Scarlet Vow

Valentina has always been the dutiful daughter, yet her father never loved her. She hates their world, where women are treated like pawns, married off only to secure political alliances. Her father never saw her as a daughter, only as a burden. The one thing he despised most about her was her dark complexion. To their world, she was considered defective.

But one mistake changed her life forever. The mistake of falling in love with a gardener, someone far beneath her family's status.

When her brothers found out, they brutally killed him right in front of her eyes on her birthday. That day, something inside her died with him.

Soon after, her father forced her into marriage with Alejandro Bellini, the ruthless underboss of the Spanish mafia, having a one-year-old daughter of his own. She agreed without even seeing his face, only hearing whispers of his cold and merciless reputation.

But the real shock comes when Valentina finally sees him for the first time.

Both she and her family were also hiding a dangerous truth from him. A truth that could destroy everything. Valentina doesn't know how he will react when he discovers it.

She is carrying another man's child.
