When he didn’t move, panic surged through her, and she screamed. His hand shot out, wrapping around her throat, his grip unyielding. A breathless gasp tore from her lips. "You can't run from me, Peach." His voice was silk and steel, lethal in its promise. "I own you." — Tessa had lost everything—her home, her wealth, her love. The man she once adored, Tamlin, had not only betrayed her but stripped her of everything she owned, tossing her aside like she meant nothing. She was Heartbroken, Weak and Shattered. But things were only going to get worse. Tamlin didn’t just ruin her—he sold her. As collateral to pay his debt. Now, she belonged to the devil himself—Vernon Carter. Cold. Dominant and Cruel. A man who didn’t know the meaning of mercy. But behind this cold facade is man who is wounded by heartbreak and swore never to give his heart out again. He thought he could break her, use her but he was wrong. Tessa shut the door to her heart and now it only wanted vengeance. She wanted Tamlin to suffer. And to do that, she needed power. Wealth. Someone more ruthless than Tamlin ever was. Vernon was the perfect pawn. She made up her mind. She would seduce him. Make him crave her. Make him hers on the terms that she would never fall for him but fate had other plans. What happens when Vernon discovers her true intentions, that he was just a pawn in her twisted games—and the game of love and revenge spirals into something far more dangerous?

Get the fvck out of my office. Call me only after you sign, or you’ll regret it.” --- I thought giving birth would be the happiest day of my life. Instead, it became the day my whole world shattered. While I was still weak and bleeding in that hospital bed, my husband walked in… not with flowers, not with comfort, but with a hard blow to my stitches. That devil set a trap far worse than our marriage itself. And no matter how much I hated him… a part of me still burned whenever he touched me. Was this love, madness, or the devil’s contract I could never escape?

Malam ini, aku merasakan suasana yang berbeda, Resah yang hinggap serupa ketakutan, Gelap ini menyambut seperti mantra, Menyerap rasa pada kegundahan yang aku rasakan. Di ujung malam ada suara seperti bisikan, Memanggilku yang meringkuk ketakutan, "Nadja...." Aku tetap diam, di dalam kamar yang kini terasa pengap. Udara tetiba terasa hilang, Aku semakin gemetaran. Ada yang datang! Seperti kilat yang menyambar kegelapan! Aku menjerit histeris! Menggapai apa yang bisa menggenggam ketakutanku! "Nadja, jangan takut. Ini aku yang datang menjemputmu" Kerjapan mataku seperti dihipnotis, Ketakutanku perlahan lenyap seperti bayangan yang ditelan gelap. Rupanya dia, di sana berdiri membelakangi rembulan. Dengan jubah hitamnya yang berkibar angkuh! Satu sosok yang memberiku kehidupan yang berbeda. Yang menenggelamkan aku dalam asmara yang terlarang. Cinta yang seharusnya kubuang. Namun, nyatanya tetap kupertahankan.
