The Cosa Nostra was a brutal hierarchy from the day it was created. The man who rules it-Vittorio Genovese-sat at the top of it all. So, when the day comes and he decides to enact a plan to overthrow his biggest rival, Alexi Dimitri, he decides that the best way to destroy his enemy is to take the one thing he spent his life protecting. His daughter. Syrena Dimitri avoided violence at all costs, pursuing education and knowledge as her own form of power. Her parents made sure to provide her that, granting her the choice to build her own life, far from the life they lead. But when a man like Vittorio takes that all away, she has no choice but to do the thing she would regret the least: Survive. Vittorio throws her into a Cosa Nostra tradition, a sick and twisted form of entertainment created to find a wife suitable for the members of the criminal organization, widely known as the Italian Games. Now Syrena has to play to win and survive, both from the deadly games and from the clutches of Vittorio Genovese, all while trying to find a way back home. But Syrena soon finds out that she was locked in a prison, one whose keys are in the hands of the Italian mobster. An Italian bastille. [The third installment in the Mafia Chronicles and a complete standalone]

The Russian mafia followed a set of old-fashioned traditions, one of which is called 'The blood pact'. To the Dimitri family, the strongest bonds are blood bonds. That's what the last living descendant of the Dimitris, Alexi Dimitri, believes. When wrong intel arrives, accusing his father's former right-hand man, Igor Knight, of having a hand in his parents' murders, Igor has no option but to merge their families through marriage to gain his Don's trust and save his family from a dark fate. The blood pact binds his daughter, Sophie knight, and Alexi Dimitri in holy matrimony, till death do them part. The young woman learned long ago that everything happens for a reason, so when it came down to a life-or-death situation, there was no second-guessing herself. It was either die at the hands of the Russian Don or die living alongside the Russian Don. Sophie Knight knew that life loves to shoot you with its surprises, almost like a game of Russian roulette, but what she didn't know is that the bullet is going to hurt like a bitch.
