Betrayal cuts deeper than a blade, yet the heart still yearns for the one who caused it.

Lorenzo Moretti is a ruthless mafia boss, hardened by betrayal and a dark past he keeps buried. His world of power, danger, and violence is shaken when he crosses paths with Caterina romano, a naive and innocent woman unaware of the deadly game she's stepping into. As their paths intertwine, Enzo's cold heart begins to thaw, but the price of falling for her could be more than either of them can bear. With betrayal lurking at every corner, Cat must navigate a world she doesn't understand, while Enzo battles his own demons. In a deadly world where trust is rare and love is a weakness, survival becomes the only law.

Isabella Rodriguez is the stubborn and fierce detective with the desire to bring justice to those who have been wronged. Despite the male-dominated field she works in, she quickly rose through the ranks to become the dedicated and ambitious detective she is today. She is an independent and strong 25-year-old with the new mission to hunt down and arrest a high-ranking mafia organisation that has been haunting and terrorizing her town since she was a young girl. However, due to her blind trust in people she can often have a clouded judgement and see the best in the worst kind of people, this is how she stumbles upon the cold and calculating Dante Romano. Oblivious to the fact that Dante is a high-ranking member of the organization she is haunting down, she confides in him throughout the investigation, making his job a whole lot easier. Dante Romano, the 6'5, relentless killer would burn the world down for those he loves. Despite his slight resentment to his parents, he would kill to ensure their safety. Dante knows he must kill his dear Isabella... But that doesn't stop him from getting closer to her. Creating a bond. Trust. Love? Dante chooses to chase the soaring feeling his heart feels whenever he's with his first true love, slowly feeling more guilty of the thought of killing her. As Isabella gets closer to finding the only people he has ever considered as family, the pressure to kill her gets worse. But what will he choose? Love or Duty?

𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐄 is pretty sure her new neighbor is a serial killer. What else could explain his antisocial behavior, creepily minimalistic apartment, and that inhumanly emotionless demeanor? Not to mention the bloody body parts that have started showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life. But an emotionally scarred gangster on the run -- riding the brink of insanity and followed by a host of trouble -- is a lot more than she could've bargained for. 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐎 𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐎 is beyond redemption. Capo of the Romano crime family, the sociopathic Prince of Chicago, hell wrapped in a designer suit. He exemplifies cold precision and perfect control. His job has always come easily to him for the very same reason that his name is feared widely: he's incapable of emotion. But something horrifying and sinister is beginning to happen to him. And it turns out that pesky slipping sanity is the least of his concerns. Because his new neighbor is a ray-of-sunshine wildcard dipped in beauty like he's never seen, and she won't leave him alone. Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him. Much less a new threat looming on the horizon. Or love. Especially not that. ♛ Deviant Prince is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance. WARNING: this story gets very dark. You must check the CW in the intro. [ Book 2 in the Romano Brotherhood Series | COMPLETED ✔ ]
