The question is, how do they survive their marriage and the storm that follows? *** "I've never kissed anyone." My voice trembled with a tinge of vulnerability - something I hated. But Costa didn't seem to mind that I was nervous or anxious. "Good. You're mine." He spoke so seriously, without a flicker of doubt as he took my hand in his. "So you want it be special, principessa?" "Every girl's first kiss is special." I whispered, watching as he brought my hand up to his lips. "I only care about yours."

"Tell me, Gianna," he says her name like a caress and a threat combined. "Were you disappointed?" He steps closer. Invasive. Possessive. "That I wasn't fighting? That you didn't get to see the Devil play?" His hand leaves her hair to trace her jawline-that same touch from before, the one that made her breath catch. "Because I don't fight for entertainment," he breathes, thumb brushing the corner of her mouth. "I fight when something is worth fighting for. When something is worth taking." His eyes burn into hers. "And I'm trying to decide, kotyonok..." The hand on her jaw tightens just slightly. "Are you worth the war I'd start to keep you?" They say the devil doesn't come with horns. He comes with power, legacy, and a smile that promises ruin. At Halgrave University, last names are weapons and secrets are currency. This is a world built for monsters-heirs raised on violence, dominance, and control. And at the center of it all stands Nikolai Vetrova-cold, untouchable, and feared even by those born into darkness. He was never meant to notice her. She was never meant to survive him. What begins as hostility turns into obsession. What feels like hate bleeds into desire. And the closer she gets, the more she realizes-loving him isn't dangerous. Surviving him is. Because some men don't fall in love. They claim. They ruin. And once the devil touches you, he never lets go. He is the Future Pakhan of the Bratva While she is the Cosa Nostra Princess.

They call her the "classical popular girl." Beautiful. Talented. Academic achiever. The kind of girl with thousands of followers and millions of silent admirers. The kind of girl everyone talks about and secretly wants. Ayani was the definition of a full package. Brains. Beauty. Grace. Reputation. On social media, her life looked perfect. At school, she was untouchable. In reality, she was just a girl who never got lucky in love. She had ex-boyfriends - yes. But none of them ever stayed. She kept asking herself, What's wrong with me? Was it her past? Her flaws? The rumors? Or was it simply because their egos couldn't handle a girl like her? Because loving Ayani wasn't easy. Most boys admired her from a distance. The brave ones tried to pursue her. But in the end, they all did the same thing - they left once they got what they wanted. And she was left questioning her worth. Then one day, someone came into her life - unexpected, intense, undeniable. For the first time, she felt chosen. Not admired. Not chased. But truly loved. Their love was epic - the kind people write about, the kind that feels eternal. With him, her life finally made sense. With him, everything felt perfect. Until it wasn't. He left. And the worst part? She let him go. She agreed to lose the only person she ever truly loved. But he made a promise before walking away. "I'll come back for you someday." And now she's left with questions that keep her awake at night- Will he really come back? What if someday never comes? What if he returns... but it's already too late? What if he chooses someone else? How long should she wait? Is love still love if it requires years of waiting? And if he finally comes back... Will she still be there? Or will this be another love story that was right person, wrong time?
