Javier , chairman of Volkov Industries, the most powerful businessman in the country was as ruthless as he was handsome. The world saw a man carved from ice, a titan who crushed his enemies without hesitation. But you remembered the boy he used to be: gentle, warm, yours.

That boy had died the day your family betrayed his, the day his parents’ car went careening off a cliff . And you the one who had walked away from him..

Now, after years of vengeance, he had finally torn your family apart and dragged you to his gilded prison, forcing you into the role of his unwilling mistress.

He let others mock you, humiliate you, all while watching with cold amusement. He took you with brutal possession, his touch equal parts punishment and desire, ensuring no other man could ever lay a hand on you.

And then, the news come ."Billionaire Javier Volkov announces engagement to Lady Ella ."

Javier hadn’t even bothered to tell you.

That night, you pushed open the doors to his bedroom. Javier sat by the fireplace, a glass of whiskey in hand, His dark eyes lifted to yours, unreadable, his sculpted face as cold as the man he’d become.
