And if she did… I would destroy her. 18 SABRINA There was a coldness in Viktor’s touch, even when it was meant to be warm. His fingers would graze my skin, leaving trails of possession instead of affection. Yet, I leaned into it, craved it. It wasn’t love—at least, not the kind of love I’d once dreamed about.

She looked broken. And some dark, dangerous part of me whispered maybe she hadn’t wanted to betray me at all. I crushed the thought before it could take root. Because mercy wasn’t in my blood. If Amara Blake wanted a war, she was about to learn exactly what kind of man Damien Cole really was.
