his mouth to speak again but it was as if the words got stuck in his throat. “I—” “I asked a question," Valiente cut him off. His tone had changed. The usual grin on his face had disappeared too.The guard s

Chapter: Chapter 24: Something So UninterestingElodie's POV Valiente's voice yanked my back to the present. "Is your staring habit a psychological disorder?" He asked. "I thought that was only reserved for me?"I jerked and whipped my head to him, a small frown on my face. Then I sneered. "The only one at this table with any sort of psychological history is you."I ignored his last sentence. I couldn't battle in words with him.He chuckled. My stomach flipped. I'd almost forgotten what he looked like with that smile. "Maybe," he shrugged. His face was more relaxed now. Those protruding veins on his forehead had vanished. "But one can never tell, just by looking at the innocent little red."I glared at him, crossing my arms across my chest. "I am not innocent," I said before I could stop myself. "And stop calling me that," I said quickly, trying to mask my embarrassment, hoping he hadn't caught on to my first words. "I'm not little, nor red."His grin widened. His dark eyes watched Mr so closely, like a predator to its prey. "T

Chapter: Chapter 23: TensionElodie's POV Perhaps I should've come up with an excuse not to join breakfast today. I should've used the fact that I haven't fully recovered. That would've been more believable.Rather I'm trapped here, on this table, sitting across from who could be Valiente's wife. The thought of this beautiful lady being married to the psychopath beside me made me sick to my stomach.Was she aware of the type of man he was? Maybe she didn't know that he kidnapped and imprisoned me here. I should tell her once he isn't in the room.But then, shouldn't she be angry that a girl was sitting so close to her husband?Could I have gotten it all wrong?My gaze stayed glued to the wedding band and engagement ring on her finger. The oval diamond looked huge—at least twenty-five carats—and it sparkled under the lights.Don’t ask me how I know about rings. It’s not like I’d spent hours looking them up online, hoping that one day Colin would get down on one knee and ask me to spend forever with him."Doesn't

"You’re fucking dripping," he muttered, moving in and out of her. "All wet for me."
He moved faster, rubbing her clit and she threw her head back. He took his fingers out and she groaned.
He ripped her dress and took her already hard pink nipple in his mouth, sucking and nibbling on it. She moaned even more, pushing her chest to his mouth. His hand played with the other exposed nipple and he twisted it, earning another loud moan from her.
She wanted to feel him. It's been too fucking long. "Fuck me..." she said, her voice almost inaudible.
Rico chuckled, so sinister yet so hot. "Such a needy little whore for me, aren't you?" He inserted two fingers inside her again, deep inside her, curling just right.
"Say it. Say you're my whore."
Calla didn't care if that made her feel worthless. She was a whore. His whore.
"I... I am your whore," she moaned out, trying to bite it back.
Rico smirked darkly.
He inserted another finger and she bit into his shoulder to muffle her moan. He gripped her throat with the other hand, just enough to remind her who held control.
"You like being used like this, don't you?" He growled against her ear.

Chapter: Epilogue : Happy Forever After 🤍~10 Months Later~ Rico didn’t bother parking the car properly. He was out of it before it had fully stopped, the door left swinging behind him as he pushed through the hospital entrance with heavy strides. His heart was beating too fast and too loud. His fingers were curled into tight fists at his sides, his jaw set hard with the impatience of a man who was not used to being anywhere other than in control... and who was currently very far from it. He moved through the hallway without slowing down, bumping into staff and visitors as he went. He didn't register any of it, as there was no room in him right now for apologies. He had to get to Calla. When his mother called, her voice was high and hurried in a way Donna Marta’s voice rarely was. Rico had been seated at the head of a table full of territory heads, in the middle of a meeting that had taken three weeks to arrange. He listened to four words and stood up. Without any explanation or handover, he simply walked out, and wha

Chapter: Author's Appreciation PostAuthor’s Note: Wheww, we’re finally at the end! 🎉 What a roller coaster this has been. I am unimaginably grateful to all the readers, supporters, and lovers of Rico x Calla’s story—for staying through the ups and downs, Calla’s betrayal, Rico’s rage, their reconciliation and romance, his near death, her near death too, and finally seeing their love bloom. It has truly been one hell of a wild ride 🫶🏾🤭 This book stayed with me for so long that finishing it honestly feels unreal. There were days I laughed while writing, days I got frustrated, and days I stared at the screen wondering if I could even do justice to these characters. But somehow, chapter by chapter… we made it here. Thank you to everyone who read, commented, voted, screamed, cried, and stayed till the very end (that has been my biggest motivation, you have no idea ❤️). Thank you for loving these characters almost as much as I did. This story started as an idea and slowly became something I’ll always carry with me.

