Recklessly Broken

THE DARKER THE TRAUMA, THE TIGHTER THE BOND

The silence of the penthouse is louder than the screams I left behind in Fiedler's warehouse. I thought I knew what fear was, but I was wrong. True terror isn't being caught-it's realizing that the only man who can save you is the one who stole your freedom in the first place. My name is Lena Caldwell, and I am psychologically shattered.

Declan Varley brought me back from the brink, but he didn't return me to the world. He locked me away in a fortress of sterile control and feral possessiveness. I should hate the way he manages my every breath, the way he uses his dominance to drown out my PTSD, but the truth is scarier: I'm starting to crave it. He is the only thing keeping me grounded while my world spins out of control.

But there's a snake in our garden. While Declan hunts for a traitor, the paranoia is eating us alive. The enemy isn't outside the gates anymore; they're sitting at our table. Every touch feels like a desperate prayer, and every night is a battle to remember where the trauma ends and the love begins. We are a broken unit, held together by secrets and shadows.
