LOGINIsabella Monroy is hours away from marrying the man she loves — until the night before the wedding turns into a nightmare. After her best friend secretly spikes her drink, Isabella wakes up in the wrong room, half-dressed, with a dangerously handsome stranger stepping out of the bathroom. Her fiancé and her guests witness her leaving the room. And that cost her wedding and reputation. The stranger is Dante Moretti — a seductive billionaire who is secretly the ruthless King of Mafia, known as Draco. Their encounter had been a complete misunderstanding… or so they both thought. Weeks later, with her life in ruins, Isabella runs into Dante again. Sparks and hate collide. Dante is amused by her anger, drawn to her fire, and refuses to stay away. But when a rival mafia faction uses Isabella as leverage, Dante’s true identity comes to light. As danger encircles her, Isabella uncovers the truth: her best friend Camila and her fiancé Sebastian betrayed her. The “accidental” night was a setup meant to trap her. Now forced into Dante’s dangerous world for protection, Isabella battles her feelings for the man who ruined her life… and then saved it. Their chemistry turns explosive, their enemies grow ruthless, and their pasts collide in blood, passion, and betrayal. But that only made Dante more obsessed.

“One more shot, Bella,” Camila insisted, her grin impossibly wide. I rolled my eyes, but I couldn’t stop the small smile that tugged at my lips. “Fine,” I said, raising the glass. The alcohol burned going down, but the warmth spread through me, mingling with the nervous excitement of tomorrow. My wedding day. “See? That wasn’t so bad,” Camila teased, clinking her glass against mine. “Now, take another. You’ll thank me later.” I obeyed, the room spinning slightly, with faint laughter buzzing around me. Emily was perched on the sofa, shaking her head but smiling fondly. “Why did you get so much drunk, Bella? Well, i’m sleepy.” She said while standing up. “See you tomorrow, okay?” I barely registered her words. The warmth inside me had begun to twist into something more… urgent and distracting. I was horny. My body was reacting in ways that made my cheeks burn. “I… I can’t… stand,” I murmured, swaying on my heels. My legs felt like jelly. Camila caught me effortlessly. “Relax. I’ll take you to your room. You need to rest. You know how important tomorrow is.” “No,” I protested weakly, my voice small but laced with desire I couldn’t control. “I… I need to see Sebastian. Now. I want him…right now!” She smirked, teasing, “Can’t you wait till tomorrow? By then you guys are officially married.” I laughed breathlessly, feeling a heat I couldn’t contain. “It’s not like we’ve never did it before—My words faltered. I wasn’t seeing clearly so I nearly collapsed, but Camila’s strong hands held me steady. Step by unsteady step, she guided me down the corridor. I barely saw Emily wave before she disappeared. After walking for sometime, we finally stopped in front of the room. Camila held the door handle and swung it open. “Here,” Camila said, pushing me gently forward. “Sebastian room like you said. I’ll… just leave you here.” The door clicked behind me, but i was too drunk to even say good night to her. My pulse thundered as the heat in me became more intense. The room smelled faintly of linen and something else… intoxicating. And then I saw a figure standing at the other side of the room. That was him. Sebastian’s back was facing me. So I couldn’t see his face. But the view of him just intensified the feelings making my panty soak with the liquid coming out of me. My body acted before my brain could even protest. I lunged forward with my eyes closed. My desire taking full control. My hands tangled in his shirt as my lips pressed against his desperately. My heart raced, every nerve in me was on fire. I started undressing him, losing all sense of caution, all sense of self control… I pushed him to the bed and climbed on top of him. I would have allowed him to undress me too, but i was too impatient for that. The heat of desire in me would not let me wait. When my boobs came in view, Sebastian loose control and grasp them eagerly. I could feel the way his teeth grazed my nipple and the way his thumb fondled with the other one. The feeling was out of this world which made me arced my back, pushing it more to his face. I could feel my pant dripping in anticipation. From there, i just let him have me his way. Then darkness. When I opened my eyes, it was morning already. The sunlight cut through the curtains, harsh and bright. My head throbbed from last night, and my body also ached. My clothes were scattered all over the place. I tried to take in the environment but something wasn’t adding up. I froze, trying to piece together the fragments of the night before. I was in supposedly Sebastian room, but this room wasn’t his. Yes , i was sure of that because I’ve been there quite a few times when we lodge. And then I saw him emerging from the bathroom, the