Chapter: Chapter 236: All They Felt Was LoveCalla stayed in his arms for a few more seconds before finally pulling away. Rico looked at her for a moment. He lightly tilted his head toward the tent. “Come," he said.Calla smiled and followed him.Inside, she realized he had arranged an actual dinner. It wasn't overly luxurious, or something prepared to impress. It was things she liked.There was creamy seafood pasta, grilled chicken with herbs, warm garlic bread, roasted vegetables, and small bowls of fresh fruit arranged neatly to the side.Her lips slowly parted, and she turned to him. “When did you get all these prepared?”Rico chuckled lightly and sat down first. “It wasn't that hard, you know," he replied. That alone made her smile.Dinner passed more easily than she expected. At first, she thought the mood would feel emotional because of where they were.But somehow, it didn’t. Rico didn't let it get to that. They talked and laughed. She complained about him leaving her alone all day, and he defended himself. She accused h

Chapter: Chapter 235: Hold Something PreciousAs Rico and Calla stepped out of the mansion through the back door near the conservatory, Calla instinctively glanced around. Her brows pulled together slightly.This wasn’t the direction of the front driveway. Which meant, they weren’t taking the car?She looked at Rico walking beside her. He looked normal, with one hand staying in his pocket while the other loosely held hers as he led her down the stone path.Calla opened her mouth, then closed it, not finding the right words to say. Maybe she should wait.But when he continued walking past the garden and toward the darker path behind the mansion where the trees began, she couldn’t hold it anymore.“Uhm…” she called softly, and Rico looked at her. She pointed ahead. “Don’t you think this is the wrong way?”He stopped, turned toward her, and smiled. The kind she had started seeing more often recently. “It isn’t," he replied.Before she could ask more, he gently adjusted the coat around her shoulders and reached for her hand again.“W

Chapter: Chapter 234: Hot-Pink Lace DressWhen Calla woke up, she found herself alone in bed. A yawn escaped her as she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand, trying to clear the sleep from them. Her eyes slowly opened again, and she found Rico standing at the far corner of the room. He was on a call, and his back was partly turned to her and his voice was low, almost quiet enough to disappear into the room. Calla blinked and watched him for a few seconds, then Rico turned. His eyes landed on her immediately and something shifted in his expression. He said something quietly to whoever was on the other end before ending the call without hesitation. Calla frowned at his actions. Rico slipped the phone into his pocket and walked toward her. By the time he reached the bed, his expression had already softened. He leaned down and pressed a kiss to her cheek. “Good morning, beautiful.” Calla looked at him for a second. “Everything alright?” she asked instead. His eyes narrowed slightly, then he stepped back from the

Chapter: Chapter 233: Protect HerRico's pen stopped and he looked at his mother. He leaned back in his chair. "What about her?"She held his gaze, her fingers finding each other and twisting together lightly at her front, a gesture she wasn't aware she was making. "About her marriage."A small frown formed between his brows when he heard her. Was she here to get him to stop the marriage? She knew it was almost impossible for an arranged marriage among families like theirs to be called off once everything had already been agreed upon.Then what exactly did she want to talk about?"Speak," he said. Donna Marta inhaled softly. “I know you may not want to hear this, but I have to say it," she began, her voice careful, “When I was younger, nobody asked me anything.” Her eyes were lowered, aimed somewhere on the floor between them, somewhere in the past.“My parents decided who I would marry," she said and a faint smile crossed her face, like she had made peace with something that once broke her.

I could still feel his eyes ransacking my face and I know his eyes were more interested on my lips.
His thumb brushes lightly on my lower lip that was still held captive by my teeth, releasing it.
"I don't have a big mouth", I managed to say as I looked at him, regretting it.
I could see his jaw tightened and his eyes grow darker.
If I didn't know the type of maniac he was, I would have said he looks interested in me, but I know him.
"Oh you do love... and I imagine how it would look around my hard cock, moving up and down, just like the way you saw Irina do it last time", Nikolai said.
I gasped in shock at his words.
Of course I remember that day!
"You have no shame, do you?!", I asked in annoyance and all I could hear after that was his loud laughter.
I swear this is the first time I have seen him laugh.
"You're right my Kukolka, I have no shame... that's the only way to rule this world", he concluded and left me there.

I was starting to feel like I was going stir-crazy.Just as I was about to give up and take a nap, my phone rang. It was Galina."Hey, Lily!
