The Wolf and Bambi

A Dark Romance by S. V. Rook

She’s the hunter. He’s the heart. But love doesn’t come without blood.

Sloane Ashbourne is a powerful CEO, trained in weapons, war, and ruthless control. She commands an international security empire—and has never bowed to anyone. That is, until she quietly becomes obsessed with a shy, soft-spoken artist named Minjun Seo.

Minjun lives a quiet life between graphic design and late-night video game streaming. Gentle, creative, and introverted, he’s the kind of man most overlook. But not Sloane. She sees every detail—and wants all of him.

When a ghost from Sloane’s past resurfaces, targeting Minjun to hurt her, everything changes. He’s no longer just the muse. He’s the target. But Minjun isn’t as fragile as he looks—and Sloane is about to find out what happens when the quiet ones bare their teeth.

Together, they’ll burn the world down before they let go of each other.
