Silk and Stone: A Dark Forced Proximity Romantic Suspense Novella

By: Millie Lake

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

She ran from monsters for years. He is the predator who found her.

Katherine has survived by becoming invisible, changing names like others change clothes. Until she crashes into Stone on a crowded street corner.

The President of the Steel Vipers doesn’t let anyone invade his territory—or his thoughts. But something about her haunted eyes makes him break his own rules.

“You’re under my protection now,” he tells her.

“I don’t need a protector,” she challenges, even as danger shadows her every step.

“You need me,” he promises, his dark gaze claiming what he hasn’t yet touched.

When her past catches up in the form of Dimitri Volkov—the ruthless trafficker who’s hunted her across the country—Katherine must make an impossible choice: keep running alone or trust the dangerously seductive man who makes her crave surrender for the first time.

As bullets fly and secrets unravel between heated nights, Stone realizes he’ll burn down the entire underworld to keep what he’s claimed. And Katherine discovers that the most dangerous addiction isn’t to the fear that kept her alive—it’s to the man who makes her never want to run again.

Between silken sheets and loaded guns, they discover the most exquisite danger isn’t the threat of death—it’s the possibility that their broken pieces might fit together perfectly.

She came to him with nothing but scars. He showed her pleasure could be a weapon.

In the shadows where power and desire collide, surrender isn’t weakness—it’s the ultimate seduction.

Where running ends, possession begins.
