I thought escaping him would save me.
It didn’t.
Because no matter how far I run, Mikhail finds me. And when he does, the world burns for it. Bodies fall. Blood spills. And I’m dragged right back into the place I tried to flee…
his side.
He tells me I belong to him.
He proves it in ways I can’t forget.
Every line I swore I’d never cross… I cross for him. Every piece of myself I tried to protect… I hand over willingly. He puts a weapon in my hands, forces me to choose, and I realize something horrifying—
I’m not the same girl anymore.
I’m becoming what he is.
What he made me.
And when his enemies come for me, I don’t just fear them—
I want them dead.
Because Mikhail isn’t the only monster in this war now.
MIKHAIL
They took what’s mine.
That was their first mistake.
Mila was never meant to leave my world, and the moment they touched her, they signed their death sentence. I will hunt every man involved, tear apart their empire, and leave nothing behind but blood and ash.
This isn’t business anymore.
This is war.
She was supposed to be a weakness. A liability. Something I could control.
Instead, she’s the only thing that makes me lose control.
And I don’t care.
Let them call me reckless. Let them call me obsessed. I’ll burn this entire city to the ground if that’s what it takes to get her back.
Because she doesn’t get to run.
She doesn’t get to leave.
Mila Draslov belongs to me.
And this time, I’m not letting her forget it.
