"You will marry me."
"I would rather die."
"That can be arranged."
----
Catalina Sofia Reyes was never meant to be part of her family's business.
Shielded from violence by her father and adored by three overprotective brothers, she lived her life as the untouchable daughter of one of Mexico's most powerful cartel leaders.
Until her family made a mistake that placed a debt on their heads.
A debt the Bratva refused to forgive.
Instead of blood or territory, they demanded something far more personal.
Her.
Forced into marriage with Mikhail Ivanovich Petrov - the cold, calculating heir to a Russian empire that has been at war with her family for years - Catalina becomes a living payment for a crime she did not commit.
She refuses to be his wife.
He refuses to release what he is owed.
Taken into a world where loyalty is enforced and weakness is fatal, Catalina refuses to become a symbol of surrender. She keeps her distance, her anger, and her allegiance to the family that traded her away.
Mikhail does not want her love. He wants control, stability, and a living reminder that the Reyes cartel owes him.
But power shifts inside a marriage built on debt.
As Catalina learns the rules of the Bratva and Mikhail begins to treat her as something more than a payment, their alliance becomes dangerous to everyone around them - especially the families who are still waiting for war.
Because if the cartel princess and the Bratva heir choose each other, the balance of power between two empires will change forever.
And in their world, love is not just a risk.
It is a threat.
