Malicious Claim

The mind is the cruelest prison. Especially when he holds the key.

Leila Crawford was born into power. She never imagined watching it all burn—her family executed by the same man who now chains her to him with a ring: Makros Crete.
Makros is no ordinary villain. Brilliant, dangerous, and fractured, he plays with her mind as much as her body. One moment, he’s the devil; the next, a man haunted by shadows even darker than his crimes. As the lines between love and manipulation blur, Leila finds herself slipping into a psychological labyrinth of control, survival, and forbidden craving.
Can she outwit the man who broke her, or will she lose herself to the monster who’s made her his obsession?

A dark, seductive mind game of power, passion, and fractured identity.
