A dark Mafia romance of survival, vengeance, and the quiet power of healing.
Lyssa Celeste Vaelora has known nothing but silence.
Born into a house where love was a weapon and cruelty was law, her life became a maze of bruises, broken bones, and fear too deep to scream. For five years, she endured alone-after her older brother was taken to safety. Lyssa had been too young.
When she finally calls for help-broken, bleeding, barely breathing-it isn't Lucien who answers.
It's Damien.
And it's Damien who rescues her.
Now, hidden within the Black Family estate, Lyssa must learn to live in a world that doesn't hurt. Surrounded by the people who would burn the world to protect her-her brother, the Mafia family that took him in, and Damien, whose silence holds more affection than she's ever known-she begins to learn what it means to feel.
And he'll wait as long as it takes...
Because the moment she whispered his name,
he knew he was hers.

Silk and Scars
They took me when I was three. Since then, I've forgotten what safety feels like... what love is supposed to be. Every scar on my body tells a story-none of them with a happy ending. By day, I protect my little brothers. By night, I fight to silence the screams echoing in my head. There's no escape from this house. Not yet. But I haven't given up. Not completely. Sometimes, I wonder... What if there's more to my past than I know? What if I wasn't meant to live like this-trapped, broken, forgotten? And what if... just maybe... Someone out there still remembers me? Someone who could love me enough to bring me back to life?
