She froze, breath caught, facing the storm in his delinquent brown eyes. He leaned over her, hands gripping the rail, boxing her in. The air was thick, too heavy to breathe. Her gaze locked on his—unwilling, yet unable, to look away. The closer he leaned, the harder her heart pounded. She bit her lip, nerves twitching. No matter how far she ran, he always found her. “Why do you keep chasing me?” she asked, barely above a whisper. Her voice trembled, as if volume might shatter her. He didn’t answer. Silence roared between them. His stare—cold, unreadable—never left her face. “Do you like me?” she pressed, ignoring the disinterest in his eyes. She needed something. He gave a soft tut, then brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, twirling it lazily. The touch was light, but his closeness made her pulse race. “‘Like’ is a bit heavy, Tinkerbell,” he murmured, voice low and indifferent. The nickname slipped out like smoke—mocking, yet oddly tender. He leaned in, close enough for her to feel his heat. Close enough to unravel her. But his eyes stayed dark. Empty. She swallowed hard, unsure what hid behind them. “It’s strange,” he added, voice softer now. “But you’re the first woman I’ve ever aknowledged as a lady, Snow White.” — She was the good girl. Quiet. Overlooked. Her life, a shadow. No warmth. No safety. For a moment, she thought she’d found love—someone who saw her. Someone worth clinging to. But he broke her. When he left, he took her love—and her self-worth. She hated herself after that. Then she started to rebuild. And that’s when Zachary Gonzalez appeared. Mysterious. Magnetic. Dangerous. Everything she shouldn’t want.

Aliyah Haven was only 17 when her struggling family made the difficult decision to give her away to Pedro Perez, a cold and calculating billionaire heir. This transaction was disguised as a marriage, but it was filled with underlying motives. In exchange for money and a better future, her family sacrificed her innocence. Pedro was in need of a male heir to secure his dying father's empire, something his barren wife could not provide. Aliyah became the perfect pawn in his plan. After giving birth to a son, Andre, she was cast aside — her baby taken, her life shattered. Left to rot while Pedro returned to his wife, she swore revenge. Ten years later, Aliyah returns as a new woman — refined, brilliant, and wealthy in her own right. She’s no longer the naive girl who was bought. She's here to burn the empire Pedro built — from his business to his heart. What Pedro doesn't know is that the woman he’s falling for is the same girl he once destroyed. And when the truth explodes, everything he built starts to crumble — from media scandals to corporate collapse, to a vicious divorce from his manipulative wife. But love, twisted and torn as it may be, isn't done with them yet.

VOLUME 1 TRILOGIA ILHA DO CORVO — Eu não amo você. — murmurei. Ele deixou seu vinho de lado e se levantou, devagar ele diminuiu a distância entre nós, e com a ponta dos dedos tocou meu queixo, seu olhar vagou para minha boca e depois permaneceu em meus olhos. — Eu também não a amo princesa, e nem pretendo.
