The Bound Queen: La Reine Liée
16 parts Ongoing MatureAlessia "Lessa" Moretti thought her biggest problem was deciding between designer handbags. Until she discovered her father's "business deal" was actually grand theft from Deimos Vescari-heir to Sicily's most ruthless crime empire.
His solution? Marriage. Not for love, but for access to her family's deadly secrets.
Forced into a gilded cage of silk sheets and crystal chandeliers, Alessia refuses to be just another beautiful bambola in his collection. Every rule he sets, she breaks. Every command he gives, she questions. Every touch he claims, she makes him earn.
But when jealousy over his past ignites something dangerous between them, the lines blur between captor and captive, between possession and devotion. As rival families close in and betrayal strikes from within, Alessia must decide: Is she his prisoner or his partner? His weakness or his weapon?
In a world where power is everything and trust can be fatal, two enemies discover that the most dangerous game isn't survival-it's love.
Some queens inherit their crowns. Others steal them. But the deadliest queens? They're bound to the kings who tried to break them.
For readers who love their romance dark, their heroes dangerous, and their heroines unbreakable.
