When the venerable Don of Casata Moretti-a man whose name carried weight in hushed corridors and across gilded boardrooms-uncovers the quiet treachery of the past, the very foundations of his empire tremble. The woman he once called his only love, a fleeting softness in a life carved from steel and silence, had vanished from his world with no explanation. Now, years later, he learns the truth: she bore him a son in secret-an heir not raised in the shadow of Moretti, but crowned at the helm of a rival syndicate. A new sovereign has risen in the underworld, one born of his blood, yet groomed beyond his reach. Betrayal, legacy, and blood now twist together in a silence far louder than war.

New town. New house. New hell. When Mercy Lawrence moves in with her mom and new stepdad, the last thing she expects is for her stepbrother to hate her on sight. Chase makes it his mission to ruin her life-along with his best friend, Cameron. Every day is a nightmare... until a new guy shows up. Baylor. The first person to be kind to her. To notice her. To care. But Chase and Cameron don't like that. Not because they care about her happiness-but because someone else is stealing their girl. ___________________________ I'm pushed up against a wall behind me, only it wasn't a wall. It was Cameron. His hands grip my hips to steady me, squeezing gently, which causes my breath to hitch. Chase draws my attention back to him when he grips my waist, his hands resting above Cameron's. "Does he make you feel this way?" He grips my hips tighter, not tight enough to hurt, but I do release a whimper. I blush as I look away in hopes they didn't hear. By the that Chase snickers, I'm assuming my hope was not fulfilled. I still avoid eye contact, turning my head away, only for a hand to gently wrap around my throat, turning back to face Chase. Cameron leans down next to my ear, breath heavy. "No you don't, pretty girl. You dont get to turn away from us, not after that little stunt you pulled."
