Cruel Experiment of Captive Love

Serena Cross once believed her marriage to brilliant neuroscientist Adrian was the safest place in the world. For ten years, she hid her true identity as the secret force behind a top research program, quietly funding Adrian’s rise while raising their children and protecting the family she loved. But on their anniversary, Serena wakes in an ambulance after thirty days of captivity, abuse, and a horrifying “experiment” involving animals. Worse, she overhears the truth: Adrian, their son Ethan, and her adopted sister Lydia planned everything for research data and personal ambition. Serena’s body is broken, but her heart finally turns cold. When she discovers that Lydia has stolen not only her husband’s devotion but also her son’s loyalty—and that her daughter Lila has suffered in another hidden experiment—Serena cuts all ties with the life she once cherished. She reclaims her identity as the true power behind the Valkyrie Group and begins a ruthless counterattack.
