When Rhian unknowingly saves a stranger's life through a bone marrow donation, she has no idea she's tethered herself to him forever. For years, she moves through life, unaware that someone watches her every step-a man whose blood now pulses with hers. Peter should have let go, should have left his gratitude in the past, but the moment he learns her name, his obsession takes root. He watches from the shadows, learning everything about the woman who gave him back his life. Her laughter becomes his music, her pain his agony, and he will stop at nothing to make her his-even if it means crossing every line, following her across countries, cities, and continents. But love this intense burns, and as Rhian begins to notice the stranger lurking on the edges of her world, she is torn between terror and an inexplicable connection. Peter doesn't want her fear-he wants her heart, her soul, her very essence. And he won't rest until she sees the truth: that they were meant to be together, bound by blood, fate, and something far darker than love.

Naomi "Ni" Johnson is an ordinary girl living in a small town. She has dreams of moving to the city and pursuing her passion for art. However, her life takes an unexpected and terrifying turn when she's kidnapped one evening by a mysterious and dangerous man named Adrian Blackwood. Adrian, a brooding and powerful figure in the criminal underworld, has been watching Ni for weeks. At first, his reasons for kidnapping her seem cold and calculated-he believes she's the key to settling a vendetta with her estranged family, who betrayed him years ago. Ni's family, once involved in shady dealings, has tried to stay out of Adrian's reach, but now he has found a way to get his revenge: by taking their daughter. In Adrian's secluded mansion, surrounded by forests and an icy lake, Ni is trapped. She tries to escape multiple times, but each time Adrian catches her, though he never harms her. Instead, he shows unexpected softness, an emotion she doesn't expect from a criminal like him. Ni soon learns that Adrian's life is far more complicated than it appears on the surface. As time passes, the tension between them grows. Adrian is torn-his plans of revenge are slipping away, replaced by a desire to protect Ni, to keep her close for reasons he cannot admit to himself. Meanwhile, Ni finds herself drawn to Adrian's intensity, his tortured past, and the flickers of vulnerability he shows only around her. She fights her feelings, determined not to fall for the man who has taken her freedom. But slowly, her fear turns to understanding, and understanding turns to love. Yet, danger lurks as Adrian's enemies close in. Ni must decide if she can truly trust Adrian or if their love is doomed from the start. Together, they'll have to face the ghosts of Adrian's past, and Ni will need to confront her own demons if they are to survive-and find happiness in the darkness.
