The Mafia Devil's Princess
Kierra Hail had already lost everything—her child, her marriage, her dignity. Betrayed by the man she once loved, cast aside for his mistress, and left to rot as he stripped her of everything she owned. But the cruelest blow? Her daughter’s death, a tragedy her husband could have prevented if he had only chosen her life over his secret lover’s son.
Now, broken and gasping for one last chance at survival, Kierra dials a number she swore she’d never use.
A man who calls her princess.
A man who doesn’t forgive.
A man who owns the underworld.
Sebastian Novair—heir to the infamous Noir de Costas Syndicates and a merciless mafia king with blood on his hands and fire in his veins. Years ago, Kierra saved him. Now, he’s back to collect his debt—with interest.
He offers her power, vengeance, and the sweet taste of retribution. But making a deal with the devil has its price… and he’s more than willing to make her pay in ways she never imagined.
He’ll ruin her enemies.
He’ll break her chains.
And he’ll claim what’s always been his— her.

Chapter: A RivalOfficer Reyes cuffed my hands and brought me into the backseat of his police car. The cold metal around my wrists bit into my skin, a reminder that my freedom was now someone else’s to decide. I twisted toward him as Christina was pulled away to sit with the other officers.“I want Christina with me,” I snapped, trying to follow her with my eyes.“No,” Reyes replied without looking back. His tone was clipped. Final.I glared out the window, my breath fogging up the glass.“Where are you taking me?”“To my office,” he answered, turning the steering wheel without sparing me a glance.“You’re not going to detain me, are you?”“You’ve hurt people,” he said flatly.“I did it out of self-defense.”“Let the court be the judge of that.”I scoffed and stared back at the streets blurring past.“So I can’t defend people now, Officer?”“We would’ve swooped in, whether you helped her or not.”“And what if you didn’t?” I asked, locking eyes with him in the mirror. “Christina would’ve died.”He didn

Chapter: Guardian and the DevilIt turns out I wasn’t the only one tracking these hoodlums. As the piercing lights of police cruisers lit up the trees in a strobe of red and blue, I realized just how deep I’d gotten into this. I’d preferred to work alone—quietly. But the bastard was right.I really did outdo myself this time.The aftermath was gruesome.Men sprawled over the cobblestone road—half of them bloodied, some motionless. Others groaned or whimpered, restrained by officers or stabilized by paramedics. The air reeked of gunpowder and blood. I stood in the middle, shaking slightly, my palm still sore from gripping the pistol. My side throbbed from the hit I’d taken earlier, and my heart hadn’t calmed since.But I was breathing.And so was Christina.I saw her being pulled from the back of the truck—alive but trembling, barely holding herself together. The blanket around her shoulders couldn’t cover the violation in her eyes.A firm grip landed on my arm. I turned quickly, defensive—but it was only Officer Rey

Chapter: Blood Beneath the Bridge“Fucking bitch, you really outdid yourself this time.”His voice was thick with venom as he glanced around the darkened road, rage and panic twisting his features. This path wasn’t on the map—an old, nearly forgotten service road built through the woods and only remembered by criminals and ghosts. A bridge hung over the gully, no lighting, no witnesses. The perfect place for someone to disappear.Anxiety succumbs their faces as they struggle to point their flashlights over the sea of trees that covered both sides. It didn’t help that the bridge sealed him in constant darkness, away from the mercy of moonlight.A perfect place to kill.I had vanished into the shadows, crawling into the thick veil of trees lining the roadside. Their flashlights skimmed the forest edges like dying lighthouses, unable to penetrate the heavy dark. Anxiety painted their faces. They weren’t hunters anymore. They were prey.“Fucking find her already!” he shouted, voice cracking under pressure.One by one, the

Chapter: HuntressThis was my third shift tonight, and I was running on fumes—emotionally, physically, and mentally. I had danced for hours, twisting my body for the hungry eyes of men who didn’t care about the soul behind the movements. All I could think about was Letty. Still no leads. Still no answers. And Davide? That bastard was untouchable—for now.Somewhere out there, Sebastian was watching. Enjoying the show, perhaps. That infuriating man always had eyes on me. He said it was to protect me, but sometimes, it felt like something darker. Possession, maybe. Control.I wiped the sweat from my brow as my shift ended. Predictably, some men followed me to the alley. They were drunk, loud, and sloppy, thinking their wallets gave them a right to my body. I was getting used to brushing them off by now—until something changed.A loud honk echoed from the back of the bar, sharp enough to cut through the midnight silence. A truck—blacked-out windows, no plates—pulled up and parked like it owned the damn str

