BETWEEN TWO MAFIA KINGS THE STOLEN HEIRESS
“Kidnapped, hunted, and desired—she’s the heiress everyone wants to claim.”
Zyra thought she was just a bartender, living a simple life with dreams of a future alongside her boyfriend. But one overheard secret, one careless step, plunges her into the deadly world of the mafia….a world ruled by power, betrayal, and blood. Kidnapped and trapped by Rafael, a man feared and respected by all, she must navigate a dangerous game of survival where every choice could cost her life.
Just when she thinks she might find safety, another shadow emerges: Cassian, a mafia lord claiming she was promised to him from birth. Secrets about her past, a family she never knew, and a life stolen from her come crashing down. Caught between two ruthless men…one obsessed with her, one demanding her submission.
Zyra must fight to uncover the truth, protect those she loves, and reclaim the empire that is rightfully hers.
In a world where love is dangerous, trust is deadly, and every heartbeat could be her last, Zyra will learn that surviving the mafia is only the beginning… and her choices could decide not just her fate, but the fate of an empire.
“Her heart is their battleground, and her life is the prize.”

Chapter: I never regret anythingRafael's POVThe blow landed clean across Dave's face, snapping his head to the side, and he groaned through it but didn't cry out. Didn't beg. I almost respected that."You really are a brave one, Dave." I crouched slightly, studying the blood at the corner of his mouth. "Let me guess you thought I wasn't going to find out. Or your people would kill me, because I walked in alone, and probably because I was with a girl. Huh? Tell me."I gripped his face, forcing his eyes to mine. He actually chuckled, blood on his teeth."I wonder why you always get this lucky," he whispered.I slapped him hard enough to snap his head the other way. "So you work for someone else." I straightened, circling him slowly. "I wondered why I never really liked you when I first saw you."He laughed, tired and weak, but there was something defiant buried in it. "You are just scared I was going to help Zyra escape you again," he whispered."You think I would enjoy finding you, Dave?" I pulled the knife off the

Chapter: Kill or get killedZyra's POV"You are home now," Micheal said, easing the car into the compound, the headlights sweeping briefly across the gate before he cut the engine."Would Rafael really kill him?" I asked, my voice smaller than I wanted it to be.Micheal didn't even hesitate. "Yes, he would." He kept his eyes forward, hands still resting on the wheel like he needed something to hold onto before he said the rest. "One thing Rafael hates is betrayal, or spying. And in the mafia, that is taken seriously. Walking into another mafia's territory to get information that is wrong."The words landed somewhere in my chest and split it clean in two."So he's really going to kill Dave?" I whispered. "Is there no way to stop him?"Micheal turned then, finally, to look at me properly, and something in his expression made my stomach drop before he even spoke."Don't get involved, Zyra." His tone had shifted no longer just informing me, but warning me. "Because Rafael would pay you no mercy. Okay, he might like

Chapter: Scores to settleRafael's POV"Rafael... please drive slowly," Zyra muttered, gripping the handle above the passenger door as I pushed the car even faster.The engine roared beneath us, swallowing every sound around us. Cars blurred past as I weaved recklessly through traffic, narrowly avoiding collision after collision."Just make sure to hold on to something," I said without taking my eyes off the road. She tightened her grip, her knuckles turning white."Rafael, watch out!" she screamed the moment I swerved around a massive truck, missing it by mere inches.A chuckle escaped my lips and She snapped her head toward me, disbelief written all over her frightened face."What is funny?" she asked."The way you screamed." She stared at me as if I had completely lost my mind."What do those people want from you?" she asked, her voice trembling."I don't know... not until I find out." I glanced into the rearview mirror. "But one thing is certain.""My death."Almost immediately, a loud gunshot echoed throu

Chapter: I was being watchedRafael's POV"I need to go," I told Zyra.She looked up at me from the edge of the bed and gave a small nod. "Okay," she whispered softly.For a few seconds, I simply stared at her. She looked calm, but I knew her well enough to see the uncertainty hidden behind those beautiful eyes."Do you want to come with me?" I asked and her face lit up instantly, the dullness in her eyes replaced with excitement."With you?" she asked, almost as if she couldn't believe what she'd heard.I nodded. "Yeah. With me." A bright smile spread across her lips. "Yeah! Let's go.""But..." I interrupted, my voice turning serious, "you promise not to leave my side." She stood up immediately."Yeah. Why would I?" she asked innocently. I shot her a look, the same warning look she had learned to fear over the years."I'm serious, Zyra."The smile on her face faded slightly as she blinked. "I won't act funny," she muttered. "Because I know what you can do when you find me."A smirk tugged at the corner of my lip

Chapter: I just stared a warRafael's POV"Rafael, can I come in?" Mrs. Diana said."Yeah, you can," I told her, and she walked in gently. "How are you?" she asked me."What do you think," I said, as she sat down beside me. "Why are you here?" I asked her."To see you," she said. "You looked mad when you passed by me and Zyra earlier, and she had to suffer for it," she said. I sighed."Lord Lugard came here today. He wanted me to hand Zyra over to Carlos," I said."So what did you say to him?" she asked me."I refused. I refused because Zyra is my property, and you know how much I hate giving up something I bought, especially when it's a treasure," I said. She chuckled."So now what you know you just drew a line with Carlos," she said. I scoffed."I've always had that line drawn between us, it just wasn't obvious before," I said."Now you need to be extra vigilant, you know that, right," she said, and I sighed."It's nothing new to me," I said."May the gods protect you from harm, my son," she said. I scoffed."T

Chapter: Do what neededMichael's POV"Nick," I called out, and he rushed toward me."Get ready to leave," I said."Leave?" he whispered, confused. "Go where?" he said. I scoffed."You dare question me?" I said, and he lowered his head."I'm sorry, I'm just caught off guard, and I wanted to know why," he said."Is that yours to decide, okay? You're coming with me, and that's final," I said. "So get the car ready, we're leaving," I said, walking out and standing in front of the house.I wondered why Rafael didn't trust this young guy, I thought, when my phone rang."Hello Zee, how's the club going?" I asked her."We need you here right now, Michael," she said."What's going on," I asked her."Is it that detective again," I added."Yeah, she's back," she said. I rubbed my forehead."What does she want this time," I asked, already frustrated."I don't know, man, she's just been walking around like some kind of spy," she said."Is she in uniform?" I asked her."No, boss, she came dressed differently today," she
