HIS MINI BEAR
Like in the deck of cards, the Ace outranks the King-and so does Ace Salvatore. A Greek-Italian mafia leader feared by all, Ace is a man of unspeakable cruelty, a calculated mind ruling an empire built on blood and terror. His face is a mystery- those who've seen it are long gone, silenced by his wrath. Manipulative, controlling, psychotic, and untouchable, he rules his empire with an iron fist, his past buried beneath layers of bloodshed and regret. His obsession with power and control leaves no room for weakness-not in himself, not in his enemies, and certainly not in others. When a desperate debtor can't repay what's owed, he offers something unexpected to settle the score: a little girl. Ace accepts the deal, not out of need, but because curiosity flickers in his mind- a curiosity he loathes. Yet the little girl is more than just an innocent. She unknowingly awakens ghosts of Ace's past- a life of betrayal, loss, and secrets he swore to bury. Even monsters have scars. The darkness that shaped him, the wounds he carries, and the revenge that fuels his every decision begin to resurface. The past never truly stays buried. As their worlds collide, her presence becomes both his salvation and his torment. But as the past catches up, threatening to destroy everything, Ace must face a harrowing choice: cling to the monster he's become, or risk everything for the one thing he never thought he'd have- a chance at redemption. Will his darkness consume her and change her? Or will she destroy him? #The book cover is not mine.![Save Us [EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/235797475-256-k627889.jpg)
