Captive of the Scarred Stranger

Alone and on the run, Angela finds herself trapped in a dangerous cycle of fear. A chance encounter at a small-town diner throws her into the path of a scarred, intimidating stranger and his crew. Now, held captive in his luxurious New York apartment, she's forced into a new nightmare. Can she survive living under the same roof as the man who instills such terror in her, or will she be consumed by the secrets and dangers that surround him?

The bitter October wind whipped around you as you shivered in your thin uniform dress. Another day at the diner, another day of looking over your shoulder. Moving to this quiet town near Toronto was supposed to be a fresh start, a place to finally stop running. But the past had a way of catching up.

As the familiar bell above the diner door jingled, your heart leaped into your throat. Three men in sharp suits walked in, followed shortly after by a fourth with a dark, scarred face and eyes that felt like they could see right through you. You tried to disappear into your tasks, but their presence filled the small space with a palpable tension. When your boss, Luigi, disappeared into his office with them, a knot of dread tightened in your stomach. You knew, with chilling certainty, that your carefully constructed fragile peace was about to shatter.
