LOGINWhen 20 year old Emilia Navarro is sold to one of the most feared mafia lord in the city, her world shatters. Her father and stepmother, drowning in debt and desperate for a taste of luxury, trade her innocence for a pile of blood stained money. She is delivered like property to Dante Calhoun a cold, ruthless man with ice in his veins and a reputation built on violence. Dante didn't ask for a bride, he demanded obedience, a pawn to solidify his grip over a rival family. What he didn't expect was Emilia's fire, fragile yet defiant. Emilia refuses to be broken even as she thrusts into a world of brutal power plays ,deadly secrets and dangerous alliances. As the lines between hate and desire blur, Emilia must learn how to survive in a world where love is a weapon and loyalty is earned in blood. But the deeper she falls into Dante's world, the more she realizes that the most dangerous thing may not be falling for the man she was sold to but discovering secrets behind her true origin.
View MoreThe forest had changed.What was once a place of strength and sacred power now lay silent and forgotten, as if the earth itself had chosen to mourn. The trees no longer whispered. The moon no longer glowed with warmth. The air tasted of ash and old memories.Nothing grew here anymore.And still, Dante returned.Every year, on the same night, to the same spot—an ancient cliff just beyond the Bloodmoon territory, where the stars once looked brighter, where she once smiled beside him and talked about a life that would never come.Now he stood alone, tall and quiet, cloaked in black.The wind swept through his hair, tousling it like a lover’s final touch. His eyes, once the sharp golden hue of a protector, now burned with something darker—something unrecognizable.No one dared speak to him.Not anymore.The Dante who had once led with both strength and mercy had been buried the same day Emilia was. And what rose in his place… was not a man who could be reasoned with.He hadn’t taken back
The wind howled through the broken windows of the long-forgotten mansion, carrying with it the scent of decay, dust, and something older—something darker.The structure groaned beneath the weight of time, its walls cracked, its ceilings sagging with age. It was the kind of place people whispered about in passing, but never dared approach. Yet tonight, it was full. Not with laughter, not with warmth, but with hushed voices, sharpened eyes, and deadly purpose.A circle had formed inside the ruined ballroom. The chandeliers above them swayed gently, their crystals dulled by grime and the years. Shadows danced across the floor, thrown by flickering torches pinned to rusted iron sconces. They were a ragtag collection—witches with cracked fingernails and burning eyes, rogue wolves with jagged scars across their necks and backs, and others whose allegiances were harder to place.They had one thing in common: they had been waiting.One of the women, cloaked in deep crimson, stepped forward.“
The battle had quieted—but not stilled.Wolves circled the bloodied courtyard, wary and wounded. Naia crouched over Mara’s unconscious form, whispering healing chants. Luka paced like a caged animal, his torn clothes soaked in blood, his amber eyes flicking to the heart of the destruction.To her.Emilia stood in the center, unrecognizable.Her once clean dress was soaked scarlet, hanging off her like shredded silk. Her eyes weren’t hers—gold, glowing, distant, maddened. Her breathing came in soft hisses, feral and wild. Magic shimmered around her skin like a mirage, crackling and unstable.Thalia stepped forward.Quietly. Gently.Hands raised in surrender.Her voice was calm, laced with the delicate edge of fear and love.“Emilia… sweetheart, please. I know you’re still in there.”No answer.Just the wind, rustling the broken leaves across the blood-soaked ground.“I know it hurts,” Thalia whispered, inching closer. “I know what it’s like to be consumed by power. But this—this isn’t
The courtyard reeked of blood and scorched magic.Dante stumbled backward as Mara's wolf form leapt between him and the blaze of Emilia’s next spell. The impact knocked him off his feet, the heat licking his face as he landed hard against the stone floor.Mara skidded beside him, shifting back to human form, skin seared along her ribs. “She tried to kill you,” she rasped, coughing through the pain. “That was meant for you, Dante.”He could barely process her words. The only thing he saw was Emilia—her silhouette standing tall in the middle of the destruction, her eyes gleaming like twin suns of wrath.A woman on fire.And all of it—every breath of fury—was directed at him."She..." Dante shook his head, trying to deny what he'd felt. The way her magic had zeroed in on his heartbeat. There’d been no hesitation. No restraint.He clutched at his chest, the ache of their bond twisting like a knife inside him.“Dante!” Luka’s voice roared from across the battlefield. “Get out of here! We’l
The door clicked shut quietly behind Dante.Emilia didn’t turn. She stood on the balcony, the wind gently tugging at her hair as she leaned forward on the railing. The moonlight traced her silhouette, making her look almost ethereal—almost unreachable.He stood there for a moment, watching her. The
The scent of blood had barely left the battlefield when the news began to spread.Whispers at first—fleeting things carried on the wind and between trembling lips.Victor was dead.Dante had won.The victory echoed through the clans like a thunderclap. It rolled across the mountains, crossed rivers
The room was silent except for the sound of Emilia’s breath, steady but shallow. The pendant lay cold and unmoving in her palm now, its visions finally still. She had forced herself to look—again and again—until she could memorize every terrible image Lenora wanted her to see.Dante, defeated. The
The wind whispered through the dense trees as Emilia trudged beside Mochi, her feet sore and heavy, her body still aching from the transformation. Her clothes were torn, her hands scraped, but she barely noticed. The pain was dull compared to the storm inside her mind.They had escaped Lenora’s pri
