XANDER
Xai Joaquín was born into blood. The only daughter of Alejandro Joaquín, head of one of Spain's most feared mafia families, she grew up with knives in her hands and four overprotective brothers at her side. Badass, sharp-tongued, and scarred - both inside and out - she's no stranger to violence. But Mexico left her with more than a wound across her eye. It left her with holes in her memory. Now, back in Spain, her name is whispered in the shadows: la princesa de la mafia. She is untouchable... until the Italians arrive. Xander Acroyed - the ruthless heir to the Italian mafia - remembers the girl who once laughed beside him in orchards. The girl who was promised to him. The girl who now looks at him with cold eyes and no recognition. What begins as betrayal and blood soon tangles into something darker: an arranged marriage neither asked for, a dangerous game of power, and the slow unraveling of a bond both of them are afraid to claim. Because Xai may have forgotten their past... but Xander never did. ...................................................................................... Xai: "Step closer, and I'll cut you." "Sempre con il coltello... You always did hide behind steel." (Always with the steel) "¿Siempre tan arrogante? You think knowing my name gives you power over me?" "No, princesa.

From enemies to lovers, their fiery hate turns into an all-consuming passion _________________ His fingers came to my chin, forcing me to look at him. "Queen," he murmured, his voice dark, "you wanted to die?" I didn't answer. I just stared at him. He smiled-cold, cruel. "I see. Your mouth isn't working now, is it?" My jaw tightened painfully. Then he leaned closer, his grip firm, his voice dropping to a whisper- "You want to die... but I won't let you." My breath hitched. "You don't get to die unless I allow it." For a second, my mind went blank. I just looked at him. Is he even in his right mind? His hold loosened just enough for me to breathe. My eyes drifted to the edge of the cliff. To the drop. His arms were still around me-loose... but there. I took a deep, shaky breath. "And if I decide," I said quietly, "that I don't care what you allow?" The satisfaction on his face disappeared. I pulled away from him. Without another word, I walked back to the car and got inside. ________ MATURE THEMES #9 feminine #22 lust 🥈 #34 rich #279 billionaire #90 hatelove #149 forced marriage #586 mafia #746 slowburn #203 hate #199 hope #28 sick #28 matureaudience #28 maturelanguage #151 couples #39 maturethemes #203 hatelove

Sarcasm drips from her voice as she glares at him, hands cuffed to bed. His mouth curves.
