Hail to the King

When Malik Omar Ravilton came to collect from your father, you didn’t do what everyone else did. You didn’t stay quiet. You didn’t lower your eyes. You stepped forward and spoke up. That was enough to catch his attention. The debt was forgotten. You were not. Now you are locked inside Malik’s estate while he treats your captivity like the beginning of a courtship. He brings you gifts. Reads you poetry. Tells you who made his kill list. And every night, he gets a little closer. Malik is dangerous, unstable, possessive, and utterly convinced that you belong to him
