Camila pensait n’avoir plus rien à perdre. Sans repères, elle accepte un étrange entretien dans une maison aussi élégante qu’inquiétante. Une offre lui est faite ,déroutante, limite immorale. Mais ce n’est rien comparé à ce qui l’attend : Seth, le neveu de sa future employeuse. Un homme énigmatique, fascinant… et dangereusement inaccessible. Ce qui naît entre eux n’a rien d’ordinaire. C’est un jeu de regards, de silences lourds, de tentations interdites. Une histoire d'amour aussi troublante que toxique, où désir et pouvoir s’emmêlent, et où fuir devient aussi difficile que rester. C’est une collision. Une spirale. Un poison lent. Un lien qu’aucun des deux ne comprend, mais qu’ils ne peuvent rompre. Entre eux, ce n’est pas une passion. C’est une obsession. “Bound to you” n’est pas une romance douce. C’est un amour cruel, imprévisible, magnifique dans sa chute. Et si aimer… c’était perdre la tête ?

Kael was raised on one unshakable belief: fated mates were a weakness. Stories of alphas losing their minds, their control, and eventually their lives over mates had been passed down like cautionary tales. His great-grandfather had been one of them, brought to ruin by the unbearable loss of his mate. Kael’s grandfather had made sure that never happened again, enforcing strict laws which prioritized strength over sentiment. The pack thrived under that discipline. No one bonded. No one lost themselves. Kael believed in those laws. He wanted to believe. But wanting and doing weren’t exactly the same thing. Now, standing face to face with his fated mate, he was at a crossroads. Accepting them could fracture everything he was taught to protect. Rejecting them might break something in him that he would never be able to fix. Either way, the consequences were inevitable and permanent. Max never asked for much out of life.

“Do I want a taste?” his voice deeper than he had ever spoken. His eyes pinned on me like I was the only thing that fascinated him. “What do I do?” I thought to myself as he moved closer to me, I wanted to run away, to resist him but I was pinned to the wall by him. “Gosh I hate this man so much” his scent, his body, his beautiful green eyes, he was driving me crazy.

My mother fell critically ill and was rushed to the hospital. Desperate, I knelt before my fiancé—the department's chief surgeon—and begged him to take charge of her operation. But outside the ICU, he was carefully tending to a scraped knee. Lucy Wendell's scraped knee, to be exact. Just as I was drowning in hopelessness, Cameron Mitchell—the hospital director and my childhood friend—pushed open the operating room doors and handed me a marriage proposal. "Marry me, and I'll personally perform your mother's surgery." With trembling hands, I signed my name, clinging to the last shred of hope that she could be saved. But she never made it through that stormy night. Cameron handled all the funeral arrangements himself, and our wedding proceeded as scheduled. Seven years later, in the hushed silence of the hospital archives, I overheard Cameron speaking with the deputy director. "Cameron, why did you transfer your mother-in-law's organ to Lucy's mother during that surgery? Weren't you afraid of getting caught?" "I owed Lucy," he replied. "If I hadn't hesitated back then, Lucy never would've chosen medical aid work in Africa… and her mother wouldn't have fallen ill from the grief."
