Rhea Morreti, the female lead and the daughter of a Sicilian gang member; was meant to be a silent spy and was planted in the Vitale family to dismantle them from within, under the guise of an arranged marriage with Adriano Vitale, the son of a rival gang leader. But when her own brother, Dante, exposes her to further his own agenda, she becomes the scapegoat for a war she never planned to fight alone. Marked for execution, she barely escapes with her life—only to return stronger, deadlier, and carrying a secret that could shake the very foundation of their world. Even though Adriano Vitale never wanted the marriage, he didn’t want Rhea dead, especially since they had fallen for each other. Yet, when she disappears in a hail of bullets, presumed gone forever, he buries the past and focuses on the war threatening to consume his empire. That is, until she returns, not just as the woman he once knew, but as a force of vengeance, standing at his side against their common enemies. Dante, on the other hand, had spent years hiding a secret that fueled his ambition and his hatred for his family. As alliances shift and the truth unravels, Rhea and Adriano must navigate a treacherous world of lies, deception, and deadly rivalries. But the question remains. “With enemies lurking in the shadows and betrayal at every turn, will they uncover the truth before it’s too late, or will their unknown enemies destroy them before they get their revenge?”

“Adrian!”, the woman screamed “You know what? Today is your lucky day, so tell me exactly how you want me.” Adrian said to her amidst playing with her clit, teasing and rubbing it as she moaned With lightning speed, he pulled his fingers and inserted them into her wet pussy. She wasn’t expecting that, so she screamed. “Adrian, I want…” she moaned. She was already on edge as he fucked her intensely with his digits. She couldn’t say anything else but his name. She couldn’t even bring herself to make demands. He only stopped finger-fucking her when he saw her cum on his fingers. She was spent. “I’m gonna fuck you hard. This is just the beginning, so brace yourself, you whore.” Before she could reply, he pulled her closer to his face and buried his face in her chest. He latched his lips around her swollen nipples, which, in his opinion, had been calling out to him. He suckled on her breasts in fierce tugs like a hungry child on his mother’s breasts while his fingers hovered over her clit area, and before she could recover, she felt his massive dick in her. He thrust in deeply “Fuuuckk, you are so huge,” she moaned. He pounded her continuously and relentlessly, and he could see her breasts bouncing to the rhythm of their movement. On and on, they went. Just when she thought he was getting tired, Adrian pulled her up from the bed, turned her back to him, with her ass facing him, and pounded her from behind. The thrusts were so deep and fast, she was edging towards another climax. And just then, he moaned loudly, pulled his dick out of her cunt, and poured his cum all over her back. They both fell onto the bed, breathing heavily, thanks to the marathon sex they just had. Hours later, the woman beside him, a striking blonde with legs long enough to wrap around his waist twice, traced her fingers over his chest, her lips hovering over his jaw. “Stay the night,” she murmured, pressing herself closer, ensuring he felt the full weight of her breasts. Her fingers curled into his hair as she started to kiss him passionately, shifting her body against his as if she wanted another round of the steamy sex they just had. Adrian exhaled slowly, amused. They always did this. They whispered sweet words and tried to convince themselves they were special. He shifted, pulling away. “You got what you wanted, sweetheart.” He reached for his cigarette on the nightstand, lighting it with an effortless flick of his lighter. “Don’t make this something it’s not.” Her face twisted, disappointment flashing in her eyes before she quickly masked it. “You’re a real bastard, Vitale.” Taking a slow drag. “And yet, you still came. You can’t seem to have enough of this bastard.” She scoffed, grabbing her dress from the floor. “Go to hell.” Adrian watched her storm out, completely unbothered. He had no time for clingy women, no patience for the ones who thought they could change him. A vibration from his phone drew his attention. He glanced at the screen. It was Marco, his best friend and right-hand man. “Tell me this is important,” Adrian said as he answered. “You might want to get your ass to Noir.” Adrian took another slow drag of his cigarette. “Why?” “Because half our guys are there,” Marco said. “And the other half? The Morettis.” Adrian’s smirk faded. “Fuck.” He stubbed out the cigarette, dressed, and headed out. In Club Noir, a high-end club for the rich, the music was loud but not deafening. The air was thick with perfume, sweat, and the smell of expensive whiskey. Noir was one of the few neutral grounds in the city, a place where mafia leaders and their men alike drowned their sins in alcohol and distraction. However, tonight was different; it was alive with energy, laughter, and celebration. Rhea Moretti turned twenty-three today. Enrico Moretti, her father, made sure to secure a private VIP section exclusively for their family and most trusted men. The booths were filled with Moretti soldiers, glasses clinking frequently and a few cheers here and there. Dressed in an elegant, form-fitting