— THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH —

The strong steel doors of the main control room slammed open. Lucian practically pushed Vivienne inside surrounded by four of his best De Vitis guards. The small concrete room smelled of old coffee and metal. Only the cold blinking blue light from thirty screens lit the space.

Outside loud gunshots and deep blasts tore through the morning air. The Volkov Syndicate came ready for war but the De Vitis family stood like a solid wall of iron.

    VIVIENNE’S POVThe private gaming room inside the Casino de Monte‑Carlo smelled of vintage champagne, expensive cigars, and unfathomable wealth.I leaned back in my velvet armchair, dressed in a backless, floor‑length emerald silk dress that dragged along the polished marble. My diamond tactical blade was strapped securely against my inner thigh, while my mother’s gold Sovereign signet ring caught the glint of the crystal chandeliers overhead.Across the green felt table, Lucian sat like a bored, predatory king. He was dressed in a crisp black tuxedo, his jacket unbuttoned, his tie loosened just enough to look dangerously unhinged.A French duke sitting two seats down from me had been staring at my exposed back for the last twenty minutes. He leaned toward me, a patronizing smirk on his face.“You look far too delicate to be playing at a ten‑million‑euro table, mademoiselle,” the duke purred, sliding a stack of black chips forward. “Perhaps I could buy you a drink instead?”Before I c

    VIVIENNE’S POVThick white smoke filled the big room. It was hard to breathe. The powerful men of the High Board were screaming and running around. They had just demanded half of everything we owned, and now they were afraid.Gunfire rained down from the balcony above."Shooters are up there!" I called out, my voice steady even with the smoke stinging my eyes."I will handle this floor!" Lucian shouted through the fog.He did not hide. He moved forward with great strength. He fired his gun into the smoke and struck every attacker before they could hurt anyone below.I did not stay to hide. I pulled up the side of my long white dress and took out my sharp blade. I ran up the stairs toward the balcony.A man in heavy armor turned and raised his gun at me. I moved fast before he could shoot. I struck him with my blade, took his gun, and cleared the whole upper balcony.Down below, I saw Lord Sterling hiding under the big table. He was shaking like a scared child.I jumped down from the b

    VIVIENNE’S POV Rain fell hard on the yacht deck, but the gunfire did not stop. BANG! BANG! BANG! The Phantoms were the High Board’s best killers. They thought they could sneak up on us in the dark. They did not know they were walking into a trap set by a Don and his Empress. Lucian moved fast through the storm. He fought with great strength and took down three men quickly. I moved quietly along the side of the boat. I struck one guard with my blade, took his gun, and cleared the other side. In four minutes, all the attackers were dead on the wet wood. Lucian pushed the last body into the sea. He turned to me, his eyes burning with anger and care. He did not check the area. He did not watch the helicopter fly away. He walked to me, held my waist tight, and led me quickly into our private room. He closed and locked the heavy door. LUCIAN’S POV The door shut, and the sound of the ocean faded. My blood was still hot from the fight. I gently pushed Vivienne against the bed. I ch

    VIVIENNE’S POVBOOM!Fire shot up from our private jet. Bright orange light filled the dark sky. Pieces of metal fell all around us like burning stones. Rain was pouring hard on the ground.Lucian and I did not even blink."Twenty million euros," Lucian said quietly. His eyes were fixed on the men coming toward us through the smoke. "I bought that jet four months ago, my love.""I will buy you a bigger one with the money your father stole," I said with a smile. I held my sharp blade and turned it in my hand. "Now stop complaining and help me fight these men.""As you wish, my Queen," Lucian said.We moved together like one strong force. Lucian fought with great power. He moved fast and struck hard. He used his blade and his gun to protect me and push the enemies back.I moved through the fight with careful steps. I ducked under a gun, struck the man, took his gun, and shot before they even saw me clearly.A bullet touched my sleeve. Lucian saw it and became very angry. He caught the m

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH — VIVIENNE’S POV The sirens inside the Borghese Palace flashed bright red. The light looked like blood on the stone pillars. BANG! BANG! BANG! Lucian fought with all his strength. He wore his nice black suit and held his mask in one hand. He moved fast through the dark halls. Every shot he fired hit one of Leo’s men. He stood right in front of me to keep me safe while bullets hit the walls around us. "Watch your left side, ma chérie!" Lucian shouted over the loud noise. I did not get scared. I ducked down when a man swung his gun at me. I pushed my knife into his leg. I took his gun and kicked him away. I fired at the men running toward us. "Good shot, Queen!" Lucian said with a dark smile. He loaded more bullets with one hand. Suddenly the shooting stopped. The speakers around the room made a loud noise. A voice started playing. It was Leo’s voice, recorded two years ago. "You are buying her for one reason, Lucian," the voi

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH — VIVIENNE’S POV The private jet banked sharply over the ancient, rain-slicked skyline of Rome. Below us lay the sprawling citadel of the De Vitis dynasty—a fortress of marble, blood, and centuries of dark Italian rule. In the master cabin of the jet, Lucian stood over me, his dark gray eyes lit with unhinged, protective fire. He knelt on one knee in front of my velvet chair, his massive hands carefully securing a custom leather thigh holster beneath the hem of my sleek black silk dress. "My father is not Elder Vane, ma chérie," Lucian rumbled softly, his thumb sliding against the exposed skin of my upper thigh as he checked the diamond tactical blade in the sheath. "Leo De Vitis doesn't throw tantrum leaks. He is a spider. He spins traps and waits for you to step into his web." I leaned forward, cupping his harsh jaw in my hands. "Then it's a good thing he’s dealing with us." Lucian looked up, a dark, possessive smirk curving
