The Enemy’s Defector (Ivanov Syndicate #3)

I betrayed my bloodline… for the man I should’ve feared.

Nikolai Ivanov. My enemy. My obsession. My baby’s father.

For thirty days, I hunted him.

Through whispers. Blood. Silence.

I found him broken. Tortured.

Still fighting for us.

One stolen night. One forbidden touch.

Now his child grows inside me.

Our secret. Our weakness. Our war.

My uncle wants me dead.

The Romanos want me silenced.

Nik fights like a demon to shield us.

“No one touches what’s mine,” he growls.

His hands claim me. Possess me. Worship me.

But now the contractions have begun.

The baby is coming.

And we’re surrounded.

Anton’s men are at our door.

Nik’s gun is loaded.

One hand steady on the trigger—

The other...

One hand steady on the trigger—

The other on my swollen belly.

“I won’t let them take you,” he whispers.

The baby kicks.

And the shooting starts.
