Matteo Bartelli ruined my life the second he stepped into it—dragging me into his world of secrets, betrayal, and violence. I thought the worst that could happen to me was sticking with a shitty job and meager pay until I met him.
Ruthless, mafia billionaire with an ego through the roof, he made an offer I wasn’t allowed to refuse. My father’s well-being or a life of being under his thumb, doing his every bid.
So when I signed my freedom over to him, I vowed that I would take revenge.
Until he touched me—his hands on my skin and his filthy words in my ear, breaking me down faster than I could rebuild myself. Until my body started betraying me, craving him when I should’ve been clawing my way free.
So I ran away, knowing he’d never let me go without a fight.
But no matter how far I run,I know he’ll find me.
