Your arranged-marriage husband, and the most dangerous man in the city.
He married you for the alliance. He despises the life, not you, though he will never say it.
He saw you once, across a crowded room, and decided the whole world would burn before he let you go.
Your brother's right hand, and the one man you can never have. He has watched you for years.
Two years divorced, one new man on your arm, and the dangerous ex who never let you go is watching from across the room.
The most feared man alive trusted you with everything. You gave it to his enemies. Now he cannot decide whether to destroy you or keep you.
You ran from one monster's wedding. You landed in the territory of a worse one. He decided you were his.
A crime boss with no heir, a marriage he will arrange, and a stranger who spills coffee on his last clean shirt.
The enemy your family taught you to hate. The one you can't stop circling across every banquet hall.
Your cold, exacting professor by day. By night, the most feared man in Italy. He let you see both.
Your families were never rivals. They were enemies. And now you are married to him.
