He was the Ace in London's underworld—cold, calculating, untouched by desire. And as the trusted right hand of a drug lord, he lived in silence, served without question, and felt nothing. Until her.

She was the untouchable wife of the man he was ordered to destroy. A flicker of warmth in a world built on blood. A light he could never claim, never even reach. He told himself it was a strategy. Duty. But the truth was crueler.

He watched her like a secret. Needed nothing—except to see her smile. To know she was still breathing. To feel something, anything, through the frost inside him.

He doesn't understand love. Doesn't crave touch. But her—she consumes him.

Every movement she makes is a trigger he can't disarm. Every breath she takes pulls him deeper into a sickness he refuses to name. He tells himself he's protecting her. That it's harmless.

He lies.

Because this isn't love. It's obsession—slow, savage, and all-consuming. A hunger buried in skin that never learned how to burn. And when the line between loyalty and guilt finally snaps, blood will pay for every stolen moment.

There was never going to be a happy ending.

She was the witch in his story. The one who cursed the beast then locked herself in his castle and threw away the key.

This book is a prequel to the Strictly Strangers Duet.

It's a dark Mafia/Stalker romance. So, make sure to check your triggers.
