38 parts Complete MatureTwo empires. Two bloodlines. One inescapable desire.
Sofia Cruz isn't looking for a hero or a way out. As the cherished daughter of the American Cruz cartel boss, she thrives in the gilded, powerful world of her family. When the ruthless Italian Castiello rivals send their enforcer, Rio, to violently seize her, her comfortable life shatters-but her defiance does not.
She is a prize, a political tool, a message of war. But in the opulent, intimidating compound of the enemy, she becomes the headache of Nico Castiello.
Nico, the heir to the Castiello empire, is ordered to maintain control over the volatile captive. He's expecting resistance; he's not expecting a woman who runs her mouth like a weapon, whose fiery defiance never wavers, and who treats his dangerous world with contempt. The more she pushes, the harder he has to press, finding himself locked in an intense, involuntary battle of wills.
A forbidden spark ignites between the sworn enemies. Sofia finds Nico's dark control dangerously alluring, while Nico is captivated by the fearless woman who refuses to obey, challenging his authority at every turn. Their stolen moments become a desperate game of pushing limits, blurring the lethal line between duty and desire.
As the Castiello and Cruz families hurtle towards an explosive showdown, Nico and Sofia realize their attraction is the most dangerous kind of betrayal. To be together, they must dismantle the very empires they were born to inherit. But in this war where love is the ultimate act of treason, the price of freedom might be their very souls.
