Sophia never imagined her life would spiral into a waking nightmare. What began as strange phone calls and shadowy figures watching from the distance quickly turned into something far worse—being abducted by Matteo DeLuca, a man whose obsession ran deeper than love. Under his control, Sophia suffered in silence, enduring pain and humiliation she dares not speak of. When he finally lets her go, it isn’t freedom that greets her—but another captor.

Aleksandr Volkov, powerful, cold, and emotionally damaged, sees in Sophia a mirror of the woman he lost. Desperate to keep his daughter believing her mother is alive, he forces Sophia to take on her identity. Through manipulation, subtle control, and emotional coercion, Aleksandr begins to unravel Sophia’s reality—softening her resistance and luring her into the illusion of a perfect family.

Now, with her will slowly crumbling, Matteo must do the unthinkable: save the very woman he once destroyed. But is it redemption he’s after—or revenge? As dark secrets unravel and twisted games are played, Sophia must face a brutal truth: sometimes the greatest threats are the ones that wear a familiar face.

HUNTED BY DESIRE

The weight of her words lingered in the air, suffocating me. 


"Did you know? That you were pregnant?" I asked, but the voice that left my throat didn’t sound like mine. It was raw, weak, barely holding itself together. The question itself was stupid. Of course, she didn’t know. How could she? 


"No... if I did, I would have gotten rid of it sooner." 


Her words sliced through me like a serrated blade. I flinched, unable to control the pain that shot through my chest. Was this what heartbreak felt like? My lungs squeezed, like all the oxygen had been drained from the room. She had lost a baby—my baby—and she spoke of it like it was nothing. Like it didn’t mean a damn thing. 


I felt... shattered. There was no better word. Broken pieces of myself scattered everywhere, and I couldn't pick them up. And the worst part? She didn’t care. She didn’t even mourn.
