His Wicked Queen, His Ruinous Bride: Bound By Betrayal (Duet Book 1)

In a world where power is not inherited but earned through blood and fire, only two can rule-the King and the Queen. The underworld has seen only three women rise to the throne, and she is the third-the youngest, the most untouchable, the only one to challenge the King and win.

He became the youngest crowned Mafia King at 25, a force that no man dared to defy.
She became the youngest Mafia Queen at 24, proving that no man would ever stand above her.
Their rivalry didn't stop at the underworld-it bled into the world of power and wealth.

At 25, he built VoltX Technologies, rising as the world's most dominant businessman, holding the top spot for four years-until she struck again. At 24, she launched PANDORA JEWELS, creating an empire of luxury that shattered his reign, making her the first woman in history to dethrone him, taking the number-one rank he once held.

Now, fate binds them together in a marriage neither of them wanted-but neither of them can escape.

She lays down the rules: separate rooms, separate lives, and no interference.
He has only one goal: to dismantle every rule she sets.

But their battle has never been about submission-it has always been about who can stand tall without falling first.

He was the only man who ever got close enough to break her.
She was the only woman who ever pushed him to his limits.
Their love is not soft-it is a war, a fire, a game where both are players and neither can afford to lose.

In the end, love will not save them.
But maybe-just maybe-it will destroy them both.