Chapter: Provoked Sebastian was silent as he dragged me out of the bar that night.He didn’t say a word. Didn’t even glance at me. His grip on my wrist was firm—not enough to hurt, but enough to make a point. I followed, letting him lead me across the dimly lit parking lot like a prisoner. The streetlamps buzzed overhead, casting long, eerie shadows across the asphalt.“Sebastian, I handled myself just fine,” I muttered, trying to cut through his anger with a trace of defiance.He didn’t answer. He didn’t have to. His silence was louder than anything he could say.When we reached the car, he yanked the passenger door open and stood there. His face was hard, unreadable. I slid into the seat, folding my arms tightly over my chest.“Come on,” I said, looking up at him. “Please?”He still wouldn’t speak. Just clicked the seatbelt over my shoulder and slammed the door shut.Once he slid into the driver’s seat, I tried again. “I called you. I swear I did.”He didn’t respond. Instead, he turned the key, and t

Chapter: FlamesMy knees weakened at the news of Letty.As if on cue, the detective reached out, steadying me as I lost my strength. I could barely hear the thud of my knees threatening to give in beneath me. Letty—missing? It couldn’t be. I had just spoken to her two nights ago. Laughed with her. Thanked her.If she vanished right after I dropped her off…She was taken."Seems like you know her," he said, watching my expression with scrutiny.I steadied my voice, burying the tremor. "I’ve just seen her around. We’ve said hi a few times."He narrowed his eyes slightly, not convinced but willing to let it go. "She’s been missing for two days. If you hear anything, call me. Your contribution might save a life."He handed me his card, his fingers brushing mine briefly. The moment he walked out the bar’s red-lit door, nausea hit me like a wave.I couldn't breathe.The music inside pounded through the floorboards, but it felt muted now. Distant. I darted to the back of the bar, pushing through the emergen

Chapter: The EndThe bells rang from the distance. The woman with the bright orange hair stood behind the huge doors of the church. Her eyes were closed and a smile was evident on the woman's lips. Everything that she dreamed of was finally before her eyes. The moment had finally come. She opened her eyes and the doors finally parted ways. Her eyes fell to the long golden aisle that she so dreamt of walking one day. Beside it, on the benches, for all the people she loved and cared for. She felt her heart start pounding and racing faster and faster, when her bright persimmon orbs reached the center of the long corridor. There he stood, the love of her life, the apple of her eye, the man who taught her how to love. He had a smirk on his face and she just wanted to get over with that aisle wipe that smug grin off his face with a kiss. The music started. The harmonious synchronization of chorale brought everyone to their tears. Her mother who was standing also, in the aisle— staring at her beautif

Chapter: Secret?Asty was walking around the palace when she noticed something strange everywhere. The maids seem to be avoiding her and she did not seem to see a single sentry guarding the gates.Everyone seems to be very busy and every time she would greet them they would only turn away."That's odd." she told herself. "They don't really act like this to me before."She walked around and around and even brought herself into the garden. But there was not a single person around.What was going on, she thought.She couldn't even find her friends anywhere in the Palace. She had woken up with absolutely nothing but the chirping of birds. She looked around to see if there was someone she can talk to.Yvonne wasn't there, Chaol wasn't there. Even her brother was not there."Where could they all have gone to?"She noticed that the maids were stealing glances at her. She would look at them and wave but then they would only avoid her gaze.

Chapter: Rosellia's GraveAfter being able to speak with her mother, Asty led the group to a path in the woods that led to a field of dandelions.They looked around and saw how beautiful it was. The sun was before them, and they could feel it burning through their skin, but even so— their eyes were fixed on the blanket of flowers that seemed to flow against the wind."This is so beautiful." Lana commented.Asty smiled at her. "This is where my mistress is buried.""Why isn't she buried in a proper grave?""That is because this is what she requested. That is a part of her will to be buried under the field of dandelions, chrysanthemums, and daisies. She wanted to face the sun and the skies. She wanted to look at the blanket of stars as she rested. That is what she imagined."They smiled at her and walked towards the field."I think it is better if we leave you be." Chaol told Asty, Yvonne, and Robynn. "I think you guys need more of an alone time with this,

