The Master's wife

Warning: mature readers only, it contains violence and explicit content. Leah has spent her entire life trapped inside the Sanctuary, a secret cult ruled by a man its followers call The Master. Raised to obey without question, taught to fear the outside world, and forbidden from thinking for herself, Leah knows only one future awaits girls like her, marriage and submission. She is forced to become the newest wife of the man who controls the cult with fear, manipulation, and bloodshed. But before the ceremony night ends, gunfire tears through the Sanctuary and Leah is kidnapped. Taken by Santos De Luca, a ruthless mafia don feared across the criminal underworld, Leah is thrown into a world she doesn’t understand — luxury, violence, freedom, and danger. Santos believes Leah holds secrets connected to the Master’s criminal empire and the powerful people protecting it, but the trembling girl he kidnaps is nothing like he expected. Leah is painfully naive, terrified of the outside world, frightened even by her own reflection, and haunted by years of control inside the cult. Yet beneath her fear hides a dangerous secret powerful enough to destroy empires. As enemies close in and dark truths begin unraveling, Leah finds herself caught between two monsters, the man who owned her and the man who stole her. But Santos soon realizes something even more dangerous than war, protecting Leah is becoming an obsession.
