Dr. Maya never imagined that her medical career would lead her into such a complicated personal conflict. During her internship, she is assigned to work with Dr. Adrian, a senior consultant doctor who is both firm and highly respected. Together, they must handle high-pressure medical situations, facing life-and-death decisions daily. But Maya is keeping a huge secret-Dr. Adrian is her husband, whom she secretly married for personal reasons. Known as a perfectionist, Adrian maintains a strict professional boundary, despite their relationship being far more complex than it appears. Amid the chaos of the medical world, the two must navigate their secret marriage, the tension between their personal feelings and professional responsibilities, and the undeniable love that begins to grow between them.

Chapter 1 Dr. Maya stood at the entrance of the emergency room

Dr. Maya stood at the entrance of the emergency room, her fingers trembling slightly as she adjusted her stethoscope. It was her first day working under Dr. Adrian, and she couldn't shake the sense of unease in her chest. She had worked with many doctors in the past, but none of them had the same effect on her as Dr. Adrian.

The man was a mystery. A consultant with years of experience, known for his sharp mind and unwavering dedication to his patients. His presence commanded respect-he was everything Maya aspired to be one day. But there was something else.

Dr. Adrian wasn't just her mentor. He was also her husband. A secret she had carefully hidden from everyone, even from the people she worked closest with. They had married under the most complicated of circumstances, a marriage forged in silence, away from prying eyes and gossip. No one knew about them-not their colleagues, not their friends, and especially not the hospital staff.

Maya's heart pounded in her chest as she walked into the bustling emergency room, her eyes scanning the patients being rushed in and out. She had to focus. She had to forget the tension that simmered beneath the surface every time their eyes met.

"Dr. Maya," a voice interrupted her thoughts, pulling her back to the present. It was Dr. Adrian, his voice calm yet authoritative. "You'll be assisting me in surgery today. Prepare the instruments and scrub in."

Maya nodded quickly, her stomach doing a nervous flip. She had trained for years, but nothing could prepare her for the anxiety of working side by side with the man she secretly called her husband.

They had kept their marriage a secret from the very start. Their decision wasn't based on love-not initially. It had been a strategic move, one that had been driven by personal reasons, a binding contract between two people who had their own complex motives. Their marriage had never been about romance, or at least, not in the way most people would think.

Maya remembered the day they had decided to get married. It had been a quiet, private ceremony in a small chapel, with no one but the two of them present. No family, no friends-just the two of them, bound together by an agreement that neither of them had truly understood at the time.

The agreement was simple: she would marry him, and in return, he would ensure that her career flourished. But the reality had been far more complicated than that. The more time they spent together, the more they began to learn about each other-about the layers of pain and ambition, the hidden desires and fears that they each carried.

As Dr. Adrian gave her instructions for the surgery, Maya's thoughts wandered. She had never been able to tell anyone about their marriage, nor could she ever allow herself to. Dr. Adrian had made it clear that their relationship was to remain private-untouched by the gossip that could easily ruin their careers. And so, they continued to live in silence, trapped in a world where their feelings were never allowed to come to the surface.

"Focus, Maya," Dr. Adrian's voice broke through her reverie once again. His gaze met hers for a brief moment, his eyes unreadable. There was a cool professionalism in his demeanor that Maya couldn't quite ignore, but there was also something else, something she couldn't place.

As they prepared for the surgery, Maya couldn't help but notice the distance between them. It was as if the air around them was thick with unspoken words, each one lingering between them, but neither of them daring to speak them aloud.

And yet, despite the barriers they had built around their lives, Maya couldn't deny the way her heart raced every time she was near him. She had always admired his skill and confidence, but now, after being married to him for months, she saw him through a different lens-one that was clouded by the complexities of their secret marriage and the tension that simmered just beneath their professional facades.

As the surgery began, Maya's hands moved with precision, her mind focused on the task at hand. But in the back of her mind, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was about to change. They were walking a thin line-together, yet apart.

And she didn't know how much longer she could keep pretending that everything was fine.

"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned. There'd be bloodshed if he touched her, but the sight of blood always did fascinate him. * When Susanna flees from her husband, she stumbles right into the arms of her devilishly handsome neighbour with a brooding glare. He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
