25 parts Ongoing Lila Valenti never imagined marrying into the ruthless mafia, Raeland Moretti would be anything more than a business deal. But her husband, Raeland, is more than just a dangerous man-he's a mystery wrapped in cold stares and darker secrets. Determined to break through his icy exterior, Valenti embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the man behind the walls.
"I don't need your pity," Raeland growls, his voice sharp and cutting. "I don't need anything from you."
Valenti stands firm, meeting his icy stare. "I'm not offering pity, Raeland. I'm offering a chance. To let someone in."
But in the underworld of power, loyalty, and bloodshed, trust is the rarest currency. Raeland's world is one of danger and deception, where letting someone close could mean death. As old enemies resurface and the stakes rise, Valenti must decide if her desire to reach him is worth the risk.
"You think you can fix me?" Raeland's voice is low, bitter. "You don't know the half of it."
"And I don't need to," Valenti replies, her voice steady. "But I know what it's like to be alone. And I think we could be something-if you let me in."
In this high-stakes game of love, power, and survival, their connection might be the only thing that saves them-or destroys them both.
