Trapped By My Ex's Ruthless Uncle

“I woke up in a sprawling Manhattan penthouse, wearing a stranger's oversized shirt, with dark bruises blooming across my collarbone. My phone was gone, replaced by a black credit card and a note with a single word: Stay. The man who claimed me wasn't just some random billionaire. He was Clayton Rhodes, the terrifying uncle of my ex-boyfriend, Nathaniel. And Nathaniel was currently planning his engagement party to my cruel stepsister, Hillary. My stepfamily had stolen my mother's inheritance, driven me out, and orchestrated the car crash that left my mother on life support. When I was working three jobs to pay her $300,000 medical bills, Nathaniel was secretly sleeping with Hillary. "I want your presence. Your loyalty. Your time. You stay at my side, and the Murphys will answer for what they've done." Clayton offered me a deal with the devil. He paid my mother's bills and helped me destroy my stepfamily, but in exchange, he owned me completely. I signed the contract, thinking it was just a business transaction for revenge. But Clayton's protection quickly morphed into a terrifying, suffocating obsession. He tracked my every move, isolated me, and brutally crushed anyone who even looked at me. I thought I was just a helpless pawn in his twisted game of control. Until one night, I glanced at his unlocked phone and my blood ran cold. On his screen was the highly classified symbol of the Chiron Network-the elite, anonymous hacker collective. He didn't just want Chloe, the disgraced heiress. He was hunting my hidden identity, Nyx. I grabbed my clothes, opened the heavy front door, and ran into the night.”
