Anatomy of Fear

RUBY

I dragged a dying Bratva king into an underground bunker and sealed the door behind us.
Now there is nowhere to run.
Andrei is wounded, paranoid, furious, and somehow even more dangerous without his empire surrounding him. Steel walls trap us together while his enemies tear apart everything aboveground, leaving me alone with the possessive bastard whose hands make fear taste disturbingly close to hunger.
Saving his life should have settled my debt.
Instead, I’m becoming addicted to the darkness between us.
Then his enemies drag me out of Andrei ’s protection and discover I’m no longer the helpless woman who was sold in that room.
Loving a monster has taught me exactly how to become one.

ANDREI

Two bullets took my throne.
Ruby kept them from taking my life.
I wake inside my bunker stripped of power, surrounded by enemies, and dependent on the one woman capable of making me lose what remains of my control. She challenges every order. Pushes every boundary. Makes submission feel like something I need to earn with my hands wrapped around her.
Then she disappears from my protection.
The men responsible have made their final mistake.
I have survived bullets, betrayal, and the collapse of my empire. None of it compares to the violence Ruby’s absence unleashes in me.
I’m taking my woman back.
The city can choke on the bodies it costs me.