black dress that shimmered under the dim neon lights, Rhea swirled her glass of wine, her painted lips curving in a faint smile. Her 23rd birthday was meant to be a celebration, a night of luxury and indulgence. “Happy birthday, principessa,” Izzy shouted to her sister, clinking their glasses together before taking a sip. “I can’t wait for this night to be over, Izzy.” “Oh, come on. What’s not to love? Booze, music, men staring at you like they want—” “Men staring at me like I’m their next kill, you mean?” Rhea cut her short. “Well, I don’t mind a bit of male gaze myself.” Izzy insisted. Rhea was unhappy on her 23rd birthday because earlier that day, she had gone to visit her boyfriend of 2 years, and she caught him in bed having sex with her childhood best friend, and it shattered her. She spent the whole day crying and only came out to the club because her father had made prior arrangements for her birthday celebration. She was in no mood to socialize or be cheerful, as her sister suggested. Across the room, past the flickering neon lights and the pulse of bodies moving to the music, the Vitales were here, too. Adrian Vitale strode through the club’s entrance like he owned it, his dark eyes scanning the crowd as Marco, his right-hand man, leaned in with a low warning. “They’re here.” Adrian’s gaze flickered toward the VIP section, where Rhea sat with a drink in her hand; she was smiling at something her sister, Izzy, had said. She didn’t look like the daughter of a mafia boss right now. She looked soft, almost untouchable under the dim glow of the club light. He looked around smirking before he saw Dante Moretti, who in turn saw him. Rhea’s older brother, Dante, lifted his glass in a mock toast, his fake smile oozing disdain. “Didn’t think you’d have the guts to show up here, Adrian,” he called across the room, voice carrying over the music. Adrian, on the verge of sipping his whiskey, hesitated momentarily, allowing the tension to intensify. Then he smiled slowly; he knew his men were watching. “Didn’t think you’d still be alive after your last screw-up, but here we are,” replied Adrian Rhea exhaled through her nose. God, men and their egos. “Looks like your birthday just got interesting, sorella.” Dante said to his sister as he left their VIP booth to confront Adrian Adrian didn’t move at first. He watched with his jaw tight as Dante Moretti stepped forward, flanked by his own men. “What did you say to me, motherfucker?” Dante asked him, stepping towards angrily as though looking for a fight. Before anyone knew what was happening, all hell broke loose. A Moretti soldier slammed a Vitale soldier against the bar, sending glasses shattering to the floor. A gun was drawn, but before it could be fired, another man tackled him, sending them both crashing into a table. Chairs scraped back. Glasses shattered. Men lunged at each other, snarling like caged animals set free. Gunshots were fired. 2 men were shot dead, and multiple were left wounded. The club’s owner was furious. Not that it mattered. No one dared to throw out the Morettis or the Vitales—not unless they had a death wish. Within minutes, the bouncers managed to separate the fighting men, but the damage was done. Bruised faces, blood-stained expensive suits, and a message that rang loud and clear: the war between the Morettis and the Vitales was only getting worse. Something had to be done. *** The next day, in a heavily guarded private estate, two men faced each other across a long table. Enrico Moretti and Victor Vitale, the heads of their respective families, both carrying the weight of decades of power. The air was thick with cigar smoke as two of the most powerful men in the Sicilian underworld sat across from each other. Adrian and Dante stood behind their fathers, silent but watchful. Around them, trusted advisors and high-ranking men from both families remained still, waiting for the verdict. The fight in the club had been an embarrassment. A public display of their inability to control their own men. And that could not be tolerated. Enrico Moretti was the first to speak. His voice was low, deep with authority. “What happened last night was reckless.” His gaze flickered toward Dante. “And unnecessary.” Victor Vitale exhaled slowly. “We both knew this was inevitable. Our families have been in conflict with each other for an extended period. Enrico nodded. “Which is why we end it now.” Victor leaned forward. “And how do you propose we do that?” Enrico’s expression hardened. “Through blood.” The room went deathly silent. Dante already knew where this was going. Adrian, however, let out a sharp, humorless laugh. “You mean to tell me, after years of war, you want us to play house?” Enrico’s voice was cold. “You have an objection?” Adrian’s jaw clenched, but he said nothing. Victor’s eyes met Enrico’s. “Your daughter. My son. A marriage.” The words loomed over the room like a dire warning. Adrian remained impassive, but inside, his mind reeled. He’d known his father wanted a truce, but a marriage? A marriage presented an entirely different set of challenges. Enrico studied him, then nodded. “Rhea, my daughter, will marry Adrian.” There it was. The deal was sealed. This marriage has the potential to end a war. A marriage that neither bride nor groom had agreed to. And as Dante Moretti forced a smirk, his mind was already spinning because he had no The marriage was one that neither the bride nor the groom had agreed