"He owned an empire.
But she became his greatest obsession."
Aurora Bennett is a twenty-two-year-old Fine Arts student whose world revolves around colors, canvases, and dreams. She lives a simple life in New York, focusing on her studies and the future she has carefully planned for herself.
Love was never her priority.
Danger was never part of her story.
Or so she thought.
Alessandro De Luca is a name feared throughout the criminal underworld. At twenty-eight, he is a billionaire, a king, and one of the most powerful mafia leaders in America. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, he rules his empire with an iron fist and shows mercy to no one.
To the world, he is a successful businessman.
To his enemies, he is a nightmare.
And to Aurora...
He is the beginning of everything she should fear.
When a chance encounter throws their worlds together, Alessandro becomes fascinated by the mysterious girl with paint-stained fingers and fearless eyes. What starts as curiosity soon turns into something far more dangerous.
Obsession.
The more he learns about Aurora, the more secrets begin to unravel. Secrets connected to her past. Secrets connected to powerful enemies. Secrets that threaten to destroy everything he has built.
But Aurora is hiding truths of her own.
Truths buried beneath years of lies.
Truths that could ignite a war between the most dangerous people in the country.
As betrayals surface and blood is spilled, Aurora finds herself trapped in a world she never knew existed-a world of power, revenge, crime, and deadly secrets.
A world ruled by Alessandro De Luca.
The Mafia King.
Now enemies are closing in.
Trust is becoming impossible.
And the line between love and obsession is growing thinner with every passing day.
Because Alessandro has never learned how to let go of something that belongs to him.
And once the Mafia King decides he wants something...
There is no escape.
