Sienna Blake never expected her assignment in Milan to turn into anything more than a temporary career move. A smart, self-possessed journalist with a deep love for truth and a deeper instinct for avoiding entanglements, she's flown across the world to shadow one of the most powerful men alive: Massimo Esposito, the reclusive Italian billionaire CEO known for his ruthless control and camera-ready silence. But Sienna isn't afraid of power-she's just not impressed by it. What begins as a professional arrangement quickly evolves into a quiet game of tension. Massimo, cold-eyed and commanding, isn't used to being questioned-especially not by someone like Sienna, whose light brown skin, biting wit, and stubborn independence throw off his every calculation. As Sienna navigates distance, culture, and her own walls, she must decide: Is she simply a reporter doing her job-or a woman on the verge of breaking her own rules? And what happens when the world's most untouchable man finally takes a step closer? (+18) 🚨 (All pictures are not mine)

She stood, a smirk curling her lips, her gaze sharp enough to cut through steel. "You may command the world, Lucifer, but I know how to set that very world on fire." Lucifer's eyes darkened, a dangerous glint sparking in their depths. He stepped closer, his grip firm as he pulled her into the shadow of his power. "Then burn me, Fiore," he whispered, his voice like smoke and sin. "I'll worship the ashes."

"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOK
