Bind you in hellbound

Elena was ten when her mother died, leaving her father to marry her mom’s best friend—his secretary. Now Elena lies trapped beneath her stepbrother Paul, his grip relentless as dawn creeps through the car window. She strokes his hair and hums her mother’s lullaby, but her body screams with pain. “You know how much I love you,” she whispers, kissing him goodbye. “You gave me the ability to hurt you.” She slips away, a black-crimson wound bleeding on her back. Paul Wilson, a boy consumed by paranoid obsession, craves total possession of Elena. But as their bond shatters, her hatred grows—and his love leaves nothing but scars.
