The Forgotten Queen

As Vincenzo's eyes lock with Ava's, a cold smirk plays on his lips. His voice, low and commanding, cuts through the silence.

"Get ready to burn everything you've known, Ava. The world you've been trapped in is about to crumble, and you'll rise from the ashes-if you have the strength to stand with me."

His gaze sharpens, his tone laced with danger.

"Your past doesn't define you. It's time to rewrite your story-but there's no going back."

Ava's breath catches. His presence is overwhelming, yet something within her stirs-fear, anticipation, maybe even hope.

For the first time, someone sees her. Not as the weak daughter, not as the burdened sibling, but as someone with power.

Vincenzo leans in, voice almost a whisper. "Can you handle it? Because once you step into this world, it's not about survival anymore. It's about domination."

Memories of belittlement and neglect flash before her. The years of being pushed aside. But his words ignite something deep within-a fire longing to break free.

"I'm tired of being nothing," she murmurs. "Tired of being what they want me to be."

For a fleeting second, Vincenzo's gaze softens before the ruthless mafia king returns.

"Then prove it."

Her eyes meet his with quiet defiance. She may not be ready for the storm he offers, but she's done waiting in the shadows.

"I'm ready," she declares. "They'll regret underestimating me."

Vincenzo smirks, dark amusement flickering in his eyes.

"Good. Because once we're done, they won't just regret it-they'll fear it."

And just like that, Ava Marino steps into the fire. Whether she burns or rises-only time will tell.

Get ready for a tale of passion, obsession, and betrayal-where love is both salvation and destruction. Secrets unravel, hearts collide, and past sins refuse to stay buried, will they surrender-or risk everything?
