Savage Bound: The Forbidden Claim

Cain drags Ivy into the dark, orders her stripped of everything—including her pride—and sinks his teeth into her neck. But the mark he leaves behind is not a death sentence. It is a claim. Sold by her own family to repay their debts, Ivy is now trapped in a contract with the empire’s most ruthless Regent. Cain wants to break her, control her blood, and use her hidden power—but every touch awakens a forbidden force neither of them can resist. Then Ivy discovers her mother may still be alive, and her jealous stepbrother Silas will kill to keep the truth buried. When Ivy’s power proves to be the only thing capable of stopping Cain’s deadly curse, she must choose: remain his captive and help him rule the empire—or unleash the bloodline that could destroy them both.
