A 'little' girl from poverty vanishes into thin air one day, and hardly no one seems to notice. After being abducted and 'broken' in, she's sold to a ruthless Syndicate leader and his wife. Now the little Ill-mouthed preteen must grow accustom to the mafias ways or escape before its too late. Vincenzo and Alessandra Lucchese had been successful in life. They have four boys, a successful mafia career and they're the most feared in the world by those who know of them. But with their sons all grown and married, they couldn't help but yearn for another child. A little girl this time, perhaps. It was devastating for them to learn of Lucia's inability to conceive and carry full term for a fifth time, so when a Cuban-American broker heard of this tragedy, he jumped straight into action in an attempt to get moved up. Ellie Carter was born with a rare form of bone cancer, which prevents her from growing; leaving her at 3'9. She lived in a one bedroom house with her mother and a series of her mothers boyfriends. Although her mother was a drug addict and a sex worker she cared for her and always did her best to keep her fed, she hardly had the means to do so or the actual ability to be a mother.

"Your clothes. They bother me. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐟𝐟." ~ Marriage was not for love -it was for business. It was a strategic move that one had to make wisely. For the Lombardis and the Morettis, this marriage was the most calculated, showstopping move of the century. Roman Moretti, the Don of the Italian Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, the only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, have been betrothed since her birth and were matched to be the bridge that reigned in the two families' supremacy. Hidden away from the world and never seen by any outsider's eye, Angeline was molded and perfected into being the ideal wife since she took her first breath. Controlled, silenced, and undermined, Angeline has known her place in the world from a young age and understands that the second she makes a mistake, she will be defiled and used in any way someone sees fit. But everyone else's first mistake about her is the most helpful: they underestimate her. Even though no one has met her, everyone thinks of the Lombardi Princess being useless and an object for show. Roman sees this marriage as a necessity but not a vital part of his life. He is already feared by all and has countries at his feet; he knows no limits to his control and has men terrified to meet his eyes. To him, Angeline is a means to an end and only there to secure what he already has. He plans to keep her away in a separate house, miles away from his own, and only make appearances with her when it's necessary. But all of his plans change when he sees her for the first time, walking down the aisle towards him. She is pure perfection and knows that she will be his end. His every weakness. His every obsession. His every motivation. But what if that was Angeline's plan all along? ~ "You, my Angel, have 𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 me for anyone else." ~ -HEA -Mature scenes/18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller/action -Strong FMC -No Cheating/OWD

"Touch me again and I'll slit your throat with that knife." She eyes the butter knife that's on the clean wood counter. "Kick me again and I'll fuck that damn throat that's only good for deep throating a dick.." I grit between my teeth as I eye her. As her eyes widen. Rage flashing through her whole frame as she grasps her fists. Stepping closer to me. "If you think I'll bleed for you when I finally make you feel like a man just because of your own pleasure, then you're fucking out of it. Find another starved bitch to use. Puppet.." ------------------------ Celiné Aucliar has always had it rough. After her mother had committed suicide when Celiné was only a child her father became ruthless. He decided to drink his life away, not caring about his own children he had and even worse. He left his own Mafia. The Italian mafia.
