His to
Lock Away

I opened the wrong safe. Then I called my father's best friend.

He came. He took my phone. He took my keys. And after two years of walking out of every room I walked into, Anton Vedenin stopped pretending he didn't want to keep me too.

A Forbidden Bratva Romance · S. R. Kade

Excerpt

Nine hundred dollars seemed a very good emergency fee.

Chapter One

Mara

Anton Vedenin's name is inside a safe I have just spent an hour opening.

The book is bound in dark red cloth and lies on the bottom shelf, where Dmitri Saran told me there would be nothing worth keeping. I know that hard slant of black letters. Anton signed my father's birthday card last year; while everyone else wrote something embarrassing about turning fifty-three, he just put his name. Dad kept the card on the mantel for three months.

I shift my weight on the concrete floor. Nine hundred dollars seemed a very good emergency fee an hour ago.

Behind me, Dmitri's phone rings.

StandaloneA complete 20,000-word novella. No cliffhanger.
Dual POVMara and Anton, in first person.
SpicyFive explicit scenes. HEA guaranteed.

For adults 18+. His to Lock Away is dark romance: captivity, coercive control, a substantial age gap and power imbalance, threats with guns, torture, murder, dubious consent and explicit sex. Both leads are adults, twenty-six and forty-seven.
