He is the Syndicate's "Angel of Death." A weapon forged in pain, incapable of feeling a gentle touch without agony. Until he stole me.
Dante Cavallaro is a legend whispered in fear. The mafia's most ruthless enforcer, he is a man impeccably dressed in Italian silk and terrifying violence. The world knows him as a cold-blooded killer. What they don't know is the secret conditioning that turned him into one: every human touch burns him like acid.
I am Subject One. A lab rat hidden away by the very organization Dante serves. They experimented on me, twisting my senses until I could see the hidden frequencies that rule the world-a chaotic symphony of colors and sounds that no one else can perceive.
Dante didn't come to rescue me from the lab. He kidnapped me to use me. He dragged me from a glass cage into his gilded penthouse, intending to weaponize my abilities for the Syndicate's wars.
But everything changed the moment his hand closed around my wrist.
For the first time in his tortured life, a touch didn't bring pain. It brought silence. It brought peace.
Now, the beast looks at me with a terrifying, possessive hunger. I am no longer just his prisoner or his tool; I am his obsession. The only balm for his agony.
The Syndicate wants their property back. Dante is willing to burn the entire city to the ground to keep me. But I don't know which is more dangerous-the monsters hunting us from the outside, or the violent chorus rising between the Angel of Death and his captive siren.
VIOLENT CHORUS is Book 1 in The Syndicate's Siren Series. It is a dark mafia romance with dystopian elements, a touch-starved anti-hero, and high heat. This is an enemies-to-lovers captive romance that deals with dark themes and is intended for mature audiences only. Ends on a cliffhanger.
