Eighteen years ago, Zara LaRosa and Dante Salvatori used to play together as often as their parents allowed them to. One night, everyone in the LaRosa family home was killed, except little Zara who managed to escape with the head of her father's security.

She was taken to a safe house near Venice, an underground complex where she spent the last 18 years preparing for the moment when she will get revenge for her family's death and destroy the Salvatori family who were the culprits of the tragedy.

But Bonifacio Salvatori, the man who ordered her parent's execution is now dead, and his son Dante has become Don and taken over the mafia.

Zara resurfaces and starts operating from the shadows, killing Bonifacio's people who were involved in her home invasion and who are now loyal to Dante, earning a nickname Regina del Sangue (Queen of Blood) in the process.

Her true identity is unknown to everyone except for her team from the underground and she intends to keep it that way.

Will Zara be able to destroy Dante while hiding her identity from him and before he manages to kill her for taking out his people?All Rights Reserved

But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge.

FOUND by Linahestc

(UNDERGOING EDITING) My life was once a monotonous routine of work, work, and more work. The excitement was nonexistent, and my relationships were strained, especially with my mom. We'd fight constantly, and I'd often say things I'd later regret. But one argument stood out - the one where I told her I hated her, only to realize those might be the last words I ever spoke to her. That fateful evening, I returned to our shared apartment, expecting my mom's signature gesture of frustration - her pointed shoe. Instead, I was met with an eerie silence. Her favorite book lay open on her cherished couch, and her phone remained untouched. My mom's quirks were legendary, but this scene was unsettling. As I stepped further into the apartment, the air greeted me with an ominous scent - blood. My heart sank, and my mind racing, I wondered what had happened. Was my mom okay? Had our last argument triggered something irreparable? Little did I know, my life was about to take a drastic turn, one that would shatter my mundane existence and plunge me into a world of uncertainty and chaos
