PAIGE'S PAIN by E.L. Beth Dylan Lawrence was never meant to survive. Captured, tortured, and left to rot in the basement of his enemy’s estate, hope was a distant memory—until she appeared. Paige Flinders never knew the true extent of her father’s darkness. But when she discovers a half-dead stranger shackled in the cold depths of their home, her instincts scream to help him. She doesn't ask questions. She just acts—unlocking the chains that bind him to hell. But freedom comes at a price. Now the man she saved—dangerous, vengeful, and merciless—has taken her. Dylan isn't interested in gratitude. He wants answers, revenge, and control. Paige becomes his leverage, his captive, and soon… his obsession. Trapped in a twisted game of power, lies, and buried secrets, Paige must face the terrifying truth: the man she rescued might be just as ruthless as the one she tried to escape. And Dylan must confront the war within—between his thirst for vengeance and the pull of the woman he should hate. In this dark tale of betrayal and blurred lines, love is pain… and pain is inevitable Warning: This book contains material of sex and submission. It is recommended for readers 18 years and over.
