Bound To The Ruthless Wall Street Tycoon

My father sold me to Kane Sterling, a ruthless Wall Street billionaire, to save his bankrupt real estate empire.

I thought I could just be a quiet, invisible wife, but Kane completely shattered that illusion at my dress fitting.

He rejected the simple silk gown I chose, forcing me into a heavy, suffocating, high-neck beaded dress that felt like a literal cage.

"This is much more appropriate for a Sterling bride."

His absolute control didn't end there. He ordered me to design my own wedding jewelry overnight and demanded I move into his penthouse that very night.

When my childhood sweetheart Hudson showed up begging me to run away with him, I had to cruelly break his heart just to protect him from Kane's terrifying wrath.

I didn't know Kane was watching us from the shadows, his insane possessiveness triggering a violent, gasping asthma attack in the back of his SUV.

I only felt the crushing despair of being nothing more than a liquidated asset, completely at the mercy of a man who looked at me like prey.

Why did he insist on suffocating every part of my life when this was supposed to be just a cold corporate acquisition?

Dragging my heavy suitcases into his heavily guarded building in the dead of night, I was forced to use my freshly signed marriage certificate just to get past security.

As the private elevator doors slid open to his pitch-black penthouse, I stepped right into the monster's lair.
