Volatile　unable to hold fixed attention; tending to erupt into violence

Anastasia

Vitali was supposed to be a harmless arrangement that would keep her heart safe and satisfied. He’s all golden smiles and wicked charm, the kind of man who makes you forget your rules, your plans, even your name.

But Vitali isn’t just another pretty face in her curated world of high society. Behind the easy laughter is a dangerous edge, one that comes with a family who makes deals in blood and a past that’s far from clean. She knows better than to let someone like him in, especially when he sees right through her designer masks.

He makes her feel things she doesn’t want to feel—safe, wanted, seen. And yet, every time she pulls away, he pulls her closer. She’s supposed to be hunting monsters, not falling into the arms of one.

He’s everything she doesn’t deserve, and everything she can’t resist.

Vitali

Anastasia is his every temptation wrapped in a stunning, infuriating package. He doesn’t care about the walls she’s built or the secrets she keeps. What he wants is simple: her.

But she’s reckless—too reckless for her own good—and it drives him mad. She doesn’t see how much danger she’s in, chasing shadows and playing with fire. He should let her fall, but he can’t.

She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s already his. He’s not just her lover; he’s her shield and her hidden dreams come to life. If anyone or anything dares to hurt her, Vitali will burn the world to the ground to keep her safe. Even from herself.

She says she doesn’t want more. She says she can’t love him. But he’ll make her see the truth, even if it destroys them both.
