With My Tears

"I didn't just save your sister’s life, Elara. I bought yours. And I’m a man who expects a return on his investment." Elara Vance was never supposed to play with fire. But with her sister’s life fading and the doctors offering nothing but apologies, she turns to the only legacy her family left behind: a forbidden ritual to summon the Duke of the Seventh Circle. She expected a monster. She didn't expect Vane. Towering, lethal, and devastatingly handsome in a tailored black suit, Vane looks more like a cold-blooded CEO than a creature of legend. His eyes are like shards of grey ice, and he looks at Elara not with mercy, but with a hunger that has been brewing for centuries. He offers her a deal she can’t refuse: her sister’s health in exchange for Elara’s total, unconditional submission. The contract is simple. Elara belongs to him. She will live in his shadows, answer to his name, and follow the rules of a world where humans are nothing but prey. But as Elara is pulled into Vane’s opulent, dangerous life, she discovers that her billionaire captor is hiding a dark truth. He didn't just happen to hear her call he has been orchestrating her downfall from the start. Now, trapped in a gilded cage with a man who is as beautiful as he is brutal, Elara must decide: will she find the loophole to break the contract, or will she lose herself to the dark desire of the demon who claims to own her heart?
