...Dedication...

...To the darkness that surrounded me since I was little whenever I found myself alone, thinking it was my end, but on the contrary, it only made me stronger...

...To all the girls who dream of one day being kidnapped by a rich mafioso or pursued by a stalker, or perhaps a masked guy who, when he finally shows his face, you'll discover he's incredibly hot...

...Who, perhaps after one or two books, still wonder why you're single? Or wonder if you made the right choice with your current relationship...

...For the simple fact of the fetish of being touched like the woman in this book...

...I wish good luck to your current and future partners because it's impossible not to try to compare after reading books like this...

...To all the women who dreamed of a Prince Charming on a white horse but now sigh madly to belong to a villain...

...I ask for forgiveness right from the start, not because the book is heavy, since it's now very clear how my beloved readers are anything but saints, even if no one knows it (but I know), so I want to give some advice...

...It's better not to read this book in public places or when you're not alone, as I already know how difficult it is to resist the temptation to cross your legs tightly when reading a (You are mine) or in this case "You are ours"...

...Or perhaps because of the characters' promises, who always say how much they'll make the heroine scream their name...

...Spoiler: She will scream... a lot... not just one, but 5 different names...

...So, my loves, I will dedicate this book to you who, like me, are obsessed with characters of dubious character, great madmen, psychopaths, and possessives, and who, like me, urgently need a psychologist (although perhaps I will never seek one, as this is an obsession of mine that I do not intend to cure)...

...And also to those who dream of living a Dark Romance, but at the same time are afraid of not being able to handle it or perhaps not having the mentality for it...

...Let's be honest, friends? Who would think of anything else or refuse a man, yes, crazy perhaps... cruel for sure, and possessive as hell, but who would love you so much to the point of giving you his own life if you asked?...

...I would never refuse.........

...And also to those who dream of being treated like a princess but who would also give a silly smile looking in the mirror and seeing the marks on their body to remind you how good last night was......

...To those who may judge at first but later will dream of having a hand on their neck while hearing an I love you in their ear...

...And also to you who hide behind your cell phone screen and don't even comment so as not to get caught reading something as heavy as this book...

...It's okay, friend, let's pretend that your ideal type of man isn't the one who calls you princess but who in bed would make you scream until your lungs burn, until you feel your legs begging for help, unable to even bear the weight of your own body...

...Warning...

This book will contain: Adult content, with very detailed hot scenes, and possible triggers such as: Anxiety attacks, attempted murder, grief, physical and verbal aggression (Making it clear that the aggression will not be directed at the female character), swear words, and manipulation (NOT GRAPHIC).

*And also a polyamorous relationship, not between three but between 6 people... one woman and 5 men, so if you don't like this type of reading, I advise you not to read this book, it's not for you, as I always make this very clear in the titles and at the beginning of my books, and even so, there's always someone who complains* ....

I also want to make it very clear that, like all Dark Romance books, don't expect the characters in this book to always be nice (They won't be).

*I thought a lot about whether or not to bring this book, especially because I think it's a bit heavy for this application, but since I saw that you liked the books I brought with this theme, then let's go* ...

So, to summarize, this book, like the others I've written, is for those who see themselves in a relationship different from all others.

For those with an open mind who know that the great truth is that in love, there are no rules.

Or a right way to love, after all, who can judge something so true? As wrong as it may seem.

I wonder how many of you have imagined being loved by a man different from others, despite all his flaws, but who would be capable of facing God and the world if necessary to have you by his side.

Maybe a masked man....maybe a mafioso....maybe a serial killer (yes, I know you've had big meltdowns in the middle of the night reading a book where the guy was a crazy psychopath and still attracted you like hell).

But what about a big billionaire? A cold and calculating control-freak CEO with a dual personality who has not an ounce of pity for those who get in his way.

Perhaps a sadistic and sarcastic bad boy who can read people perfectly, who, even though he had a fortune and women at his feet, it was never enough for him because he was addicted to illegal things, from fights and drugs... to dangerous races that, in the end, involved so much money and added so many zeros to his bank account that even he didn't dare to count.

Maybe your father's head of security and best friend, who actually hid a cruel, murderous monster responsible for taking so many lives that not even he could count, who on the outside seems to be just a damn handsome man, but on the inside, even he wonders if there's still a little light amidst so much darkness, a true masochistic, sadistic, and antisocial torturer.

Or a handsome lawyer who, in the end, is responsible for money laundering and even for acquitting filthy men just to give them their punishment, since he himself knows that no law other than his own would be capable of truly making them pay for their sins, besides being the gang's private lawyer, he is a possessive sociopath and psychopath.

Or maybe the son of the town's Sheriff, an ex-army marine whom his father raised hoping to create a good man of the law, but who actually became his gang's hacker, a cruel, murderous bipolar man with the mind of a psychopath....besides an innocent appearance like that of an angel, but a soul as dark and cold as that of a demon.

"Alyssa Bennet narrating"

I look around as I let out a frustrated sigh, since it's been more than three hours since the last sign of civilization.... three hours that I've been looking around and all I see is just wilderness.....trees and mountains.

Not that I'm finding it bad....okay, maybe I am....but honestly, I even kind of like it, you know? My mother loved nature, and that's why she made sure I joined the school's scout group.

But here's the thing, I'm a fan of horror movies, and everyone who has watched at least one movie from the "Wrong Turn" saga knows how much can go wrong on a trip like this.

Especially being alone in the middle of nowhere, in a place I don't even know, and I don't even know if I'm lost or not... Heaven forbid.

I look around once more, wondering if I'm really on the right path since the damn GPS seems to have glitched out, and since I'm so lucky, not to say the opposite.

I have no signal.

Oh, glory... This is God warning me that maybe I'm going to live a much shorter life than I thought, since I'm only 24 years old.

Or maybe it's just a lecture, since I should have accepted when my father offered to come pick me up.

This is what I get for being stubborn....but I just wanted to show that I'm okay since he's very worried....maybe because he had to put up with me crying like a baby over a phone call three months ago.

I smile thinking about how cliche my life is....Born in a small town in rural Virginia, a town I don't even remember what it's like, since my parents divorced when I was only 3 years old and my mother took me with her to the big city.

I grew up seeing my father only on special occasions, birthdays, or school performances, since I didn't even come to stay with him during vacations.

It wasn't his fault, as I was always kind of very attached to my mother, and the idea of being without her for a day when I was little was terrifying. And as I grew up, I kind of never got interested in knowing the town where I was born, because as much as I like being close to nature, living in it is another thing.

Losing signal, now that's scary as hell for me.

At least the car is working, and thank God I managed to remember to download my music playlist.

But anyway, here I am, returning to the place where I was born and to the only family I have left, since I lost my mother a year ago.

I sigh, remembering how hard it was to get used to waking up every day and not seeing her there, but what can I do? Since unfortunately, they still haven't found a cure for cancer.

I am Alyssa Bennet, and this is my story. I will tell you how my life changed so much and became such a huge mess from the moment I decided to return to the town where I was born.
