She chased a rich man for revenge. She collided with a mafia king instead. Ophelia Barclay has spent her entire life playing by the rules of a family that never wanted her. Now, after a humiliating betrayal by her fiancé and stepsister days before her wedding, she’s done playing nice. Revenge is the only thing on her mind, and she knows exactly how she’ll get it: find a rich, powerful man who can elevate her beyond the Barclays’ reach, and leave them choking on the dust of her success. First-class flights become her hunting ground. But when she meets Ludwig Gallo, a man whose presence steals the very air from her lungs, her plans unravel before they even begin. He's everything she’s been looking for: dangerous, devastatingly handsome, and so wealthy it hurts to breathe near him. The problem? He doesn’t even glance her way. Humiliated and desperate, Ophelia thinks she’s lost everything… until fate throws her right into Ludwig’s world. Tracking a lost necklace, her most treasured possession, she finds herself sneaking into the heavily guarded Gallo estate, only to be captured by the mafia king himself. Mistaken for a spy, imprisoned in enemy territory, Ophelia’s survival instincts kick in. When Ludwig proposes a deal to pretend to be his girlfriend to silence rumours that have driven his mother into depression, Ophelia sees an opportunity. She’ll play the doting lover, smile for the cameras, win the favour of one of the most feared families in the underworld… and use Ludwig's wealth and power to destroy everyone who wronged her. But Ophelia didn’t plan on Ludwig being more than just a cold-blooded king. Beneath his ruthless exterior, she finds a man haunted by a violent past.

A Deal With The Mafia King Chapter 4: The Trigger Point
In my hands, the gun feels weighty and frigid. As I direct it at the man strapped to the chair, I observe how his fractured body quivers. He slowly raises his head, his eyes wide with sheer terror, blood streaming from his nostrils. His mouth moves in a last-ditch appeal. "Please," he says in a barely perceptible murmur. "Please don’t." Ludwig leans nonchalantly against the wall behind me. His gentle yet ruthless voice pierces the dense atmosphere. His words are, "Pull the trigger," I can hardly hear anything else because my heart is pounding so fiercely. I know what happens to people who refuse Ludwig Gallo, yet I still want to scream, throw the gun across the room, and go. In this case, there are no second chances. Just surviving. Death only. I raise the firearm. I grip the handle so firmly that my fingers shake. Between the man's chest and the empty space beside him, the barrel vacillates. I'll cross a line I'll never be able to get back if I shoot him. I might not

I looked directly into his eyes.They were filled with dreadful certainty, emotionless, and frigid. Each heartbeat sounded like a warning bell inside my chest, causing my pulse to gallop. I wanted to scream, to escape, to disappear into the ground. However, time was of the essence. No way out.My jaw dropped."One.""I'll remain," I muttered.As the words left my throat, they burned. They tasted like capitulation, treachery, and iron. However, they were the only ones who could sustain my life.He curled his lips, but not into a smile. Something smug and colder, as if he had always known I would fold. His expression was one of satisfaction rather than victory."Wise girl," he remarked.He moved aside to make room for me. However, it didn't seem liberating. It had the texture of softly placed bait inside a steel trap. For now, but not for long, I could breathe."Stand up," he said.Even though my legs shook under me, I made them move. I got up slowly, maintaining eye contact the entire

With enough force to shake the floor under my feet, the door slammed behind me. The air in my nostrils hung in my throat as I spun around With their arms crossed over their wide chests, two burly men in black suits stood guard in front of the exit. Their unwavering, lifeless stares made it immediately obvious that I wasn't leaving in that manner.With my heart hammering between my ribs, I slowly turned around. A few steps away, the man from the plane stood with an unreadable look. He observed me as though I were a savage animal he had captured, debating whether to shoot or tame it."Who are you?" His voice was low, clipped, and razor-sharp as he repeated the question.All of my instincts told me to lie. to sprint. To combat. However, I elevated my chin, which was not what I had intended to do."I informed you. I own that necklace.He smiled slowly and without humour. It wasn't nice. It was the kind of grin that comes before catastrophe. Like in movies, right before the bad guy shoots

(Ophelia’s Perspective."You either leave this flight with a future, or you leave it with nothing," I said to myself as I pressed my skirt down.There was a lot of noise coming from the boarding gate—loud clicks of pricey shoes, rolling baggage, and gentle laughter. With a trained eye, I looked around the crowd. First-rate. The best of the greatest only. And I needed the greatest more than ever tonight.A man walked by me wearing a dapper grey suit. Too many smiles, neat shoes, and a Rolex. No. Another is talking on his phone too loudly while wearing dark glasses indoors. Not at all.With my heart slamming against my ribs like fists on a closed door, I moved my bag higher on my shoulder and stepped into the queue. I had this plan. I'm alive. Look for a dude. A wealthy man. Someone who could raise me to such a height that my disloyal relatives would choke on my dust.Almost all of my money was gone. No time. No options. There was no room for failure.The fragrance of leather, polished
