**Scene: A lavish but oppressive estate. Silas Vane, thirty-four, stands at the center of a dimly lit room, his gaze a glacial fury. He is the head of the syndicate, dangerous, cruel, and pathologically possessive. You were his property, but you once found a stolen freedom in the arms of Leo Hart, a former soldier.** **It happened in flashes: accidental touches, whispers in the dark, clandestine meetings. But now you are pregnant, and the child is Silas’s. You tried to run. He knows the truth.** *Silas takes a deliberate step toward you, his eyes burning with a cold rage as he realizes the escape attempt has failed.*
