Chapter 1 Lorenzo POV

The room was heavy with a scent of lust and sweat. I heard her moaning beneath me, her body responding to every touch, every kiss, every flick of my tongue on her skin. I could see her thighs quiver as my fingers walked deep inside her. She gulped, aching her back, pulling me closer with needy hands.

"More Lorenzo," she whispered breathlessly, her voice filled with desire.

I smirked, trailing my lips down to her breast, sucking one into my mouth. Her body writhed, desperate for more, but even as I pulled her closer to the edge, there was nothing in me that could follow. It was always the same.

I slide my fingers deeper. A slick warmth coated my hands. Her breath became faster. A finger digging into my back as she moaned louder. Her release until she finally shattered beneath me.

Her moan echoed in the room, but I barely felt anything. It was like I was watching the scene from outside my body detached- hollow. She collapsed on the bed trembling.

But inside me there was just nothing. I sat up, my back to her as I reached for my pants. "That was amazing."She breathed beneath me.

I didn't respond. I just couldn't. What was I supposed to say? That it wasn't enough? That it never was? No matter how many women I had, no matter how many times I tried to bury myself in them, it just didn't change the fact that I couldn't impregnate any of them.

I clenched my jaw, pulling on my shirt. Just as a knock sounded on the door, I had grown frustrated. "What the hell do you want?." I barked, irritation in my voice, unmistakable.

The door creaked open and Enzo stepped inside, his expression calm as usual. "Your grandmother called, sir. She wants you at the office."

I turned to glare at him, fists clenching at my side. "Are you out of your damn mind? Can't you see I'm in the middle of something?."

Enzo didn't flinch. He never did. He was used to my temper, used to the chaos I strived in. "She said it's very urgent."

I growled under my brace, barely holding back my rage. Of course she had called. My grandma was the only person who ever had any control over me. The woman I pretended to be the perfect grandson for. The woman who thought I was a respectable businessman. She didn't know the truth, that I was a mafia lord, feared by everyone and who crossed my path.

I turned back to the woman in the bed, her eyes wide with confusion and impatience. "Get dressed," I said flatly. "We are done here."

She huffed, clearly annoyed, but smart enough not to argue. As she gathered her clothes, I shot Enzo another glare. "I'll deal with you later,"

Enzo nodded without a word. Stepping out of the room, I was burning with frustration, not because of the interruption, but because I knew no matter how much I pretended, I couldn't be what my grandmother wanted me to be.

She had no idea that the heir she hoped for would never come, because I was broken in many ways she could never imagine. But she wasn't the only one who didn't know. No one knew.

The answer was, I was Lorenzo, the ruthless mafia lord, feared by many, respected by many. I built an empire with my bare hands, ruling the underworld with blood and fire. People knew me as a man who could make anyone disappear with a single word. But the power that controlled me was nothing when I was alone.

As I drove to my grandmother's office, the weight of my double life pressed down on me like a ton of bricks. My grandma seemed to believe I was a businessman, so unrespectable, who could carry on the family legacy. She had no idea that I was really, she had no idea what I really was, a killer, a monster.

When I arrived at my grandmother's office, I felt a smile kissing her on the cheek. "What was going on, Grandma?."

She smiled, her face lighting up at the sight of me, and for a moment, the guilt ground at me. "Lorenzo, I've been thinking," she says softly. " I want to see you settle down. Give me a great grandchild before I go."

Her words hit me like a punch to the gut. A child, a family, the only thing I couldn't give her. I forced a smile, running a hand through my hair. "Grandma, you know I'm not ready for that."

She frowned, her eyes filled with worry. "Lorenzo, you are the last of the family line. You need to carry all the family's lineage and name. Please, for me."

I swallowed hard, my chest tightening with guilt. How could I explain to her that it was impossible, that I was broken in a way that I couldn't fix? I couldn't, so I did what I always did. "I would think about it,"I said, my voice tight, "I promise."

She smiled, satisfied, but all I felt was dread. As I left the office, the weight of my expectation crushed me. I needed to clear my head, to forget, even if just for a few hours. I headed straight to the masked club, the only place that ever made me feel anything close to calm. The light, the music, the women was the chaos I strived in.

But tonight, even though that wasn't enough, the frustration boiled inside me. A dangerous storm, waiting to explode. I drowned in drinks, alcohol drinks, watching the women dance, their bodies moving to the rhythm.

Normally, I would have taken one of them upstairs by now, and tried to lose myself in the destruction of the thought. But tonight, it was different. The emptiness inside of me was too loud, even now.

And no matter how many drinks I had, no matter how much I tried to forget, I couldn't shake the truth. I could never be the man my grandmother wanted, and no amount of power control or bloodshed could change that. As I sat there and drowned in my thoughts, I couldn't help but wonder how long before everything I'd built came crashing down.

But soon, I looked to my side, and my eyes met with the beautiful maiden who was wearing a mask. I l stared at her from where I was seated. Her body was glued to the black dress she was wearing. "Very sexy body." I smirked, grabbing the wine.

"I think I will need her for tonight." I smiled.

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.

I'm a moaning mess as Antonio slams into me from behind. His hips hit me hard, and each deep thrust sends shockwaves through my body. My breasts bounce with every movement, my eyes roll back, and I moan his name without control. The pleasure he gives me is overwhelming-I can't hold it in. I feel my walls tighten around his thick length. The pressure builds fast, and then- I explode around him, my orgasm tearing through me. He groans loud and deep as he releases inside me, his hot seed spilling into me in thick pulses. Just when I think he's done, his grip shifts. He turns me over and lays me flat on the bed. His dark eyes stare into mine for a moment, filled with raw hunger. I glance down- He's still hard. Before I can react, he grabs my wrists, pins me down, and pushes himself inside me again. He fills me completely. My hips rise on instinct, meeting his rhythm. Our bodies move together, locked in a wild, uncontrollable dance. "You're fucking sweet," he groans, his voice rough and breathless. "I can't get enough of you... not after that night, Sol," he growls, slamming into me harder. The force of his words and his thrusts make my body shake. "Come for me," he commands, his voice low and full of heat. And just like that, my body trembles. Waves of pleasure crash over me. I cry out, shaking with the force of my orgasm. "Mine," he growls again, louder this time. His voice is feral, wild, like a beast claiming what belongs to him. The sound sends a shiver down my spine. *** Solene was betrayed, humiliated, and erased by Rowan Brook, the man she once called husband, Solene is left with nothing but her name and a burning hunger for revenge. She turns to the one man powerful enough to destroy the Brooks family from within: Rowan's estranged and dangerous uncle, Antonio Rodriguez. He's ruthless. A playboy who never sleeps with the same woman twice. But when Solene walks into his world, he doesn't just break the rules, he creates new ones just for her. What begins as a calculated game quickly spirals into obsession, power plays, and secrets too deadly to stay buried. Because Solene isn't just anyone's ex... she's the woman they should've never underestimated. Can she survive the price of revenge? Or will her heart become the next casualty? And when the truth comes out, will Antonio still choose her... or destroy her?
