  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   What the Broker Knew

    The attacker died before the medical team could stabilize him, taking with him whatever more specific details he might have offered, and Enzo received the news of Marcus Kane's possible involvement with a stillness that Ethan had come to understand, over the last two days, meant genuine and dangerous fury lurking just beneath the surface.The study still smelled faintly of smoke from the earlier fire, or perhaps that was simply Ethan's imagination, his senses so overloaded by the last twenty four hours that every room in this house now carried some residue of violence whether it had actually happened there or not. Enzo stood behind his desk rather than at the window this time, a change in posture that felt deliberate, the posture of a man preparing to give orders rather than absorb bad news quietly."You're certain of the name," Enzo said, standing in his study amid the aftermath of the attack, security still sweeping the grounds outside, the smell of smoke and gunfire still

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   Through the Gate, Under Fire

    Ethan had never in his life driven the way Nico drove through the last mile of the estate's private road, tires skidding on wet pavement, headlights cutting through smoke that shouldn't have been visible from this far out, the distant crack of gunfire growing louder with every second that passed.He had spent most of the drive from Sorensen's apartment in a kind of numb, focused silence, his mind refusing to fully process what they'd found in that back bedroom, his body running entirely on adrenaline and fear for a woman who was, at that exact moment, somewhere he couldn't see or protect. He kept his phone gripped in one hand, screen dark since the call had dropped, willing it to light up again with her name, and when it didn't, he made himself stop staring at it and focus on the road instead, because staring at a silent phone wasn't going to get them there any faster."Stay in the car when we arrive," Nico said, voice tight with focus, weapon already drawn and resting acros

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   The Safe Room

    Isabella sat on the floor of the estate's safe room with her back against a reinforced steel wall, listening to muffled gunfire echo somewhere beyond the thick concrete, and understood, with a clarity that felt almost peaceful in its terror, exactly how much of her old life she'd genuinely forgotten how to survive.The room had been built decades ago, before she was born, stocked with supplies, a satellite phone, a small cot, everything a person might need to wait out a siege without ever knowing how long it would last. She had hidden in this exact room twice as a child, both times during conflicts she'd been too young to understand, both times emerging afterward to a house that pretended, carefully and completely, that nothing had happened at all. Nobody had explained those days to her back then. She remembered only being handed a blanket and a juice box, and being told to be a good girl and stay quiet, as if the whole thing were a game with rules she wasn't important enough to know.

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   The Man Who Knew Too Much

    Sorensen's apartment sat above a quiet dry cleaner's shop three blocks from the harbor, the kind of unremarkable building a man spends thirty one years learning to disappear into, and Ethan arrived there at two in the morning with Nico beside him and a dread in his chest that had only deepened during the drive.Neither of them had spoken much on the way over. Nico drove fast and quiet, taking corners with the kind of controlled aggression Ethan was beginning to understand was simply how the man operated under pressure, every motion economical, nothing wasted on conversation that didn't need to happen. Ethan spent the drive replaying every phone call he'd ever had with Sorensen, searching for some detail he might have missed, some sign the man had been in danger before tonight that Ethan had simply been too focused on his own crisis to notice.The building looked exactly like what Sorensen had probably wanted it to look like, forgettable, the kind of place nobody remembered passing on

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   Two Calls in the Same Hour

    Daniel found Ethan in the estate's guest wing shortly after midnight, having driven the entire forty minutes from the city with Vivian's call still ringing in his ears, and the look on his face was enough to tell Ethan, before a single word was spoken, that whatever news he carried was serious.He'd broken the speed limit twice on the drive over, something Daniel Reyes never did, a man who kept his car serviced on schedule and his seatbelt fastened before the engine even turned over, the kind of careful habits that had made him useful to Ethan for eleven years precisely because they extended to everything else in his life too. Tonight he'd driven like a man who understood, somewhere underneath the panic, that speed limits were built for a version of the world that no longer applied to him."Vivian called me," Daniel said without preamble, dropping into the room's only other chair like his legs had simply stopped agreeing to hold him upright. "She's terrified, Ethan, and I th

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REJECTED WIFE WAS THE MAFIA HEIRESS   What Marcus Was Selling

    Marcus Kane sat in his corner office forty floors above the city, watching the market close on another brutal day for Blackwood Industries stock, and allowed himself a small, private smile that he would have denied to anyone who asked about it.He had built this office slowly, over fifteen years, the same way he'd built everything else in his career, one careful advantage stacked on top of another until the sum of them looked, from the outside, like simple talent instead of what it actually was. He had watched Ethan Blackwood get every advantage handed to him early, the capital, the reputation, the easy trust of investors who liked a confident face more than a careful one, and he had told himself for years that patience would eventually correct the imbalance. Watching the stock ticker bleed red across his screen felt, finally, like patience paying off.His phone buzzed. A message from a contact he'd been cultivating carefully for the last six weeks, ever since he'd first und
