In a world ruled by shadows, even the queen can be lost to the darkness.

Athena thought she could outrun the violence, the betrayal, and the life she once knew. After years of hiding, she had finally built a fragile sanctuary, keeping her daughter Arie safe from the brutal world of crime and power that Giovanni, her former ally, lover and father to her child. still controlled. 

But when Leonid, a ruthless warlord, kidnaps Arie and drags her back into a world of unspeakable cruelty, Athena is forced to confront her worst fears-and her past.

Teaming up with Giovanni once more to save their daughter, Athena embarks on a perilous mission to rescue her daughter from the fortress of a man who has twisted her into something unrecognizable. Time is running out, and Leonid's grip tightens as he prepares Arie to become a weapon in his empire.

In a race against time, Athena must summon all her strength and cunning to save her daughter, battling both enemies and her own heart. But in a world where loyalty is fragile and love is a dangerous game,
 
Athena will discover that not every queen can be saved... and that some battles are lost long before the war even begins.

Her reign may have ended, but her fight is far from over.

College? No, this was paradise. Three years filled with partying, not so secret underground drug-deals, and hot-headed men sliding into beds like snakes with no self-control. Things were different now. I wasn't that perfect, frill-wearing angel Mama thought would walk into the house ring-beared. So many things had changed, except for one. Him. He was a disease, one I couldn't get rid of no matter how hard I tried. Everytime he's near, I feel myself turn into something I've never seen before. Like there's something under my skin only he is capable of bringing out. He's manipulative, twisted, and completely wrong in every way. I hate him. Yet every night, from miles away, I find him in my dreams. Mikhail Volkov Fuck the patriarchy. Better yet, fuck everything and everyone. It was a game of cat and mouse, me chasing victories every single day. The Bratva's constant want for war was what kept the fuel in my blood, burning up into flames whenever my knuckles made contact with another opponent. In the end, I'm always the one left standing. This fire in my bones, I feel it burst into flames while every dark memory, thought and desire runs into my fists. So many medals, but only the people around me could see them. The real battle was against my head. And maybe, just maybe, I was afraid to admit that I had no chance in winning it. She makes it harder. An angel with wings to everyone else, yet a master at unveiling those devil's horns only when I'm near. There's this darkness, this fire, in the both of us. The only difference is, she's better at hiding it. She was gone, far away, yet there was this tether dowsed in fuel connecting us, one that only lit up when she came back. Every time she's near, I feel the limits surrounding my wrath being tested. Then again, rules are only made to be broken, right? Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*
