Synopsis

She met the male lead of a dark, torrid novel inside a prison cell. She recognized him immediately — but the state he was in was hard to explain. Cursed to lose his mind like a beast, he barked and growled at her. Even after coming back to himself, his attempts at serious conversation came out as a stammering, blushing mess. Figuring any kind of romance was safely off the table, she relaxed. Then he asked her to meet him the day they were both released. She agreed easily enough — after all, how hard could that be? Except when she walked out of prison, she found out she was the beloved little sister of his greatest enemy, a villain who had apparently arranged her incarceration in the first place. Three years later, when they meet again, the male lead is wearing a very different expression. 'Hello, Iana,' he says. 'I'm here to kidnap you.'
