About this audiobook
He doesn’t threaten.He doesn’t chase.He chooses.
Dr. Elena van der Meer doesn’t believe in monsters.
As a criminal psychologist working with Rotterdam’s Organized Crime Unit, she has built her career on one principle: there are no devils—only decisions.
Until she meets Adrian El-Masri.
Billionaire. Philanthropist. Founder of a global logistics empire.
And the man whispered about in interrogation rooms as if saying his name too loudly might invite consequences.
When a mid-level operative steals a secret ledger that could expose an underground empire, Elena is pulled into a dangerous game of leverage and control. Adrian doesn’t deny the shadows around him. He simply reframes them.
He offers her a choice:Convince the thief to return what was taken…Or watch chaos unfold.
But the deeper Elena steps into Adrian’s world, the more she realizes this isn’t just about crime or power.
It’s about proximity.
About obsession dressed as protection.About influence that feels like gravity.About a man who doesn’t force surrender—he earns it.
In a city built on secrets and steel, Elena must decide:
Expose the empire.Or risk becoming part of it.
Because the devil didn’t hunt her.
He chose her.
