Wildfire Untamed

Seraj_Deep
"Autumn begins with Diana, but William is the most violent aftershock of her life." In the Knight family, William is the eternal embodiment of cold, calculated power—an unreachable patriarch. He moves like a frozen sculpture, sharp-tongued and disciplined, except when it comes to the ward living under his roof, Diana. For her, he harbors a possessive streak that borders on the pathological. Diana spent years convinced that William loathed her. His gaze was always clinical, filled with a chilling scrutiny that seemed to trample her dignity in front of the world. She retreated step by step, her only ambition being to escape this suffocating cage the moment she came of age. But on the very night she prepared to vanish, the man who was always so dignified pinned her into a lightless corner. Reeking of whiskey, his eyes were alive with a feral, untamed hunger. "Diana, you have such a cool, ethereal name... how can your heart be this ruthless? You want to leave? Only over my dead body." It turns out that all his restraint was a facade. Beneath that frost-covered exterior, William’s obsession had long ago grown out of bounds, spreading like a wildfire. He never intended to be her safe harbor; he intended to be the inescapable wilderness of her fate.
