Chains Of Desire (Book1): The Devil's Captive

By James Khalifa

Hatred and desire wear the same mask in the dark.

Celine's life ended the day her parents were murdered in front of her.

Kidnapped by a crime lord and dragged to a palace of shadows, she becomes a prisoner with no hope of escape. But when his son walks into the room, Celine realizes hell has a new face.
Christopher is cold, brutal, and utterly unpredictable. He doesn't see her as a victim. He sees her as a toy.He slaps her until her mouth bleeds. He tears her clothes and calls her a whore.
He tells her she will never leave. Not as a free woman. Only as a corpse.

Celine swears she will hate him forever.
She swears she will make him pay for what his family did.

But hatred lives next to something darker. When Christopher whispers against her neck. When his hands leave bruises that feel like fire. When he looks at her like she's the only thing keeping him from burning the world down.
