MARRIED TO MY DEADLIEST ENEMY
In the blood-soaked streets of Chicago, Luca Moretti is the most feared heir in the mafia underworld. Ruthless, ice-cold, and untouchable, he rules the Moretti empire with a blade and a smile that never reaches his eyes. Three years ago, he personally ended the Voss family with every last member in a raid that left only one survivor: Alexei Voss, 28, the ghost enforcer who once tried to assassinate him and succeeded in killing Luca’s brother.
Now Luca has Alexei in his steel-and-obsidian penthouse, chained to the bed when he’s not on his knees. Every escape attempt is met with punishment: glass pressed to his back, blood on the sheets, and Luca’s voice whispering that this war is far from over. Alexei hates him with every breath. Luca hates him even more until the night Alexei is pregnant and the truth destroys every plan Luca ever had.
What begins as pure vengeance becomes something darker, filthier, and far more dangerous. Luca decides Alexei belongs to him forever. Alexei decides he will burn the world down to destroy Luca’s empire… unless that empire is the only thing that can keep his child safe.
With knife-play that leaves them both shaking, public-risk fucks in the back of armored SUVs, and moments where hate and love twist so tightly they feel the same, they fight an empire, each other, and the child growing between them.
In the end, two monsters from a war that should have ended them both discover they were never the enemy, they were the only home either of them ever needed.

Chapter: Chapter 9: The Escape PlanThe seventh morning was worse.Alexei woke on his side, wrists raw and stretched, the heavy chain now looped through both cuffs and bolted to the bedpost so his arms were pinned wide. The cuts across his chest and stomach had crusted overnight but pulled open with every shallow breath. The graze on his thigh wept steadily, the bandage soaked through and stiff. His vision was still blurry at the edges from blood loss and pain. He could taste copper on his tongue and feel the rain hammering the window like it was trying to wash him away.He hadn’t spoken once since Luca left. The silence was ironclad. No food. No water. Just the slow drip of blood onto the marble and the low hum of the city far below.The door opened at 6:06 a.m.Luca stepped in wearing the same black slacks and white shirt, sleeves rolled high. The bruise on his temple had turned a deep, ugly black. His storm-grey eyes flicked over Alexei’s chained form, cataloging every new cut, every tremor, the way blood still leake

Chapter: Chapter 8: Broken SilenceThe sixth morning arrived in a haze of gray drizzle and the low, constant hum of the city far below. Alexei woke up on his side again, the chain now looped around both wrists, pulling his arms tight against his ribs. The cuffs had left deeper purple rings that burned when he shifted. His green eyes felt swollen, the skin around them tight and hot. Every breath pulled at the fresh lines Luca had carved across his chest and stomach crusted, angry, weeping a little when he moved wrong. The graze on his thigh had gone septic; it throbbed in time with his heartbeat, red and slick under the ruined bandage. The tattoo on his forearm had smeared completely, the ink now a dark, bruised smear that itched like fire every time the skin stretched.He’d spent most of yesterday on his knees, then on his side, then curled into a tight ball because standing hurt worse than lying down. No food. No water. Just the rain drumming the window and the slow, relentless drip of blood from the cuts. The safe wo

Chapter: Chapter 7: The Safe WordThe fifth morning bled in gray and merciless.Alexei was on his knees again when the door opened at 6:09 a.m., chain pulled taut through the bedpost, wrists raw beneath the cuffs. The new cuts across his chest and stomach had crusted overnight but cracked open with every shallow breath. His thigh burned under the ruined bandage, the graze weeping fresh blood down his leg. The tattoo on his forearm was a smeared ruin. His whole body felt like one continuous bruise, alive only in the places Luca had opened.Luca entered without a word. Same black slacks, same white shirt with sleeves rolled high. The bruise on his temple had settled into a deep violet. He carried the black toolkit and the longer hunting knife. His storm-grey eyes flicked over Alexei’s kneeling form, cataloging every mark like inventory.He set the knife on the nightstand with a soft click.“Up,” Luca said.Alexei rose on shaking legs. The chain rattled. He kept his green eyes fixed on Luca’s face, jaw tight, refusing

Chapter: Chapter 6: The Knife Is NewThe fourth morning was worse.Alexei woke up on his side again, cheek pressed to the cold marble floor, the chain still looped through the bedpost and attached to his left wrist. His left wrist throbbed where the cuff had bitten in overnight. The cuts on his chest and stomach had started to burn like they were on fire new lines crossed with old scars, each one pulling when he breathed. His thigh had gone completely numb under the soaked bandage. The graze from yesterday had reopened, the bullet wound now a raw, angry ring that pulsed with every heartbeat. His face was swollen, the nose crunched flat, the split lip scabbed over but the inside was still raw. The shallow cut on his neck from the first night had healed into a thin pink line, but it itched like fire when he swallowed. And the tattoo on his forearm “Stay” was bleeding again, the ink smudged and dark.He’d spent the last three days mostly on his side, chain clinking softly with every shallow breath, staring at the bloody str

Chapter: Chapter 5: Three DaysThe first forty-eight hours were a blur of rain and silence.Alexei didn’t eat. He didn’t drink. He didn’t speak. The chain was the only thing that moved soft clinks every time he shifted from his side to his back, every time he rolled onto his stomach to stare at the blood-streaked window. The cuts Luca had made on the glass were still there, faint red lines that the rain had washed clean but not erased. Alexei could see them in the reflection when he turned his head. Six parallel scars. Like a map he hadn’t asked for.His body was a warzone of old and new pain. The graze on his thigh had swollen, the bullet wound pulsing with every heartbeat. His ribs felt cracked again where Luca had bumped him into the glass. His face nose, lips, the cut on his temple from the first night hadn’t healed right. The cuts on his back from the glass were deeper than he liked. Every breath pulled at them. Every swallow tasted like copper

Chapter: Chapter 4: Glued to the GlassThe bedroom door creaked open again at exactly 7:42 a.m. by the clock on the nightstand. Alexei’s head had been spinning since Luca left last night, the shallow cut on his neck now a thin red line that burned every time he swallowed. His wrist throbbed where the cuff had bitten in. His thigh felt like it was on fire. But the rage was sharper than the pain. It sat in his gut like bad whiskey and wouldn’t let him sleep.He was still naked, chain loose enough now to let him sit up, when the door opened. Luca stepped in carrying the same black duffel bag from last night, plus a small black toolkit he’d left on the floor outside. Rain streaked the windows behind him, turning the city into a smear of gray and neon. Luca’s face was calm, but there was a fresh bruise blooming along his left temple where Alexei had headbutted him. Good. Means he wasn’t completely healed.“Up,” Luca said. No hello. No good morning. Just the command, the s
