She ran from her wedding night, from a life that wanted to cage her, straight into his world, a world where power tastes like blood and every breath is a choice between fear and desire. Myra Kapoor thought she wanted freedom, but freedom doesn't ask for permission, and neither does fate. Rafael Alvarez doesn't see a girl; he sees a challenge, a fire that dares to burn in his presence. He ties her, interrogates her, threatens her, and shows her what men like him do to liars, and yet when her lips tremble, when her eyes glisten with unshed tears, he doesn't strike...not out of mercy, but curiosity. Curiosity for the girl who runs, terrified yet defiant, a girl who refuses to break even under his gaze. Every lie, every shiver, every whispered refusal becomes a thread binding her closer to him, a dangerous pull neither can resist. She is a runaway bride, he is a ruthless mafia heir, and together they collide in a world where control is power, obsession is intoxicating, and surrender... surrender could be deadly-and delicious. ______ 𝐑𝐚𝐟𝐚𝐞𝐥: "𝐓𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈'𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬."
