Title: The Devil and The Dove
Dante Moretti-the mafia's deadliest enforcer-walks into a building filled with armed men,
knowing only one will walk out alive. His target? The rival syndicate that made the mistake of
taking her.
Gunfire erupts. Blades flash. Bodies fall. By the time he reaches the last door, the walls are
painted red, and he's barely broken a sweat. He steps inside, crimson eyes gleaming, and
smirks.
"Well, hello there, Tiger.

Bound, bruised, but still burning with defiance, she meets his gaze.
"You made a deal with the devil,
" he murmurs, untying her restraints.
"And the devil always
collects.
"
She smirks back.
"And my black dove rescues me once again.
