Captive of the Heart

Born in a casino and orphaned young, Daian forged a heart of steel in the ruthless underworld. For years, she bided her time, nurturing a singular obsession: revenge against the Chan family, Thailand's untouchable criminal dynasty. At adulthood’s threshold, she ventures alone into their den.



Fate gifted her beauty, and she wields it like a blade. At a solemn funeral in a sacred temple, she deliberately catches the eye of Angwei, the Chan family's cold-blooded heir. Winning his favor is merely a step toward her endgame.



In a moment of deep intimacy, his voice rumbles against her ear: "Your body belongs only to me. If you ever betray me, I will kill you myself." Her body stiffens for half a heartbeat.



Later, when the time comes to leave him, she uses the gun assembly skills he taught her. Her aim is steady, the barrel pointed at his heart – one second faster than him. Angwei grabs her hand, forcing the gun deeper against his chest. An inscrutable smile touches his eyes. "Good."



They stand locked in a silent duel, all former tenderness vanished. Finally, he demands, voice thick with gravel, "Tell me the truth. Did you ever love me?" She stares into the fierce cruelty shadowing his face – a cruelty tinged with disappointment. She refuses to answer. Her fingers tremble.

He wrenches the barrel from her grip, swinging it to aim at another man. His obsidian eyes are fathomless, his voice lethally soft: "Then let me ask differently. Did you sleep with him?"



Loving you... was walking willingly into your own trap.
