The highest bidder turned out to be my stepbrother

“You know that promise you owe me?” I whisper into the phone, praying my voice doesn’t shake.
His reply comes low and lethal.
“Yes, little fairy.”
I squeeze my eyes shut.
“Then keep it. Don’t come looking for me, Fabian. Please.”
Silence.
Then—
“That only happens when I’m dead.” His voice darkens. “Run if you want to, little fairy. But when I find you—and I will—you’ll regret ever leaving.”

For eight years, Indigo has lived by one rule:
Survive.
No matter the cost.
She built a quiet life for herself and her daughter far away from the violence she escaped. Far away from the powerful family that destroyed her life.
And far away from Fabian Trevanti.
Her estranged stepbrother.
But when Indigo is dragged into an underground auction meant for dangerous men, Fabian is the one who finds her.
And saves her.
Except Fabian has never done anything out of mercy.
Cold. obsessive, and terrifyingly powerful, he pulls Indigo back into his world with one condition:
She belongs to him now.
The more Indigo fights him, the worse it gets, because Fabian has never handled obsession well, and he becomes obsessed with her all over again.
But Indigo is hiding something.
Something capable of destroying them both.
Because the little girl Fabian is beginning to love might not just be hers.
And when old enemies crawl out of the dark, Indigo is forced into an impossible choice:
Marry another man to keep Fabian alive…
Or tell Fabian the truth and risk burning his entire world to the ground.
Because loving Fabian Trevanti was always dangerous.
But being loved by him?
That might be the thing that finally destroys her.
