She was the daughter of his greatest enemy. A pawn in a war she never asked to fight. He was the ruthless Mafia boss who took her hostage... and made her his wife. Alessia never expected her life to be traded like currency, but when Luciano Moretti drags her into his world of blood, power, and vengeance, she learns one brutal truth-freedom is a luxury, and love is a weapon. What starts as hatred turns to obsession. What begins in chains ends in surrender. But in a world where loyalty is deadly and hearts are a weakness, trusting the man who stole her may cost her everything-including herself. Until she becomes his greatest vulnerability. And he becomes the only man she'll ever love. In a dangerous game of power, betrayal, and redemption, can love survive the fire that forged them?