She stared at it for a long amount of time before wondering something in her head.Chaol reached out to her head and made it rest on his shoulders."Is something troubling you?" he asked her."No nothing at all." She told him. "I was just wondering a few things.""Like what?""They are not very pleasant things." She told him and smiled. "It's best if I keep it to myself.""You can always tell me about it. I won't mind." Chaol smiled at her. "Is it because of the battle?""Yeah." she nodded. "Polo was... in pain. I didn't know that he had to go through all that that's why he became the way he was. He went after so many painful things in his life that I cannot even imagine happening to me.""You saw his memories?""I did." she nodded at him. "They were not very go

Chapter: The AftermathTWO WEEKS AFTER THE ECLIPSE WAREverything was starting to get better and better. The castle was finally starting to have its exterior and interior repair. It was not an easy path for them to take. The villagers that survived the war still had fear lingering inside their hearts. But nevertheless, even if there were fear and there was uncertainty, villagers continued to place their trust in the king. The king provided them with all the construction materials that they will be able to use to fix their houses that were crushed and broken during the war. While the villagers were singing their songs as they hammered their walls, a man came and frantically told them about the good news."Everyone, everyone! King is holding a celebration in the square! We must all go and watch it! Everyone's heroes will be displayed! And the parents of those who had lost their lives will be given compensation and medals for the achievement of their

Chapter: It's OverAsty walked within the flames of the ground as she approached the lifeless corpse of her beloved. she clenched her fists upon seeing his torn body and closed her eyes as the tears streamed down from her face. There is no greater pain in the world than to lose someone you love.It is a pain that will be permanent inside your heart and will linger around for so many years. And she was not sure if she was prepared for that. Everything was so sudden, so fast, so abrupt. Did not know what to do or what to expect. The betrayal, the revelations, and then suddenly turning back the tables to prove that the ones she thought were the criminals were actually the innocent ones.She crouched on the ground and reached out to his cold body. What else can she expect? He is gone and he will never come back to her. The eclipse was an unfair event. The people viewed it as equal, but to her, it was only another cruel event.

I couldn't breathe and the butterflies fluttering inside my stomach weren't helping.My mind was going crazy.I quickly pushed Riftan away and bit his lip. The male took a step back, head hung low. I stared at him, shocked as he wiped the blood from his lips."Was it too unpleasant for you?" he asked.I was too stunned to reply. I remained there, blood leaving my face."I will be heading to my room now," he told me and turned his back. "Good night."Riftan then walked away, as if nothing happened between the both of us. I covered my lips with fingers-ghasted.What just happened? Was that a dream?"Vermillion?" a voice said from behind.

Not fully healed yet.Riftan was busy today, leaving me free to explore. I turned to Linda, who was preparing snacks. “Anywhere entertaining around here?”“Yeah.” she gestured toward a barren tree in the distance. “That used to be a plum tree. Riftan wouldn’t let us cut it.”“A tree was important to him?” I squinted at it. Lifeless, no leaves or blossoms.Linda’s expression softened as she stared at the tree.“Lin?”She blinked, shaking her head. “Sorry.”I frowned. “Something on your mind?”She hesitated, then smiled. “Just remembering the last time it blossomed.”I leaned in, “Tell me.”She sighed, “When Lord Riftan was young, I saw hi

Their flags suspended in the air, displaying the bright colors of their symbolic nation.They marched against the snow, spears on their hips, ready to thrust. The King stood before them, leading his men to the rickety, frigid path."Halt!" the general roared and the men behind him did not march any further. The King stared at the distance before him.The assassins from the trees were not happy with the King's soldiers.

I grabbed our bags and slung the other strap over my shoulder."Are you all set?" he asked, his eyes scanning me briefly.I nodded, giving him a thumbs-up. "Yeah, I'm all good to go.""Give me that bag.""What?" I glanced down at it. "Oh, this? It's fine. These are my things. I'll carry it.""Give it to me," he insisted, holding out his hand. "I'll carry it for you."I sighed in defeat and handed him the bag. "Don't peek inside, okay?""Of course I wouldn't."We left the inn and headed downstairs. Near the entrance, our carriage stood ready, the same navigator from before waving in acknowledgment. I returned the gesture, since Riftan, as usual, was too cold to do so.Dreyar, Stella, and her husband, Zephyl, were also waiting at the entrance."Ruby!" Stella called out with a bright smile.

