Julia is a natural at her trade. She made herself a promise very early on that she would never be helpless again. She somehow gets herself into many assassination jobs and by the time she's nineteen, she's known all around the world as the best of the best. Everyone wants her, but she finds herself facing a very intriguing offer from the man who started her out on her path and she just can't turn it up. She retires just before her twentieth birthday and takes him up on his offer. Ace doesn't know any of this and thinks that she's simply another pretty face that his father is trying to set up with him. He's so sure that he can hate her but he finds himself disturbed by how hard it is. He finds her charm and intellect quite unnerving but quickly finds his walls crumbling around him. What will happen once they realize just how hard it is to stay away from each other?

Like in the deck of cards, the Ace outranks the King-and so does Ace Salvatore. A Greek-Italian mafia leader feared by all, Ace is a man of unspeakable cruelty, a calculated mind ruling an empire built on blood and terror. His face is a mystery- those who've seen it are long gone, silenced by his wrath. Manipulative, controlling, psychotic, and untouchable, he rules his empire with an iron fist, his past buried beneath layers of bloodshed and regret. His obsession with power and control leaves no room for weakness-not in himself, not in his enemies, and certainly not in others. When a desperate debtor can't repay what's owed, he offers something unexpected to settle the score: a little girl. Ace accepts the deal, not out of need, but because curiosity flickers in his mind- a curiosity he loathes. Yet the little girl is more than just an innocent. She unknowingly awakens ghosts of Ace's past- a life of betrayal, loss, and secrets he swore to bury. Even monsters have scars. The darkness that shaped him, the wounds he carries, and the revenge that fuels his every decision begin to resurface. The past never truly stays buried. As their worlds collide, her presence becomes both his salvation and his torment. But as the past catches up, threatening to destroy everything, Ace must face a harrowing choice: cling to the monster he's become, or risk everything for the one thing he never thought he'd have- a chance at redemption. Will his darkness consume her and change her? Or will she destroy him? #First book got removed by wattpad so I am updating it again.
