But when tragedy strikes, her life is shattered, leaving her a mere shell of who she used to be. Wracked with self-hatred and haunted by the past, she's lived in isolation, barely holding on. Now, an old threat resurfaces, threatening to destroy the last pieces of her fragile sanity. Desperate, she makes a choice she never imagined-striking a deal with the one man she vowed never to fall for. Aman Mehra. Flirtatious, charming, and irresistibly charismatic, he's the man everyone calls the "golden-retriever energy." But Nitya knows better. She's seen what lies beneath the surface, and she's sure she could never love someone like him. After all, the devil you know is better than the monster lurking in the shadows. Their agreement is simple: a marriage of convenience. He gets out of an unwanted engagement, and she gains his protection. But can a deal with the devil ever truly stay just business? A marriage of convenience. Or is it really? ═════ βœ₯.❖.βœ₯ ═════ πΆπ‘œπ‘šπ‘π‘™π‘’π‘‘π‘’π‘™π‘¦ 𝑖𝑛 πΈπ‘›π‘”π‘™π‘–π‘ β„Ž πŸŽ€ π™’π™–π™§π™£π™žπ™£π™œ πŸ”žβš οΈ This book contains mature content intended for readers aged 18 and above.

In the brutal world of the European underworld, two of the most feared men unexpectedly become fathers overnight. Lukas Voss, the cold and ruthless 30-year-old German Mafia Don, and Marco Romano, his fiery 25-year-old Italian Capo, have built their empire on blood, power, and unbreakable loyalty. Their love was already a dangerous secret - until the night they raided an Albanian trafficking ring and found her. A tiny, broken 5-year-old girl named Lila, covered in bruises, hiding in the dark with nothing but a dirty stuffed rabbit. When she looked up at them with big hazel eyes and whispered, "Did you come because I prayed for papas who won't hurt me?" - something inside both men shattered. They were supposed to leave no witnesses. Instead, they burned the place down and took her home. Now, these two deadly mafia kings are legally adopting a little girl who flinches at loud voices but still believes in love, fairy tales, and happy endings. While enemies circle their empire seeing her as their greatest weakness, Lukas and Marco must learn how to be fathers while staying monsters. With chaotic Italian and German families getting involved, late-night cuddles, overprotective uncles, and two very different men trying to raise a little sunshine in their dark world - one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: They would destroy the entire world to keep their daughter safe. A story of dark romance, found family, healing, and two dangerous men discovering that the tiniest girl might be the one who saves them.
