Lila Simmons had plans - to escape her toxic home, graduate quietly, maybe disappear for good. But all of that ended the night her drunk, abusive father signed her life away to pay his gambling debts. He didn't just give her away-he sold her. To Antonio Russo. The world's most powerful, ruthless, and feared mafia king. A man who owns half the world, and now... her. Lila becomes his. His property. His responsibility. His problem. But the more she resists, the more Antonio is drawn in. Because she's not like the others. And for the first time in his cruel, calculated life... Antonio Russo doesn't want to break her. He wants to keep her. But love doesn't come easy when your world is built on control, secrets, enemies, and war.

Some flames burn quietly... until they don't. Aurora Bellini is the picture of innocence. Quiet. Kind. A law student with a soft heart and a tragic past. When a violent attack threatens her safety, she's placed under the protection of the Vitti family - Italy's most feared crime syndicate. More specifically, under the cold, watchful eye of their heir: Angelo Vitti. Angelo doesn't want her there. Too sweet. Too soft. Too breakable. But there's something about her that unsettles him. Her gentle smile, her quiet strength - it seeps past the walls he's spent years building. He tells himself she doesn't belong in his world. He tells himself to stay away. But he watches her anyway. Protects her anyway. And slowly, against his better judgment - he starts to burn for her. With war simmering between the Italian and Russian mafias, every secret is dangerous. Every glance, every touch, every whisper in the dark... it all matters. Because nothing is ever what it seems. And sometimes the softest things burn the most.
