Krishna Lawrence Ivanov, the youngest member of a ruthless Russian mafia family. She was never meant to rule, but fate has never played by the rules. Bound by blood to a family that thrives in the shadows, she walks the fine line between duty and desire, power and ruin.
In Manila, a man challenges the walls she's built. In the heart of her enemy, a liar guards her with unwavering devotion. And in the empire she could claim, a throne awaits-if she is willing to stand alone.
But in a world where loyalty is a currency and betrayal is inevitable, the question is not who she will choose-it's what she is willing to sacrifice.

At seven, she was nothing more than a child in white lace, her hand pressed into his as their families sealed a deal with rings and blood. He was eleven-already carved from stone, already the heir to a throne built on power, violence, and fear. Neither of them understood the weight of the promise that bound them. But years later, that promise has returned to claim them both. She is no longer a little girl. She has grown into a mafia princess-reckless, untamed, with fire in her veins and defiance in her tongue. He is no longer a boy. He is the ruthless leader of an empire, a man whose word is law and whose hands are stained with blood. They are opposites, destined to clash. She hates his control, his cold indifference, his unyielding dominance. He despises her rebellion, her refusal to bend, the chaos she brings into his ordered world. Yet hate is not the only thing that burns between them. Beneath every furious argument lies an attraction as sharp and dangerous as the knives hidden under their skin. Every glance dares the other closer, every touch threatens to ignite the very fire they're both trying to smother. But in their world, love is a weakness. Betrayal is a death sentence. And their marriage-forced, bound in blood and tradition-is less a union and more a war. Still, amidst the smoke of gunfire, whispered lies, and enemies circling like wolves, a brutal truth rises: They may destroy each other. Or they may burn the whole world down together. #1 in arrange #1 in naughty #1 in unholy #1 in mafiastory
