The Russo family-Italy's most feared and revered mafia dynasty-was built on blood, loyalty, and legacy. For years, Don Salvatore and Donna Giulia ruled the underworld with their seven sons, longing only for a daughter to complete their empire. Their prayers were answered in the form of twin girls: Isabella, the perfect golden child... and Alessia, the heart of the family. Until everything shattered. At just three years old, Alessia was framed by her own twin sister for a crime she didn't commit. Betrayed by the family who once adored her, she was exiled to a place darker than hell-a so-called "boarding school" that turned children into weapons. There, Alessia died. And in her place, Lucifer was born. Trained as an assassin. Sold to the Mexican mafia. Tortured. Transformed. At thirteen, she slaughtered the very cartel that owned her-and rose as its queen. By seventeen, she was the most feared assassin in the world, the CEO of eleven global empires, and the beloved "Rani" of India under her new family: the Kaalarajyas. Her identity? A ghost. Her pain? A legacy. But the past has a pulse-and it's time to collect. Now, Alessia is coming back to the world that betrayed her. Not to forgive. Not to be welcomed. But to make the Russo family kneel. They called her dead. They called her a monster. They forgot... she's a Russo too. Ruthless by Blood is a tale of betrayal, rebirth, and the rise of a queen who was never meant to survive-but was born to rule. What will happen if they find out the truth? read- to find out. #4 in assassin- 02/10/25

New York never slept, but that night, the Ricci household did. The penthouse, usually filled with laughter, music, and the scent of fresh espresso, had fallen into an eerie silence. The soft hum of the baby monitor sat unnoticed on the bedside table. No one heard the creak of the nursery door. No one noticed the absence of breath from the bassinet. By morning, the world had changed. Three year old Alessandro Ricci was gone. The first scream came from Valentina, the eldest daughter. She was the one who found the empty crib, the soft blue blanket discarded on the floor. Then came the chaos-the panic in their father's voice as he barked orders in rapid Italian, the trembling in their mother's hands as she clutched the baby's last-worn onesie.

Someone had taken Alessandro. And three years later, as the city moved on, they never did. Because somewhere out there, their baby brother was waiting to come home.
