30 Days of Passion and Revenge

**This book is a dark romance and contains abusive and mature content.** In a world where power and passion collide, Lily Anderson finds herself entangled in a web of deceit and desire with Ethan Blackwood, a man of enigmatic charm and ruthless ambition. Their tumultuous relationship is a battleground of wills and wits, where Lily struggles to maintain her dignity and autonomy against Ethan's domineering control. As they navigate through a series of encounters that test the limits of trust and betrayal, a question lingers in the air: Can love flourish in the shadows of manipulation, or will it wither under the weight of dark intentions? Throughout their journey, the dialogue between Lily and Ethan is peppered with moments of tension and revelation, offering a glimpse into the complex dynamics of their relationship: "I'm not finished," Lily glared at him defiantly, reaching for another bottle from the ice bucket. With a resounding crash, Ethan upended the entire bucket, his eyes darkening with barely contained fury. "Get the hell out of here, all of you!" He snarled, his face contorted with rage. How dare they ogle his woman like that? "You belong to me. Your body, your time, your very existence—all of it is mine to do with as I please," Ethan growled, his face mere inches from hers, asserting a claim that Lily vehemently resisted. "I don't belong to anyone," she spat, her voice trembling. "Least of all a monster like you." "You'll learn, Lily. One way or another, you'll learn your place," Ethan's lips curled into a cruel smile, promising a future of struggle and submission. "I'll do anything you want," Lily whispered, her soul fracturing with each syllable, as she made a choice that would change her life forever. "Because my name is Ethan Blackwood," he said, a statement that carried with it a weight of power and a promise of consequences yet to be seen.

A Tangled Web

"Say what?" Ethan raised his eyes, meeting Lily's as she leaned against the edge of his desk. "What exactly occupies your thoughts? An interest in Carter Group? Or perhaps a desire to oppose them?"

Ethan could discern with a single glance that she was disconcerted.

"No, it's nothing." Lily offered a wry smile.

Had Uncle Bill been so imprudent as to mention nothing upon seeing her image? Had her appearance changed so drastically from childhood that Uncle Bill failed to recognize her?

Then Alex was still in the dark?

"Come here." Ethan set down his coffee cup, reached out to draw her into his embrace, and lowered his head to kiss her. "Go watch TV and retire for the night. I have some work to attend to here for a while."

"What kind of work?" Lily glanced towards the stack of A4 papers on the table and continued without waiting for Ethan to respond, "It's already late. Why don't we turn in early and resume our tasks tomorrow?"