person i spend the night with. But it wasn’t Sebastian. I gasped. “Who… are you?” Realization hitting me. The man looked surprised with my question. He looked at me with his hand akimbo, towel dangerously wrapped around his waist. How did i end up here? I tried to remember how i ended up there but my memory wasn’t cooperating. It then hit me, today is my wedding, which will take place in some few hours. And here i am, in a strangers room. My scattered clothes and the rough bed were enough to tell me how crazy the night before went. But there’s no time to think, i have to get out of the place as soon as possible. I quickly picked my clothes and rushed to the bathroom the man just came out of. I get dressed and ran out, picking my heels before dashing out. But the moment i stepped out, my fiancé and two other men were there. I froze in shock not knowing what to say. Sebastian looked surprised seeing me like that. But before i could find something to say. The door behind me open, and the stranger i spent the night with came into view.Isabella’s pov Camilla had barely parked my bag in our apartment before she turned to me, her eyes soft but heavy with concern.“Bella… I’m sorry, dear. I think you should rest,” she said, voice gentle. “Stop thinking about all this. If he’s meant for you, he’ll come back. You guys… you’ll reconcile. Just… rest, okay?”I nodded numbly, the words barely registering. She was right, of course. Maybe he would come back. But right now… my chest felt like it had been hollowed out, leaving a raw, aching emptiness. I didn’t even have the energy to argue.Camilla gave me a quick, awkward hug, ruffling my hair like she used to when we were kids. “Promise me you’ll try to rest. And Bella… don’t blame yourself too much, okay?”I tried to nod again, but the lump in my throat made it impossible. She gave me a final pat on the shoulder, smiled weakly, and left. The door clicked shut behind her, leaving me in silence.I sank down onto the sofa, pressing my face into my hands. Every inch of my body w
Dante’s povI opened the door simply because she forgot her payment.But the moment the door swung open, I walked straight into a scene I didn’t expect.Some man — clearly furious and unhinged — was standing in the hallway, pointing at the woman I had just slept with.His voice was raised, his veins were popping.“So this is what you do the night before our wedding? You sleep with another man?”I blinked once.What kind of nonsense…?The woman — the woman tried to explain but couldn’t, so she whipped around to look at me like I was her salvation.Explain?To who?For what?I stared at her for half a second.Her hair was still messy from the night, and i was half naked with just a towel around my waist.And this man looked like he was about to strangle her on the spot.Nope.Absolutely not.Whatever this drama was, it wasn’t mine.So I did the simplest, cleanest thing possible.I shut the door.And for a moment, I just stood there, the silence pressing against the door like the world o
Isabella’s pov The words hit me like a hammer, shattering my chest into a thousand jagged pieces. I froze, unable to breathe. My legs and hand felt weak and numb. He was standing there, calm in his resolve, cold in a way that made my heart ache more than the physical pain of seeing him turn away. “No, Sebastian… please. You’re… you can’t just—” I tried to reach for him, but he didn’t flinch. Sebastian moved toward the corner of the room where his luggage sat waiting. My heart plummeted. That suitcase, sleek and dark, now… it would carry Sebastian out of my life. Camila stepped forward, her voice shaking as she tried to intervene. “Sebastian, wait! Please! She didn’t know what she was doing. You can’t just end this now. We can fix this—maybe nothing happened in the room…maybe you were just overthinking.” I clutched her arm, tears streaming down my cheeks. “Camila… tell him! Please! You know me! You know I would never hurt him. The love i have for him wouldn’t let me do that!” Seb
The door behind me swung open. My heart skipped a beat, and I froze, caught between the panic of yesterday and the confusion of now.“Hey… you forgot—”The man, the stranger from last night, stepped out, but his words died on his lips. His eyes widened, scanning the hallway, confused, before finally landing on… Sebastian. My Sebastian. My fiancé.“Bella?” Sebastian’s voice was tight, sharp, disbelief and anger curling in every syllable. “What… what is this? What am I seeing?” I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. My tongue felt heavy, my words stuck in my throat. Heat flared in my cheeks as i tried to speak, i wanted to explain, but it sounded ridiculous even in my head. “I… I can’t… it’s not…it’s not what it looks like.. i promise.. Seb—“Sebastian took a step forward, eyes blazing. “Did you sleep with someone? On the day of our wedding? Isabella, is this how you’re going to humiliate me?”“No! No, no, no, it’s not like that. I can explain right now,” I stammered, my hands shakin
