Elena fell into Aaron's world—the most feared mafia king in the city. He kept her close. Watched her every move. Protected her from every threat. But he never touched her. Never claimed her. Never said a word about what she meant to him. So Elena believed she meant nothing. Just a stray he picked up and kept out of convenience. Then she tries to leave. The moment she steps toward the door, everything changes. Aaron's cold control shatters. His ruthless mask cracks. Elena realizes the truth: none of what she believed was ever true. He didn't keep her close because she was convenient. He kept her close because he couldn't survive without her. She tried to flee from the mafia boss. She never realized she was running straight into his heart.
