Description

Isabella's life came to a sudden halt at the age of eighteen.
She had believed that being adopted by a wealthy family was a blessing from fate, giving her a second chance at life.
She had believed that Adrien was her protector, her family, the only person she could rely on.
Until she finally realized that everything about her life had been quietly controlled by him.
Even her "freedom" was just an illusion he had created.
She wanted to escape, to break free from the cage, but each time she resisted, he effortlessly crushed it.
She was filled with anger, fear, and hatred for his pathological possessiveness, to the point where she was willing to betray him and turn to his enemies.
But when he personally caught her and brought her back, she finally understood—
He had known her past all along;
Her future had never truly belonged to her.
"Why did you try to escape?" He trapped her in his arms, his gaze dark and crazed.
"Why are you doing this to me?" She struggled in pain, her eyes filled with accusation.
And when she finally saw the truth, she realized that she was never his prey.
She was his lifelong obsession, his only salvation.
And from the very beginning, her feelings for him were never just simple dependence...
This time, she would not run away.
