Amalia Romano is sixteen years old now. Still a dancing prodigy, she lands herself a photoshoot for a magazine that'll help her get to where she wants to be. It seems like everything's going perfectly fine. Her grades are booming, she has a nice circle of friends and her family adore her. She's content, happy and finally safe where she is. Nothing can go wrong. That's what she thinks until Archer King, the typical bad boy, enters her life--brown hair so dark it's almost black, almost always obscured by his motorcycle helmet. Tattoos he's definitely not allowed embedded into his skin, and a careless attitude that clashes with hers. After a messy mix up in school, she decides to ignore him.. until she gets assigned to work with him for a project that'll make up a large chunk of her final grade for the year. Not only does she have to put up with him, but she also has to hide him from her family, since he's the exact type she's always been warned away from. She also has to juggle more than one relationship in her already hectic life. [COVER BY @sugarhighstoned]

⸻ She was born a weapon. Alina Reyes is a mafia princess raised in blood and silence-beautiful, volatile, and deadly when crossed. After witnessing her mother's murder at eight years old, she learned one rule early: never let anyone mistake your softness for weakness. When a forced marriage binds her to Ronan Kavanagh, one of the most feared mafia Dons in Europe, Alina expects a cage. She gets a battlefield. Ronan is cold, ruthless, and untouchable-a man who rules through fear and never explains himself. Their marriage is meant to be an alliance, nothing more. No trust. No affection. No illusions. But Alina is not the kind of woman who survives quietly. As enemies circle and old ghosts rise from the ashes of betrayal, Alina refuses to stay protected, hidden, or obedient. She doesn't want Ronan's permission-she wants her place beside him. And as secrets unravel and the past claws its way back into the present, their union becomes something far more dangerous than either anticipated. Because together, they don't just rule. They destabilize. ⸻
