A standalone captive dark mafia romance novel by USA Today Bestselling Author Nikita Slater. THIS BOOK WAS PREVIOUSLY TITLED BOUND BY BLOOD. "If you kill me now, I will follow you in death as I would in life." Exiled from Russia for more than a decade with a bounty on his head, Boris Grekov must now go back to reclaim his throne. He wants the woman he's been pursuing at his side. Only problem is, she doesn't know she belongs to him yet. If he had a lifetime, he would spend it convincing her they were inseparable. Unfortunately, he's out of time and can think of only one way to get the woman he loves to go to Russia with him. Kidnap her. Born and raised an assassin, Laney must complete her job or face the Yakuza. But her Bratva target makes her life difficult, pursuing her, touching her, making her feel after a lifetime of emptiness. She will fight what she feels for him with every breath in her body because anything less than victory will result in a loss so great she will never recover.
