In the darkest corners of the city, where hope is as scarce as clean air, a young girl stands alone, her gaze lost in the smog-choked sky. The oppressive heat and grime of the slums stretch endlessly around her. 

Beside her, a voice breaks the silence: "What do you plan to do?"

With a light chuckle and a hint of amusement, she responds, "Change the game. But first, I need to play it."

In a city where the glittering façades of skyscrapers mask the squalor of the slums, a young girl named Viviana emerges from the depths of poverty. In a world where mafias and government figures clash for power, Viviana's past drives her to seek strength and control. Determined to rise above her circumstances, she must navigate a treacherous landscape of elite politics, dangerous alliances, and hidden agendas.

Follow Viviana as she defies the odds, confronts corruption, and rewrites the rules of a world where survival is for the fittest. Join her on a journey beneath the surface, where every move can mean the difference between domination and destruction.

Are you ready to delve into the shadows and uncover the true power lurking beneath?

Born into the deadly business, the seven sibling have learnt what it takes to survive in such a cruel world filled with people who are money hungry, and desperate for revenge. In the mafia world, blood does not run thicker than water, or the other way around. Trust is not something people in the mafia business understand, with people quick to stab you in the back at any opportunity to gain money, power and notoriety. Eleanor Johnson knew from a young age how dangerous her world was, but no matter how much she wanted to leave, she couldn't. Her father gained the reputation of being cold and heartless throughout the mafia world, putting a big target on her gangs back. Now at age nineteen, she has blossomed into a deadly assassin with killer looks. Most of Eleanor's attacks were secretive and skilled, which managed to fool a lot of her rival gangs who dismissed her as a fragile girl with a pretty face. However her plan to stay under the radar as the pure girl was uncovered, when a plan turned sour, exposing her to the dangers of gangs who wanted revenge for the damage she had caused through different territories. With new rivals on the gangs back, they become out-numbered by men who want them dead, more specifically Eleanor, and in a desperate attempt to keep the family safe, they join troops with an ally gang named 'the fierce mob.' Eleanor knew that this business was going to end in a painful death, and through the years she coached herself into being okay with it, but what she couldn't prepare for was the devious man she was willing to die for.

••••• His hand roughly grabs my chin, and my face is pulled closer to his as his lips move towards my ear, his fingers brushing a strand of my hair back. "You have to clean it up now," he murmurs, and I hum as I shuffle closer, wiping the frosting away with my finger. He watches me as I lick the frosting off my finger and push it into my mouth, wrapping my lips around it as I pull it out with a smirk tugging at my lips. "Did you enjoy that?" I whisper in his ear, and his eyes darken in response. The only response I needed. ••••• Diana La Rossi was given her first target at the age of 20, after spending her whole life in isolation. The mission opens up a ticket to her freedom, a ticket to her exploring the world beyond the glass panels from her room, but also opening a path to new opportunities, such as love. But she is not alone, and suddenly the heirs of the best mafias in Italy have to chase their target, either together or alone. But Diana doesn't only meet new friends and live her life in danger but excitement, she also finds a new family and love, with a past that was buried too deep.
