Mafia Queen is nice
She was a woman who held her country above her own life, a patriot in a world consumed by greed. But those around her worshipped wealth over honor, and in their ruthless pursuit, they broke her-mocked her, betrayed her, and forced her into the darkness they thrived in. What they didn't realize was that they weren't creating a victim; they were awakening a storm. In the shadows, she rose-not as a fallen soul, but as a queen of the underworld, a phantom unseen by the world. "When a woman seeks revenge, even the devil takes notes."
