A fateful bond was forged in an orphanage fire a decade ago, when a young girl slipped her last piece of bread to a trapped boy. Years later, now a ruthless mafia overlord, Damon rescues Aria and locks her away, driven by obsessive longing to make up for their painful separation. Yet Aria is no helpless captive. Beneath her timid act lies a calculating, twisted mind; she deliberately lets herself be kidnapped, drawing the violent gang boss into her meticulously‑woven trap. It is a dangerous game of two equally deranged souls. Neither hunter nor prey, they are each other’s jailer, tangled in burning, obsessive affection, caught in a twisted ten‑year‑old fate.
