The air in Rafael's lavish study was thick with unspoken tension, the scent of expensive cigars clinging to the opulent drapes. He stared out the window, a silent, brooding sentinel overseeing his empire, but his mind was a whirlwind of fury and fear.

Cataleya. The name was a whisper on his lips, a brand on his soul. She was gone, vanished into the clutches of Hunter Steel, his sworn enemy. He had tried to protect her, to control her, even to break her, but now, the void she left was a gaping wound. He gripped the heavy crystal decanter on his desk, his knuckles white.

He had underestimated the depth of his feelings, the sheer, agonizing terror of not knowing her fate. He had always believed love was a weakness, a vulnerability to be exploited. Now, he was living his worst nightmare, his greatest fear realized.

But fear was not something Rafael Curzio succumbed to. It fueled him. He would find her. He would tear down every city, every man, every obstacle in his path. This wasn't just a rescue; it was a reckoning. A war for the woman who had made him feel, who had, against his will, made him love.
