Summary Feared as the most ruthless mafia boss in the underworld, Don Alessandro Valenti never expected his life to change in an orphanage hallway. There, he adopts a three-year-old boy meant to be his future heir-small, wide-eyed, and painfully innocent. What was supposed to be a strategic decision becomes his greatest weakness. As the boy grows, the Don's cold heart softens into fierce devotion. He shields his son from blood, betrayal, and the darkness of their world, raising him with a love no one dares question. To the mafia, the child is untouchable-protected by death itself. Years later, the innocence Alessandro tried so desperately to preserve blooms into defiance. The son falls in love. Not with a civilian. Not with a safe choice. But with another mafia boss-older, cold, ruthless and just as dangerous as Alessandro once was. Now faced with the one thing he cannot control, Alessandro must decide: Will he destroy the man who dares to love his son... Or accept that love, even in the mafia, can bloom in blood and shadows? Because for the first time in his life, the ruthless Don is terrified of losing the one thing he loves more than power.
