20 parts Ongoing Mature

In the shadowed streets of Naples, Dante Moretti reigns as the ruthless leader of Italy's most feared mafia. Men bow to him. Enemies fear him. Women dream of him. But the only woman he wants is the one who refuses to kneel. Fia is fire wrapped in silk-too stubborn to be tamed, too tempting to ignore. From the moment Dante locks eyes on her, she becomes his obsession... a prize he'll claim with a patience that wears thinner by the hour. Fia feels the pull she swore she'd resist-the dark magnetism in his voice, the dangerous promises in his touch. She craves him as much as she loves to provoke him, testing how far the mafia king will go to have her. Their attraction is a slow-burn inferno-possessive stares, stolen touches, and a tension that scorches the air between them. And when Dante finally decides to stop playing games, Fia will find out what it means to be hunted... and claimed.
