He didn't buy a wife. He bought a soul to ruin.
---
Seraphina Cross was raised to believe in survival-not fairy tales. Living in a rundown apartment with her alcoholic father and broken dreams, she knew life was cruel. But nothing prepared her for the moment she was sold... like property.
To Valerio Knight.🥀
A mafia king so feared, even devils whisper his name in the dark. Cold, calculated, and devastatingly powerful, Valerio doesn't believe in love. He believes in debt. And Seraphina's father owes him more than he could ever repay.
So he takes the only thing of value left: his daughter.
Seraphina is thrust into a world of velvet and violence-where diamonds shine beside bloodstains, and every smile hides a knife. She hates him. Resists him. Fights him.
But Valerio isn't a man who takes "no" easily.
He doesn't want her heart. He wants her obedience.
Yet the more she rebels, the more obsessed he becomes.
And the more she falls... the more she wonders if he'll ever let her go.
Because in his world, owning means breaking.
And breaking her might be the only thing that can make him feel alive again....♡
