He was the Italian devil who ruled Naples with blood on his hands. I was the American daughter of the man who betrayed him.
When my father's debt ignited a war, Alessandro Moretti made me his bargaining chip. His bride. His peace offering.
I was supposed to hate him.
But every look burned, every touch destroyed the girl I used to be. Behind his cold eyes and cruel control, I saw a man haunted by scars deeper than his empire.
Now I wear his ring, sleep in his bed, and carry the weight of a vow that could either save us... or ruin us both.
Because in this marriage built on vengeance, love is the deadliest sin of all.

He wasn't always like this... was he? Was it a specific moment that led to where we are today? Was I too blind to see through his façade? Was I blind enough to overlook his sociopathic, sadistic tendencies? No answers, I have no answers. But it doesn't matter anymore. Neither of us are the same people we once were. It's too late for him and I. We can't turn around from the grave sins we've committed. He's the monster I loved once but now, he's the spawn of Satan himself. I was once the girl he supposedly loved but now... I'm just an object of his torments. "You really think you'll be able to leave me?" The sinister look in his eyes keep me alert. "No," I answer truthfully as the blood dripping down my skirt. "You will keep me alive till my heart bleeds for you. Until you break me completely and that's when I'll take my last breath that takes me away from the man who created hell on earth for me; and that's when I'll leave you, forever."Complete

How I Became Ms. Mafia
DARK ROMANCE SERIES VOL. 1 I didn't ask for this life. I was just a girl with blood on her shoes and grief in her chest the night my brother died in my arms. The city called it "crossfire."

My brother's killer... and the reason I can't sleep at night. I should hate him. And I do. But hate is a thin line-too thin. Because the deeper I dive into his world, the more I realize it isn't just vengeance pulling me toward him. It's something far more dangerous. He ruined me. He remade me. And soon, I'll stop being the girl chasing revenge. I'll become the woman who owns it. The one they'll call Ms. Mafia.Complete![Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/382983862-256-k806002.jpg)
Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]
They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*
