[[2x WATTPAD FEATURED STORY]] Leandra Sienna Macheras is the daughter of the city's Godfather, the leader of the most powerful mob family in town. But her world is shaken as a new criminal organization, known as The Hydra, rises to challenge her family's dominance. Headed by five men who quickly rose in the underground ranks, The Hydra is determined to dismantle the Macheras' empire and rebuild the city under their rule. What they don't expect is the undeniable pull of Sienna, whose allure becomes a weapon none of them can resist. As Sienna begins to see the dark truth behind her father's regime and confronts the desires she's long suppressed, she and her friends switch sides-teaming up with The Hydra to overthrow the old guard. Together, they set out to remake the city's criminal underworld... and enjoy every dangerous, thrilling moment of it. This is mainly a reverse harem, but it's not the sole focus. It's a character-driven story of moral grayness. It also delves into themes of human trafficking, abuse, sexual violence, and others (see warnings below). Yet it also explores friendships, families, and LGBTQ+ scenes and storylines. So prepare for one hell of a ride.
