Perilous by AJ Nox

Freedom died the moment he touched me—and I haven’t wanted it back since.

I thought rebellion would taste like laughter in the dark, like the rush of doing something dangerous and surviving it. But one reckless night shattered everything, and now… I belong to a man with orders to end me.

Perilous. The Legion’s most lethal weapon. Cold. Calculated. Merciless.

He was supposed to keep the knife to my throat.

Instead, he took me.

Now I’m caged, hidden away by the very thing I should fear most—a killer who watches me like I’m the only thing keeping him tethered to this world. His obsession is a slow burn, wrapping around my throat with every stolen glance, every twisted touch.

But I’m not just his captive. I’m the daughter of a powerful man whose secrets could destroy everything—and there’s a secret society who will do anything to keep those secrets buried.

As desire blurs into control and truth rots into betrayal, I have to ask myself what’s more dangerous: the killer who won’t let me go… or the way I’m starting to crave him.

Perilous is my story—dark, twisted, and unforgettable.

A tale of obsession, ruin, and the kind of love that doesn’t come with a happy ending… just a price.
