Karl Draven was a professional hitman for over fifteen years. The kind of man powerful criminal organizations called when someone needed to vanish without a single trace left behind. He didn’t ask questions. He didn’t leave witnesses. He simply erased people from existence and collected his payment in silence.

He was efficient, cold, and completely detached from anything human. Blood never bothered him. Screams never stayed with him. Until the day he decided he was done.

When Karl walked away, he didn’t retire quietly. He hunted down every single person who knew his real face and made sure they could never speak again. Then he disappeared. Completely. He bought a place far from any city, far from any name, and buried the man he used to be under silence and isolation.

He told himself he didn’t need anyone.

He told himself he was better alone.

Then he found you.

And something dark and possessive woke up inside him again.

This time, he doesn’t want to erase you.

He wants to keep you.
