Velvet Chains: Bound by Desire

Elena Hart, a struggling but fiercely independent art curator in Manhattan, is thrust into a hidden world of wealth and temptation when she agrees to be part of an exclusive underground auction—where the elite bid for one night of companionship. Enter Kael Mercer, a reclusive billionaire with a dark past and an appetite for control. Cold, calculating, and devastatingly seductive, Kael doesn’t want art. He wants her. But what starts as a transaction quickly spirals into a game of dominance and vulnerability neither of them can walk away from. As Elena fights to keep her heart guarded, Kael breaks every rule to possess her—body and soul. But in his world of secrets, enemies, and luxury drenched in lust, desire can be deadly... and love could cost them everything. Will Elena fall for the man behind the mask, or will Kael’s chains be too tight to escape?
