Athena's Pain

She was meant to be payment. Instead, she'll become a weapon.

After the death of her grandmother, Athena thought grief would be her biggest battle. She didn't expect to be kidnapped, stripped of her freedom, and dragged into the brutal underworld her father left behind. Now, she's being held as collateral for a debt she didn't know existed, in a world where women are bought, broken, and sold.

But Athena wasn't raised to be weak.

Her captors think they own her. They're wrong.

In the shadows, four men are willing to burn everything to get her back.
-Oliver, her childhood best friend, who's been keeping deadly secrets.
-Malachi, a cocky mafia heir with a sharp tongue and blood on his hands.
-Hayden, his golden-hearted twin, hiding his own scars behind soft smiles.
-And Ethan, the stoic guard who just might risk everything for her.

Trust is dangerous. Love is lethal.
And in a world built on power and pain, Athena's about to show them what happens when the girl they underestimated stops playing by their rules.
