Two crime empires. One blood-soaked contract.
She is Valentina Moretti, the cold, calculating CEO of a luxury fashion conglomerate - a front for her family's international drug smuggling and high-end blackmail empire. After her father's death, she inherits not only the business but the vendettas that come with it. She's polished, lethal, and wears secrets like perfume.
He is Adrian Kovács, Eastern Europe's youngest billionaire tech mogul - who also happens to run an underground network that deals in illegal arms, cyberterrorism, and data warfare. His empire thrives on logic, silence, and control. He doesn't flinch when people die - only when control slips.
They've always hated each other - rival heirs raised on opposite sides of a bloody legacy. But now their empires are under threat from a third, rising enemy. To survive, they're forced into a business alliance sealed with a marriage contract.
Only problem?
Neither of them wants to submit.
Neither of them trusts the other.
And both of them plan to come out on top - even if they have to destroy each other first.
But as passion burns through the lies, and obsession starts to outweigh strategy, one of them will have to make the ultimate choice:
Love - or loyalty to the empire.

Is it possible to love one who has destroyed your life and taken everything dear from you? I think not... "You don't know who you're messing with, Rossini."

His expression changed from an infuriated one to a shocked one, finding truth in my words. I continued my sentence. "But I can." I pulled a gun out from my back pocket catching him by surprise. I aimed it right at his head, grinning. My fingers brushed around the trigger pulling it. "And that's why I always win." . . . . Hi, this is my second book but I'm still inexperienced with these kind of writing and stuff. All I know is that writing makes me feel happy and content, and I would love to make you happy by sharing this story with you. Please note that the first few chapters might be boring. But I wanted it to be that way, I wanted to show how the lead character changes herself differently just to adapt to her surroundings, how she is good and at the same time, a bad person.Complete
Kissed by Chaos
When fearless CEO Valentina Gomez clashes with ruthless Mafia Godfather Santino Costa, their rivalry ignites into a dangerous obsession. From enemies to lovers, their fiery hate turns into an all-consuming passion _________________ His fingers came to my chin, forcing me to look at him. "Queen," he murmured, his voice dark, "you wanted to die?" I didn't answer. I just stared at him. He smiled-cold, cruel. "I see. Your mouth isn't working now, is it?" My jaw tightened painfully. Then he leaned closer, his grip firm, his voice dropping to a whisper- "You want to die... but I won't let you." My breath hitched. "You don't get to die unless I allow it." For a second, my mind went blank. I just looked at him. Is he even in his right mind? His hold loosened just enough for me to breathe. My eyes drifted to the edge of the cliff. To the drop. His arms were still around me-loose... but there. I took a deep, shaky breath. "And if I decide," I said quietly, "that I don't care what you allow?" The satisfaction on his face disappeared. I pulled away from him. Without another word, I walked back to the car and got inside. ________ MATURE THEMES #9 feminine #22 lust 🥈 #34 rich #279 billionaire #90 hatelove #149 forced marriage #586 mafia #746 slowburn #203 hate #199 hope #28 sick #28 matureaudience #28 maturelanguage #151 couples #39 maturethemes #203 hatelove

This is the second draft of my book, and I completely rewrote it ✨ I really hope it's even better than the first and that you enjoy it 💖 If you see anything I could add, fix, or make better, please tell me-I take your feedback to heart 💌 When two powerful families unite in a marriage of convenience, sparks of strategy, tension, and forbidden emotion ignite. Estella Moretti is poised to inherit her father's empire, a woman sharp, ambitious, and fiercely independent. Malakai Moretti, a calculating heir to a world both luxurious and dangerous, enters her life as a husband-but also as a partner in business, power, and influence. Their marriage begins with formality and distance, a delicate dance of boundaries and unspoken curiosity. But as they navigate gala appearances, high-stakes meetings, and the merging of two vast empires, Estella discovers that Malakai's interest is more than strategic. Thoughtful gestures, secret letters, and quiet moments of care begin to unravel her defenses-though she is still learning how to trust, and to feel. With her brother Easton watching closely, protecting and guiding her, Estella must balance her growing reliance on Malakai with the lessons of her past. As the two of them emerge as a power couple, publicly unstoppable and privately close, one question remains: can a marriage built for business survive-and even thrive-when hearts are finally involved? A story of ambition, love, and loyalty, where trust is earned, boundaries are respected, and the strongest alliances are forged not only in power, but in the quietest moments between two people.Complete

CURRENTLY UNDER EDITING!! ________________________ I never believed in MONSTERS until I met him. Men like him don't walk in the light, they are not mentioned by name, their DEEDS are not chronicled, but their HANDIWORK is all around. It began with that one night, at the time, I thought nothing of it. I didn't know that was the night everything would change. The first time I entered his DOMAIN, it was an accident, I had no idea what I was stepping into. But the second time, however, was intentional. I returned for a job-nothing personal, just BUSSINESS. Something I could easily leave behind when it was over. How naive I was! His world is not one you can walk into and out of unscathed. It is built on unspoken agreements, lies that run too deep, and truths too dangerous for most to handle. And every moment spent here pulls me deeper into his orbit. I thought I could keep my distance, instead, I found myself getting closer to him, much closer than I'd ever planned or wanted to be but close enough to almost forget what he really is and that's the problem because deep down inside me still lies this knowledge of how it ends. If he knew why exactly I am here? He would not hesitate for a second before putting a bullet through my head! Walk away now while you can! I Can't! Somewhere along this twisted path of fate and fate's cruel jokes about control and power over others' lives, the ILLUSION began creeping into my mind. That somehow I had CONTROL over everything. That somehow I was PLAYING the game! But no! Never once I ever was the PLAYER but only just a PAWN in this game called BLOOD AND THRONE!! ____________________ ⚠️ WARNING This book contains mature themes and strong language.

"𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨𝐲." ~ Marriage was never for love-it was for legacy. A strategy. A performance. And for the Lombardis and the Morettis, it was the most calculated, showstopping alliance of the century. Roman Moretti, Don of the La Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, had been betrothed since her birth --matched to unite two empires under one crown. Hidden from the world, Angeline was raised to be the perfect wife. Groomed. Silenced. Controlled. She learned early that one misstep would strip her of everything-including her name. Everyone's first mistake? They underestimated her. Though no one had ever seen her, the world assumed the Lombardi Princess was a polished doll. Quiet. Disposable. Roman saw the marriage as a formality-another calculated step toward total dominance. He had no plans to love her. No plans to live with her. Just a wife on paper, tucked away from him elsewhere, summoned when needed for appearances. But everything changed the moment he saw her walking down the aisle. She was perfection. Untouchable. She would be his ruin, his weakness, his obsession, his motivation. His everything. But what if that had been her plan all along? Not everything buried stays dead. Not every identity is what it seems. In a world where saints become monsters and monsters are worshipped like gods, Angeline must decide what's worth saving: her bloodline, her love, or herself. ~ -HEA -18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller -No Cheating/OWD -DARK ROMANCE "OMYGOSH. This book was immaculate. I could NOT put it down at all. Every chapter was AMAZING, the writing is shakespears work and each chapter made me laugh, smile, cry so much and this whole thing was a rollercoaster of emotions." -@Sunfloweraate8Complete
