She became his wife to repay a debt. He planned to destroy her to avenge a blood-soaked past. At fifteen, Rose life was quietly sold off by the man she trusted most-her father. At twenty two, she's forced to stand at the altar beside Alessandro De Luca, a ruthless Italian mafia boss with a reputation as cold as the steel he commands. To the world, it's a marriage of convenience. To Alessandro, it's a slow-burn punishment. She's the daughter of the man who owes him billions. A pawn in a game of vengeance. But what Rose doesn't know is that her father once committed an unforgivable crime-and her mother died keeping the truth buried. Alessandro vowed to shatter whoever destroyed his family. He never planned to fall for the enemy's daughter. Now, as secrets unravel and betrayal closes in, Rose is kidnapped by the very man who raised her-a desperate move to keep the truth buried forever. Trapped between a husband who burns with revenge and a father who thrives on lies, Rose must fight to survive the war ignited in her name. Because in the mafia... love is just another weapon. And the most dangerous man she's ever met is her husband.

Chapter 1 Alessandro bride

Rose clutched the thin silk of her nightdress like a lifeline, her fingers trembling as she sat on the edge of the bed. Her pulse drummed loud in her ears.

Three hours ago, she had stood before an altar. A bride in ivory. A pawn in a game she didn't understand.

Now, she was alone in a mansion soaked in silence, in a bedroom far too lavish for someone who felt like a prisoner.

His bedroom.

The man she had just married-Alessandro De Luca was no husband. He was a shadow wrapped in tailored suits and a name that made grown men shiver.

He had left after the wedding, without a word. No explanation. No glance her way.

And now... he was back.

She heard the heavy click of his shoes before she saw him, broad shoulders cutting through the dim light as he entered the room like he owned it. Owned her.

Not a word.

Not a look.

He walked past her, shedding his jacket and undoing his cufflinks with clinical detachment. She watched as he disappeared into the bathroom, the sound of running water soon filling the silence.

She didn't breathe. Not properly.

When he reemerged, damp hair slicked back and a towel slung low around his hips, he moved with quiet, predatory calm. He opened a drawer, and what he pulled out made her blood run cold.

Protection. A handful. More than necessary.

Her eyes widened. "Alessandro..."

He didn't meet her gaze. His voice was flat, void of emotion. "Lie down. Flat on your back."

The command shattered the stillness like a slap.

Her body stiffened. "W-what? What do you mean?" The fear in her voice betrayed her.

He finally looked at her, cold eyes sharp as blades. "I don't like repeating myself. Lie down. Now."

"No. No, I'm not doing that. I'm not an animal," she said, voice cracking but firm.

His jaw clenched. A dangerous stillness settled over him. Then came the quiet, lethal reply:

"Perhaps cuffing you would be more effective."

He turned to the drawer again, searching for something she didn't want to see.

Panic surged. Rose shot off the bed and bolted for the door. It was locked.

Her breath caught in her throat.

Then his phone rang. Sharp. Urgent. He froze, the sound slicing through the room.

He glanced at the screen, then answered in Italian-his voice suddenly ice and fire.

"Che cazzo hai detto?" (What the fuck did you just say?)

She watched as his entire posture changed. Whatever he was being told... it wasn't good. His grip on the phone tightened like he wanted to crush it.

More harsh words. A low curse. And then he hung up.

Slowly, Alessandro turned toward her. That unreadable, terrifying smirk curved his lips.

"Calm down, principessa. Not tonight, it seems. But soon. I've waited seven years to marry you. You're mine now. Mine."

He dressed swiftly, his fury barely contained beneath his skin. Then he stormed out, the door slamming behind him like a gunshot.

Rose stood in the center of the room, heart pounding, her body rigid with fear and rage.

She clutched her chest, as if to still the shaking.

That man... was a devil wrapped in charm and cruelty.

But she would never give him the satisfaction of breaking her.

Let him think she was weak. Let him believe she was nothing but a debt to be owned.

He had no idea who she really was.

She was her father's daughter.

And this game?

She would learn to play it too.

She drifted off to sleep, but her mind was consumed by thoughts of her new husband, Alessandro de Luca.

She couldn't shake the feeling that this man, with his chiseled features and commanding presence, would be difficult to navigate. His piercing gaze seemed to bore into her soul, as if daring her to defy him. As she lay there, her mind racing with uncertainty, Alessandro was already miles away, meeting with his loyal men who had summoned him with urgent news. A attempted breach of his warehouse had been reported, and Alessandro's expression darkened with each passing moment. No one crossed him and lived to tell the tale. The most powerful and feared mafia lord in the game, Alessandro wouldn't tolerate any disrespect.

His honeymoon, supposed to be a celebration of his union with her, would have to wait.

Business came first, and he would make sure those responsible paid dearly.

Kael's been alone on this island for what felt like an enternity. The endless blue waters,the scorching sun, suffocating silence... it was a never ending torment. He had lost count of the days, the weeks, the months, maybe even years, since he'd been stranded on this desolate island. The isolation was a torment, a constant reminder of his solitude. But there was one night, every month, when his loneliness became almost unbearable, the full moon night. It was the night when the beast within him stirred, when the primal urges he'd tried to suppress for so long finally broke free. Kael's body would contort, his muscles twisting, his senses heightening as he transformed into a creature driven by instinct and raw power. The full moon night was a double-edged sword, a liberation from his human constraints, yet a reminder of the monster he harbored within. And as the moon began to rise, casting an eerie glow over the island, Kael felt the familiar stirrings of his beast, straining to be unleashed. But then, he saw her. Princess farah. A vision of loveliness, with skin as pale as the sand and hair as black as the night. She was a fleeting glimpse of perfection,a whispered promise of salvation. He watched her, his heart pounding in his chest. He didn't dare approach her, didn't dare breath a word. he was a ghost,a shadow, a monster. And yet,he couldn't tear his eyes away. he was captivated by her beauty,her laughter,her joy. His mate In that moment, he knew he'd do anything to make her his. Anything...

I was four months pregnant, a photographer excited for our future, attending a sophisticated baby brunch. Then I saw him, my husband Michael, with another woman, and a newborn introduced as "his son." My world shattered as a torrent of betrayal washed over me, magnified by Michael's dismissive claim I was "just being emotional." His mistress, Serena, taunted me, revealing Michael had discussed my pregnancy complications with her, then slapped me, causing a terrifying cramp. Michael sided with her, publicly shaming me, demanding I leave "their" party, as a society blog already paraded them as a "picture-perfect family." He fully expected me to return, to accept his double life, telling his friends I was "dramatic" but would "always come back." The audacity, the calculated cruelty of his deception, and Serena's chilling malice, fueled a cold, hard rage I barely recognized. How could I have been so blind, so trusting of the man who gaslighted me for months while building a second family? But on the plush carpet of that lawyer's office, as he turned his back on me, a new, unbreakable resolve solidified. They thought I was broken, disposable, easily manipulated – a "reasonable" wife who would accept a sham separation. They had no idea my calm acceptance was not surrender; it was strategy, a quiet promise to dismantle everything he held dear. I would not be handled; I would not understand; I would end this, and make sure their perfect family charade crumbled into dust.

MY MASTERS

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
