The Golden Cage

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Elysian "Eli", a gentle and innocent florist, accidentally witnesses a brutal underground execution carried out by the city's most feared mafia kingpin, Kaelen Vane. Instead of silencing the witness permanently, Kaelen finds himself strangely captivated by Eli's purity and stops his men from killing him. To protect Eli from rival syndicates and inside traitors who want the witness dead, Kaelen locks him away inside his heavily fortified, ultra-luxurious mansion—effectively turning it into a "Golden Cage." As Eli struggles against his captivity, he slowly discovers the dangerous vulnerabilities behind the mafia boss's cold exterior, sparking an intense, protective, and high-stakes romance in the heart of the underworld.

Hm... Sounds promising. Showing the cast is not a bad idea, and the descriptions work, but e.g. if we already know who the mole/ traitor is, it kills a bit of suspence... Also, sometimes it's better to "show" than "tell" - show the clothes instead of saying they always wear that. Show them drinking, instead of stating they like this or that drink. Etc. I'll keep reading ;-)
