A CONTRACT FROM THE DEVIL
Elena Brooks didnāt sell her soul for money.
She sold it for her sisterās life.
When cold-hearted billionaire Alessandro Rossi offers her a way out of insurmountable debt. One year as his contract wife, she has no choice but to sign. One bed. Brutal rules. Total surrender. In exchange: five million dollars and protection from the enemies her father betrayed.
But Sandro Rossi is no ordinary billionaire.
He is the ruthless Don of the Rossi Syndicate, a man who takes what he wants and destroys what he canāt control.
Now trapped in his opulent penthouse, Elena finds herself at the mercy of a predator. Every lingering stare makes her pulse race. Every deliberate touch sets her skin on fire. Every whispered command strips away another piece of her resistance. The more she fights his dominance, the more shamefully she craves it.
As dangerous rivals close in and deadly secrets rise from the past, Elena realizes the real threat isnāt the contract.
Itās the monster whoās slowly claiming her body⦠and stealing her heart.
Some deals are written in ink.
Theirs was sealed in blood, lust, and obsession.
And once Sandro Rossi decides a woman belongs to himā¦
He never lets her go.

Chapter: Chapter 88Lucaās OfferThe prison of silk felt heavier than ever in the days that followed Elenaās failed escape attempt. The penthouse, once a symbol of luxury and protection, had become a beautifully decorated cage. Every room carried traces of Sandro. His cologne lingered in the air long after he left for work. His jackets still hung neatly in the dressing room. His coffee cup still sat on the kitchen island every morning before the staff quietly cleared it away. Even in his absence, he was everywhere, watching without being seen.Elena rarely left the master bedroom anymore. She found herself staring endlessly through the towering windows at the city below, wondering what freedom was supposed to feel like. The note Luca had slipped beneath the door never left her side. It remained folded inside the pocket of her robe, its edges beginning to soften from how many times she unfolded it only to read the same five words.I can get you out.Those words should have filled her with hope.Instead, t

Chapter: Chapter 87Prison of SilkThe silence between them stretched until it became unbearable.Elena stood frozen, her chest rising and falling in uneven breaths as the contents of her bag lay scattered across the polished marble floor. Claireās photograph rested between them like a silent accusation, while the burner phone and bundles of cash painted the full picture of her desperate attempt to disappear.Sandro didnāt move immediately.His dark eyes remained fixed on her, the fury simmering beneath their calm surface held in check by sheer force of will. Around them, no one dared breathe. The guards stood with their heads lowered, instinctively keeping their distance from the storm brewing between husband and wife.Elena swallowed hard.She knew that look.It was the same terrifying restraint Sandro wore before making decisions that changed lives forever.For one endless heartbeat, neither of them spoke.Then Sandro bent slowly and picked up Claireās photograph from the floor with surprising care.

Chapter: Chapter 86Escape AttemptThe penthouse was eerily silent except for the distant hum of the city far below the towering windows. Elena lay awake in the massive bed, staring at the ceiling as the clock on the nightstand ticked closer to 3 AM. The proof of Sandro ordering her fatherās hit still burned behind her eyes, a vivid image that refused to fade no matter how hard she tried to push it away. The documents, the signatures, the cold efficiency of it all, it had shattered the last fragile illusion she had been clinging to. She couldnāt stay. Not like this. Not with the weight of that truth crushing her every time she looked at the man she loved.She waited until the guard shift change, the one she had memorized over the weeks of living in this gilded cage.Elena had spent the last eleven nights studying the rhythm of the penthouse like a prisoner mapping every crack in her cell. Every security rotation. Every elevator chime. Every camera that swept across the hallway before pausing for a fracti

Chapter: Chapter 85Fatherās Death ProofThe major syndicate loss from Lucaās suspected betrayal still echoed through the penthouse like a death knell that refused to fade into silence. Elena sat on the edge of the bed in the master suite, the silk sheets still rumpled from their passionate night of reaffirmation, staring at the tablet in her hands as another encrypted file arrived through a secure channel. The subject line was simple and ominous: āConfirmation ā Rossi Authorization ā Full Archive.ā When she opened it, the concrete evidence landed with devastating, soul-crushing force that left her gasping for air.Detailed records stretched back months, meticulously organized and irrefutable. Timestamps, encrypted communications, bank transfers, witness statements, and a signed authorization from Sandro himself. Her fatherās death wasnāt just a consequence of mounting debts or vague threats to the family. It was deliberate, calculated, and executed on Sandroās direct orders after discovering the full

Chapter: Chapter 84Lucaās MoveThe morning after their possessive night came too quickly, bringing with it the harsh light of reality that refused to let them linger in the fragile peace they had carved out. Elena woke slowly, her body deliciously sore from the hours of intense reaffirmation Sandro had given her. She was still tangled in his strong arms, her head resting on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. For a brief, precious moment, as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the heavy curtains, she allowed herself to believe they could face anything together. That their love, complicated and stained as it was, might be enough to weather the storms still raging around them. But the illusion shattered the moment she reached for her phone on the nightstand. Lucaās message was still there, a tempting shadow she had yet to delete or respond to. She quickly hid the notification, heart racing with a mix of guilt and fear, and slipped out of bed as quietly as she could to get

Chapter: Chapter 83ReaffirmationThe nausea had passed almost as quickly as it came, leaving Elena convinced it was nothing more than the lingering effects of extreme stress and physical exhaustion. A minor flu, perhaps brought on by the constant adrenaline crashes, sleepless nights, and emotional turmoil that had become her new normal. She pushed the pregnancy scare firmly to the back of her mind as she stood in the luxurious bathroom, splashing cold water on her face and staring at her reflection in the large mirror. Her eyes looked tired, shadowed with doubt and unspoken fears, but she forced herself to straighten her shoulders and take a deep breath. There was no time for terrifying what-ifs or spiraling possibilities. Not with Lucaās secret offer still burning a hole in her phone like a hidden bomb, not with Valentinaās threats hanging over them like a sword of Damocles, and not with the layered betrayals still threatening to unravel everything they had fought so hard to build together.Sandro wa
