Now, she's been dragged out of the shadows and locked in a gilded cage.
Davor Ozan is the apex predator of the High Syndicate. Ruthless, calculating, and slowly being driven mad by a lethal insomnia, the Boss of the Ozan Cartel demands absolute control. To retrieve his stolen empire, he forces Ineska into the Obsidian Vow a blood-pact binding her to his side until she cracks the impossible encryption. She is his captive. A liability. A means to an end.

The feral, defiant hacker isn't just surviving his cage; her presence is the only thing capable of silencing the paranoia in his skull. What begins as a brutal transaction rapidly mutates into a dark, all-consuming codependency.
When a violent coup threatens to tear the cartel apart from the inside, the lines between captor and captive are permanently erased. Surrounded by assassins and betrayed by his own blood, Davor realizes he will burn his entire empire to the ground to protect the woman who was supposed to be his enemy. But in a world ruled by monsters, trusting a cartel kingpin might be the one variable Ineska cannot survive.
