For over a century, the Valenti Mafia has produced only sons. Generation after generation, the powerful family expanded its empire through ruthless leaders, feared heirs, and dangerous men whose names alone commanded respect throughout the underworld. Then, after decades of waiting, a daughter was finally born. Aria Valenti. The youngest child of the Valenti family and the only girl among eight older brothers. To the outside world, she is the family's greatest treasure. To Aria, she is simply a frightened eleven-year-old girl living in a mansion full of men she barely knows. Her brothers are feared throughout the country-mafia bosses, strategists, enforcers, and heirs to a criminal empire. They are not warm. They are not gentle. They do not know how to comfort a child. And Aria is terrified of every single one of them. Having spent most of her life surrounded by nannies, tutors, and distant relatives while her brothers managed the family empire, Aria has grown up believing she is little more than an obligation. She keeps to herself, never asks for anything, and tries her best not to be a burden. But when a small accident reveals just how isolated and vulnerable she truly is, her brothers begin to notice the little sister they have overlooked for years. What starts as concern soon becomes something far more dangerous. Because someone is watching Aria. Someone inside the mafia world is searching for her. And buried within the Valenti family's history lies a secret connected to the last daughter of the bloodline-a secret powerful enough to threaten the empire itself. As enemies close in and old family secrets come to light, Aria finds herself caught between fear and trust, surrounded by eight intimidating brothers who may not know how to express affection-but who would destroy anyone who dares to hurt the only daughter of House Valenti. In a family built on power, loyalty, and blood, one small girl may become the most important Valenti of them all.

The line went dead. That was all it took for him to left me at the Altar for her. *** ~ A REBIRTH STORY From childhood, Ira Veyansh was always compared to Niya Kapadia. Niya ~ the maid's daughter who could do everything better. Studies, sports, looks, manners, obedience, everything. Everyone loved Niya.

"I wish Niya was my sister." "Take a lesson from Niya." Day by day, Ira felt invisible. Starved for love and attention, she did things she shouldn't have, hurt Niya, humiliated her, even darker. But nothing worked. Then came Viaan. Her childhood love. The one she thought would finally make her happy. But he chose Niya too. The pain and humiliation were too much for her to handle.

She remembered everything. Every insult. Every betrayal. Every heartbreak. And somewhere in that second life... there is this man. Reevan. A man she was never meant to cross paths with. Forbidden. Yet somehow... tied to her fate. Now, the question is, will she let fate repeat itself, or will she change her story?