Chapter: Unsaid Feelings"Before going back to Askavan, you must know something about the Valley of Ghouls."Ares bent down, pulling a rolled parchment from his boot. He handed it to Lei, his hand firm but strangely gentle."Arthurian lives far," he said. "But he manages the biggest archive in Wolf Territory. There must be something there you can find."Lei unraveled the map, her fingers tracing the faded ink. It was the first time she'd truly seen the scale of the Wolf Territory. It spanned nearly as vast as Askavan—untamed and nameless.Five emblems marked the parchment:A wolf’s head — the Black City, ruled by the Lycan King of the Midnight Legion.A sun’s crest — the lush Sunlit Reservoir, domain of the cunning Ares and the Helios Pack.A ravaging claw — the grim Zetalyn Grounds, the military base where Commander Aiden reigned with iron law.A whimsical tree — the Moonlit Pavilion, where the half-blood magi-wolves, the Gnosenia Magus, lived under Arthurius’ clever governance.A gold coin — the prosperous

Chapter: A Wolf in Sheep's ClothingAjax and Ares brought Lei back inside as she opened that rusty, bloodstained envelope. The two acted as her guardians, and their figures loomed behind her like a shadow, as always. With trembling fingers, she traced the wax engraving of the Auctioneer that sealed the letter and took a deep breath.“I can’t fucking believe he’s dead,” she palmed her face in distress as she held her struggle to tear up. “And to think, after all these years, I had never thought to ask about his welfare.”Ares’s palm squeezed her shoulder, “It’s not your fault, Lei—”“Of course, it was!” she could not help but blurt out as teardrops finally escaped from the crevices of her eyes. “Fuck... if only I hadn’t caused all of this... if only I didn’t kill the governor.”“There’s no point crying over spilled milk now.” Ajax firmly reminded her, tethering her to what is most important. “Open the letter, and we’ll make our move.”She finally opened the envelope, revealing a note on crumbling parchment.

Chapter: A Foreboding NewsAjax slammed Kai across the floorboards of his own ship. Blood splattered across the deck as the king crashed into the wood, groaning in pain. The crew stood frozen in place, eyes wide with fear as they dared not move. No one stepped forward. No one helped. They simply watched.“What the fuck are you all looking at?!” Kai spat, blood dripping from his mouth, his pride shredded in front of his men.Ajax loomed over him, turning his cold gaze toward the silent bannermen. “Ah,” he said mockingly, “it seems they think of you as less than a king.”“You’ll regret laying your filthy hands on me, Ajax Nyth!” Kai hissed, glaring up from the floor.Ajax shrugged with maddening calm. “Set foot in my territory again, and I’ll make sure your ships burn before they reach shore. Perhaps the sirens will be full for a year.”Kai’s eyes flicked to the water—where shadows swirled beneath the surface. Long, sinuous tails sliced through the depths like blades. Watching.

I killed the governor, yes, but what have I done to you? If anything, you should be indebted to me for taking my uncle’s life!”“Indebted? A king is never indebted to anyone,” Kai replied. “Come with me, and I’ll repay everything.”Suddenly, the door behind Cataleia slammed shut, leaving her alone in the room with Kai.She rushed to the door, trying to pry it open, but it wouldn’t budge. Kai approached her slowly, his golden eyes shifting into something venomous—like those of a snake. “Do you not wish to become Askavan’s Queen, Cataleia Reiss?” He drew nearer until his breath was just inches from her cheek. “Do you not wish to become the most pow

She had thought he would have shrugged her hand away as soon as their skin touched.“A warning, woman. You ought not to touch me so suddenly, especially when we’re alone.”Fumbling, she quickly releases her light grip on his wrist.“I’m sorry, it’s just that— you’re walking so fast.

The weres scowled with their bare fangs as they noticed the insignia of Askavan on the carriages."Don't make such statements," his retainer reminded him. "The weres can hear you.""I intend for them to hear," Kai shrugged. "Such a gloomy greeting. Where is their Alpha?""He is already there." Kai's eyes wandered into the entrance of the Nyth Manor— a huge fortress made of obsidian and basalt which glowed only in the moonlight. The fortress rose high into the sky like a castle."This architecture is splendid," his retainer comments out of awe.
