Dark and taboo. Please read the TWs in the Forewarning. This is not a romance but a 'tail' of twisted trauma.
Ania Zaitseva, known in the hacking world as The White Rabbit, has always been one step ahead of her enemies—until now. When a job goes wrong, she unknowingly breaches the security system of Adrik Ilyin, the most feared Bratva boss in the underworld. By the time she realises her mistake, it’s too late. The Bratva is already hunting her, and for the first time, the rabbit is running for her life.
Adrik Ilyin is a monster in human form—ruthless, calculating, and merciless. The breach of his system is a personal insult, and he won’t stop until he finds the hacker responsible. When he captures Ania, he doesn’t kill her. Instead, he decides to keep her, not just for her skills, but as his pet. Forced into a life of submission, Ania must navigate Adrik’s cruelty and her own growing attraction to the man who sees her as nothing more than his possession.
As the lines between captor and captive blur, Ania begins to uncover a side of herself she never knew existed. Ania must confront the truth—she may have been caught, but part of her wanted to submit to her Master.
A book after my own heart. Lovebite as always has created a beautiful, captivating story that kept me up almost all night to finish it.
Anita is a very good hacker and makes an appearance in previous book. She is hired to hack a system not knowing it’s the head of the Bratva until it’s too late. When he finally captures his little rabbit, the fun begins on the different type of tools he uses to break her.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and couldn’t wait until it came out. The way these character laid their emotions and trauma on the floor just had my heart. The evolution of the characters while also staying true to the essence was great. That Adrik has a kinky mind and I love every moment. As always Ms. Short, I wait with bated breath for the next book wondering what rabbit hole you’ll take me down and if I’ll recover. 😉
I love dark books and am all for a captive romance but author goes way too far. This book made me throw up he makes her be blind and that was only the first step of the messed up things he did to her.
