Christian Alastor was a monster long before prison made him worse. Cold, ruthless, and terrifyingly powerful, Christian spent his entire life believing he was incapable of love—until Y/N came along with her sunshine smiles, stubborn heart, and complete refusal to fear him. She became the only softness he allowed himself, the one person capable of making a monster feel human. Then Christian was ripped away from her for five years. Now he’s free. Harder. Meaner. More dangerous than ever. Everyone expects him to reclaim his empire and destroy the people responsible for putting him behind bars. But Christian only wants one thing. His girl. Five years ago, he pushed Y/N away because he thought she deserved a life without him. Now he’ll grovel, bleed, beg, or burn the entire fucking world down before he makes that mistake again. Because prison taught Christian Alastor many things. How to stop loving her wasn’t one of them.
