Introduction
To save her seriously ill daughter, single mother Layla has no choice but to seek help from the city’s powerful and enigmatic ruler, Zaley Raines—the only compatible bone marrow donor. Cold, dangerous, and commanding, he is drawn to Layla by a strange sense of familiarity. However, she dares not reveal the truth: Zaley is actually her long-lost first love, Leon, and the biological father of her child, though he no longer remembers her. Haunted by past trauma and misunderstandings, Layla has kept her distance, but Zaley’s instincts pull him irresistibly closer. When the truth of their connection comes to light, he begins unraveling the fragments of his tampered memories, determined to reclaim the woman he once loved and the daughter they never knew. Bound by fate and tangled in secrets, Layla finds herself falling once again for the man who once promised to rescue her from despair. But this time, Zaley wants more than just her heart—he wants her to remain in his world forever. As enemies close in and hidden truths emerge, they become each other’s salvation in a reunion written by destiny.
And when he finally remembers?
He won’t beg. He won’t fall. He’ll rise.
To reclaim her.
To destroy those who wronged her.
To conquer every part of the woman he once forgot how to love.

An ordinary man with a bright future ahead.
But a single betrayal was enough to shatter everything.
Framed by the woman he loved and his own brother, he was sentenced and thrown into the worst place imaginable: a prison where rules don’t exist—and danger has a name, a face… and hungry eyes.
Now, he shares a cell with the most feared man in the entire facility.
Dominant. Intense. Obsessive.
And he wants him.
Not out of love.
Not out of mercy.

In a world with no laws, no escape, and no one to save him, he becomes the wolf’s bunny—submissive to his touch, a prisoner of pleasure… and completely unable to resist.
Because sometimes, it’s the monster who knows exactly how to make you feel alive.
