Brutal Captivity: Book One- Saints of the Sinners series

CALLISTO

My entire life has been curated. Perfect clothes. Perfect body. Perfect manners. The perfect disappointment.

When I'm taken by a crew of art thieves in the middle of a robbery, I already know how the story ends. My family won't pay a dime to get me back. My father barely remembers he has a son even when I'm standing right in front of him.

The problem isn't dying. It's realizing no one will miss me when I do.

Then there's Leo. My captor is crude, infuriating, and entirely too comfortable calling me princess. He treats me like a liability, but the more I look at him, the more I realize that art isn't just paintings and sculptures... it's people. Our time together is winding down like a countdown on a bomb, but the closer we get to the final explosion, the more I realize I don't want to escape.

I want to burn with him.

The job was supposed to be simple. Steal the art. Leave.

Instead, I end up with a hostage who talks too much, complains about fast food, and manages to insult my intelligence while begging for his life. Callisto Santos is everything I hate. Rich. Spoiled. Beautiful. A fragile prince who belongs in a gallery, not locked in my spare bedroom.

So why can't I stop pushing him?

The more I peel back his layers, the more I realize he's entirely too good for this rotten world. My crew thinks we're just waiting on a ransom check, but the stakes just changed. He wants to paint the world, and I've spent my whole life wanting to destroy it. To keep him alive, I will have to betray everyone who has ever cared for me.

I will burn it all down... for him.
