Zoe Bloom Gif

She was nothing more than a burden—until they sold her. Jade’s life was already a cage of cruelty. Orphaned, mistreated, and forced into servitude by the only family she had left, she existed rather than lived. But on the night they dragged her from the attic and handed her over like property, she realized the true depth of their betrayal. Now, Jade finds herself in the terrifying clutches of Alpha Ragnar—ruthless, cold, and dangerously powerful. With dangerous eyes and a voice that commands submission, Ragnar doesn’t offer freedom or kindness. Only rules. And she’s expected to obey. But Jade is no ordinary omega. Beneath her quiet suffering, she’ll discover a power she never knew she possessed—one that refuses to be caged. And as fate would have it, Alpha Ragnar is her fated mate. To him, she’s just a mistake, a plaything. An object to be tossed aside. To her, she doesn’t want to belong to him. She wants freedom. Yet his touch—every brush of his skin—ignites something fierce inside her that she doesn’t want to admit. The mate bond is undeniable. With enemies closer than allies and danger more common than comfort, can love bloom in the midst of control and chaos? Or will breaking free from him be the only way to find the happily ever after she deserves?

“He pressed me to the wall with one hand tight around my throat, the other sliding beneath the thin silk clinging to my skin. I should’ve been begging for help. Instead, my knees went weak when he leaned in, his mouth hot against my ear. ‘Does it hurt, darling?’ he whispered. I shook my head, even as his fingers left bruises. ‘Good. I like it when you take it.’ God, I hated him. God, I wanted him to never let go.” A DARK, EROTIC TALE OF OBSESSION, HUMILIATION, AND HUNGER. They called him the Devil, a sadist with a crooked smile and hands built for breaking men. In the underworld’s most perverse auction, Luca Ruelle is nothing but trembling prey, sold for a price no soul should fetch. Silk-wrapped, bare, choking on shame and smoke, he should be praying for rescue. But Kain Astor doesn’t rescue. He claims, corrupts, and devours. He teaches Luca how it feels to be owned. How pain can bloom where fear lives. How pleasure is just another kind of cruelty. Every command is a dare, every punishment a promise. Under Kain’s hands, Luca learns the exquisite agony of surrender, and the terror of how badly he needs it. He should be fighting for his life. Instead, he’s sinking to his knees, eyes glazed, lips parted, whispering the one word that seals his fate— “Please.”
