Important Note: This book is a sequel to Phobia and cannot be read as a stand alone.
"Look at my wife, pretending she is single."
"I'm not your wife!" She snarled.
Rehan chuckled darkly and stepped forward, caging her against the wall, blasé to the party happening out in the hall.
"Step back."
"Make me," he leaned in, his dark grey eyes hooded with unquenched lust.
"I'll scream." She threatened.
"Do it." He dared. "With my name." A chilling smirk appeared on his face.
She scoffed. "You're impossible."
Rehan's eyes softened. "Not for you, Mea. Not for you."

When Valerius Siciliano, the infamous Tempter of Mafia fell in love, not as Valerius, but as Rehan Malik, the past he had tried to hide, let go of and bury six feet under, crawled back from dead, and caught him in the labyrinth of his own lies.
He has lost her.
His salvation, the only good in his life, no matter how bad she was for him.
She promised she will never let him go, she broke it. Probably, she forgot. How bad, he did not. And he'll make sure she remembers it too.
He is not something you can forget, he is a breathing calamity, a destruction, an incurable addiction.
He needs her back.
His Mea.
She belongs to him.
And hell will freeze over before he gives up on her.

A Girl bearing the last name of a powerful family and an empire passed from generation to generation.
Power is all that matters in this world, those who are starved of it are at the bottom of the hierarchy, but then there are those who bathe in it. Being born with a golden spoon in her mouth, Valeria has been accustomed to having people at her feet.
When certain events intervene with her trust in her family, Valeria begins to notice things the press failed to. As more and more clues emerge from the shadows, as more people become apart of this mess, Valeria makes it her mission to get to the bottom of all the lies she's grew up with.
Secrets.
Deception.
Illusions.
Would Valeria be able to push past the truth that her family was feeding her or will she herself take down anyone who gets in her way?

This is book 1 in the SERPENTS' series.This book contains extreme themes that may not be suitable for specific audiences, I've warned you. The love interest is violent, and the stereotypical Made Man, meaning this book will have non-consensual relationships, where the male lead is quite literally the incarnation of the devil himself.
