Driven Hearts: Capturing Victory

Hi, my name is Nikita Slater and I'm the International Bestselling author of The Queens series, Fire & Vice series, The Sanctuary series, Driven Hearts series and several standalone novels. I've loved the written word my entire life and am an avid reader, as well as a writer. I live, eat and breathe books and I'm always working on something new! ​ I live on the beautiful Canadian prairies with my son and crazy awesome dog. I have an unholy affinity for books (especially dark romance), wine, pets and anything chocolate. Despite some of the darker themes in my books (which are pure fun and fantasy), I am a staunch feminist and advocate of equal rights for all races, genders and non-gender specific persons. When I'm not writing, dreaming about writing or talking about writing, I love to help others discover a love of reading and writing through literacy and social work. Trapped, taken and caged by a cruel captor. Her solitary existence as a world class hacker changes in the blink of an eye when she's kidnapped by an international arms dealer. Everything she knows, everything she understands has shifted. Ivan Vogel insists that she is now his slave. He plays terrible mind games while torturing her senses. He keeps her locked up, away from all her toys. But once she is free, once she can fly again, she will reign hatred down on her enemy. She will use everything she knows against him, everything she has been taught until she is victorious. She will rip out the heart he insists beats only for her. His obsession will be his downfall. His caged bird will make sure of it. This book is standalone. Guaranteed HEA, NO cheating, NO cliffhanger. Sizzling dark mafia romance. Read at your own risk!

Chapter 25

"Are we under attack?" Ivan demanded, throwing the door to his security room open. Keane was already present along with two other men.

"Not yet, sir," Keane was quick to supply. "But this bird is not friendly. This is definitely reconnaissance. Next step will be a strike team and if they're organized they'll be here inside of ten minutes. With half of our security systems still down from the canary's escape attempt yesterday, we need to get the fuck out of here."

Ivan nodded. "Give the order, clear the island. Walk with me." Keane fell into step with Ivan as he strode down the corridors, retracing his steps toward his private quarters. "We'll go with exit plan Delta since Jaya took out the helicopter."

Keane cleared his throat. "Hate to say it boss, but the first thing the girl did up on the roof was black out our communications. Must've been her that sent a signal."
