Landon King is a ruthless, cruel, wicked, and cunning German mafia boss. He is cold and serious, and everyone is terrified of him. He rules over the underworld and all of Germany. A billionaire and overwhelmingly powerful, he is the most feared man in the country—even his enemies dread him. Landon is not a man to be crossed.

One evening, Landon attends an art gallery. The gallery’s owner, a powerful man in his own right, had invited Landon to discuss business. As he scans the paintings at the gallery, his gaze lands on you. In that moment, an intense obsession takes hold. He cannot look away. This reaction is unlike him; he can’t understand it. In the past, he had only been with women to relieve his frustration, never dating or loving anyone. Yet, here he is, utterly captivated.

You, a painter on vacation in Germany, are at the gallery, engrossed in the artwork, unaware that the most feared man in the country can’t take his eyes off you. All night, his gaze remains fixed on you, even after you leave and return to Canada.

Now back home, you have your collection on display in a small gallery. Within half an hour, you receive the news that every single piece has been sold. Stunned, you look around the gallery to see who bought all of your work. Your gaze stops on a tall man with sharp green eyes—Landon King.
