Je m’appelle Amanda Hayes, 24 ans, et ma vie a basculé le jour où j’ai signé ce contrat. Tout a commencé par un stage chez Black Industries, l’entreprise la plus prestigieuse de Londres. J’étais fière, naïve, convaincue que c’était ma chance. Mais le premier jour, j’ai entendu une conversation que je n’aurais jamais dû surprendre : des noms, des chiffres, des menaces, des mots comme « cartel », « livraison », « accident propre ». J’ai voulu m’enfuir, mais Cameron Black le PDG, 32 ans, 1m93 de glace et de danger m’a coincée dans son bureau du 67e étage. Il savait que j’avais tout entendu. Il m’a tendu deux contrats : un NDA blindé, et un second… qui me liait à lui, corps et âme, 24h/24. Obéissance totale. Disponibilité immédiate. En échange, il effaçait le risque que je représente. Refuser ? Un « accident » pour moi, et peut-être pour ma famille. J’ai signé, les mains tremblantes, parce que j’avais peur. Parce que je n’avais pas le choix. Depuis, je vis dans une cage dorée qu’il appelle « protection ». Un appartement luxueux qu’il m’a imposé, une garde-robe qu’il a choisie, une surveillance constante. Je sais qu’il est un chef mafieux. Et pourtant, quand il me touche, quand il me protège avec une possessivité qui me terrifie et m’enflamme, je ne sais plus où est la limite entre la peur et le désir. Il dit que je suis en danger à cause de secrets que je ne comprends pas encore. Mais chaque jour, je sens que je m’enfonce plus profondément dans son monde sombre, dans ses bras qui me serrent trop fort, dans ce contrat qui n’est plus seulement sur le papier.

I woke up in the past, on the eve of being traded by my family to that controlling mafia Don. Last life, his suffocating “love” and rigid rules strangled me to death.
