Dominic Torrance, a thirty-six-year-old CEO radiating ambition, wages a constant war against the shadows of his past and a darker self that periodically consumes him. Despite years of therapy, he cannot tame this chilling alter ego, a man defined by ice-cold calculation and suffocating possessiveness.
Samantha Sylus, twenty-five and disillusioned by love, navigates life as a telemarketing attendant. Repeated betrayals have driven her to seek solace in the numbness of alcohol and the distraction of relentless work.
Their worlds collide at a Dark Romance-themed party. There, Dominic's penetrating blue gaze locks onto Samantha. Consumed by his darkest impulses, he commits an unthinkable act: kidnapping her. For one harrowing week, she is his captive, imprisoned within his luxurious apartment.
Upon her release, the real game begins—a high-stakes cat-and-mouse chase. Can this isolated, fractured man allow his heart to thaw for the vulnerable Samantha? And does Samantha possess the strength to reach the tormented soul beneath the CEO's ruthless facade?
In a dance of trauma and desperate longing, one question remains: is love potent enough to mend two souls shattered beyond recognition?
