Calen was a benchwarmer on the university swim team, someone who never actually competed. The captain, Karl, was everything he wasn’t, a campus golden boy. Three records broken. A new girlfriend every other week. One night, Calen realized he’d left something behind and went back to the locker room. That was when he heard it. Ragged breathing. Strained, barely held back. And beneath it… the slow, awful sound of metal bending under pressure. He pushed the door open. Karl stood with his back to him. His bare muscles writhed beneath his skin, moving wrong, his spine standing out in sharp ridges. His fingers were dug deep into the steel locker, nails tearing through metal, leaving long, brutal gouges. The air was thick with the smell of blood… and something wild. Predatory. Karl snapped around. His eyes burned gold in the dark. Blood stained the corner of his mouth, and when he bared his teeth, the canines were far too long. Far too sharp. He ran. He barely took two steps before something crashed into him from behind, slamming him to the floor. Karl’s weight pinned him down, his body radiating heat… too hot, almost painful. A low voice brushed his ear. “You saw something you weren’t meant to see.” “I won’t say anything….” Karl lowered his head, his nose grazing his neck as he inhaled slowly, deeply. “…You smell fucking irresistible.”

I was supposed to expose the Bratva monster's scandal, but instead, I became his obsession. I'm Irina, a librarian determined never to marry so I could care for my grandmother, who suffers from dementia—my only relative and my reason for living. He was Miron Pavlov, the blood-stained leader of the Bratva. He entered my life, but I couldn't fix it. He was here to take control, to make me his contract mistress turned legal wife. I tried to resist, but he was relentless, ruthlessly possessive. His hazel eyes undressed me, dragging me into his cruel world, making me question everything. So I ran when I discovered I was pregnant, unwilling to raise my child in his company. But Miron didn't care about the rules of his family, his cartel, his world. He pursued me, he desired me. Would his dark love change me? Or would she choose an ordinary man who would be much better at raising her child?

Isang napakalaking syudad na hinati sa dalawa. Dalawang malaking pagkakaiba kung saan may malaking pader na naghahati dito upang paghiwalayin ang magkaibang lugar sa iisang syudad. City A o tinatawag bilang 'Ordinary City'. Dito matatagpuan ang ordinaryong mga tao kung saan walang krimen na nagaganap. Mga inosente ang mga naninirahan at walang kaalaman tungkol sa kaharasan. Napaka-organisado ng kanilang pamamahala. City B o tinatawag na 'Mort Ville' na ibig sabihin ay Dead City. Mga kriminal ang naninirahan at legal ang paggawa ng krimen lalo na ang pagpatay. Hindi mo malalaman ang tunay na nakapaloob dito kung hindi ka makakaranas na tumapak dito. Think first before you step your feet inside the Mort Ville. Baka pagsisihan mo lang.HINDI KA MAKAKAWALA. WALANG MAKAKATAKAS. "Ms. Zaylee Yvette Jordin. You are now part of our city, Mort Ville. Congratulations."

The year was 1934; I was twenty-two years old. I never thought of myself as anything special. I was barely making it through the Great Depression. There were many days I lived off of scraps. I was the king of odd jobs, just enough to get by. I had done it all, from being a field hand to a miner. It all changed one night when I stumbled across a traveling circus, Cirque du Lune. I had never seen such a sight. Instead of the usual menagerie, this circus was overrun with wolves. There was one performer who caught my eye; it was as if an angel had descended from heaven on a silk ribbon.