to. No, this was far from over. This was just the beginning.Come with me, Rhea," Alex pleaded, his eyes filled with a hopeful plea. "Forget your past and run away with me to a new life in America. They think you are dead, amore. That’s even better; you never have to worry about them again. Forget that world that corrupts and bleeds."Rhea’s hands, still held captive in his warm grip, felt suddenly cold. She looked down at their intertwined fingers, it reminded her of a life of normalcy. A life before the lies and betrayals.She lifted her gaze back to Alex, his face was etched in sincerity. He looked even more sincere than when he was apologizing for cheating on her. He really meant this."Alex," she began, her voice softer now, but laced with a resolve. "You know I care about you. What Adrian did to you… it haunts me. You didn’t deserve any of that."He squeezed her hands gently. "Then come with me. Let’s leave all this behind. We can heal together. Start fresh."Rhea pulled her hands away slowly and instinctively placed a protective hand ov
Punching the elevator buttons with shaky fingers, Rhea stepped in the moment the doors slid open. By the time the elevator stopped at her floor, she was already yanking off her coat. She ran straight to her room, shut the door, and stripped off her clothes in a rush. The hospital gown went over her head in seconds, and she slipped into the sheets.Almost immediately, Anya burst in, breathless.“Signora…boss is coming. I looked in the park, you’re not there.” She went looking for Rhea when she saw Dmitri.“It’s ok, Anya. I saw him already.” Rhea said.Anya looked at her in disbelief, but Rhea’s attention was on the hallway expecting Dmitri’s presence.It took a while before he actually got to her room. Maybe he stopped to have a talk with the doctor or some other person. “Devushka moya,” Dmitri said softly as he stepped inside.Rhea offered a tired smile, her hand instinctively moving to rest over her belly. “Hi.”He walked over, leaned down, and brushed a kiss on her forehead. “Ho
Rhea sat still, absorbing the weight of the information being thrown at her. Her mind raced, struggling to process the implications of it all. Her father’s death was barely a few weeks after her wedding to Adrian. Was it Dante’s doing? Dante never really bothered searching for who killed Enrico. He just said it was Adrian Vitale. Which was why he told her to remain in the Vitale household to spy on them and get information.He never planned for revenge because he did it himself. He just used her to try to strengthen his empire. If what he was planning had worked he would have succeeded in eliminating both Enrico, the one he had a grudge against, and the Vitales, his rivals in the business.Rhea blinked hard, her thoughts were in chaos. “If Enrico wasn’t Dante’s father…” she whispered, trying to piece it together. “That means…we aren’t related at all. I’m not even his sister.”She took a slow breath. At best, Dante would be her cousin. And Izzy…his half-sister since they shared a mo
“We need to meet.” Rhea glanced at her phone screen as she read the text from her P.I.Her heart raced slightly at the urgency in his tone. They had just met two days ago before her scare with the miscarriage that had landed her in the hospital. So much had happened in such a short time, and now he was calling for another meeting. What had he found out? And why the urgency?During her checkups, the doctor had told her she could go home on the third day. However, Rhea knew she needed a window to meet with the P.I. She knew that If she went home, even though eventually she would resume her normal activities she was sure Dmitri would not let her go out immediately after her discharge.“Can I stay an extra day or two?” she asked the doctor the next morning, flashing him a charming smile. “I don’t trust myself at home.”The doctor, one who had a soft spot for her, smiled back. “Of course, Signora Sofia,” he replied. “It’ll be my pleasure coming in to check on you every day.”Rhea gave a
Adrian was back home early the next morning after spending the night with a woman he hadn’t bothered learning her name. He headed straight to his study, running his hand lazily through his hair. He preferred to start business early in his home office and then proceed to meetings later in the day. He had just relaxed into his chair when he heard a soft tap against the door.“Come in.”Antoinette stepped in, she was dressed in a tight dress and perfectly made up at that hour. “Buongiorno, Signor. Shall I make you breakfast?”Adrian glanced at her briefly, his face blank before giving a low nod.“Just coffee.”Her lips curved into a smile. She hesitated, lingering in the doorway longer than necessary. “Of course.”For months after Rhea’s death, Antoinette had been angling for Adrian’s attention. She would linger a little too long, her dressing just a little too tight. Even though she was an attractive woman, Adrian didn’t look at her twiceStill, maybe one day, she told herself. One
Luca leaned forward, voice low. “I heard something… from someone close to Dante Moretti. Word is Dante wants to propose a marriage alliance with Selene.”Adrian’s jaw clenched.“That’s why I’m bringing her up, fratello. If the Morettis and Bianchis merge, they might actually become a greater force. You know Dante, he doesn’t play fair when he wants power.”Adrian let out a slow breath and set his glass down with a soft clink.“Well,” he said, voice calm and deadly, “neither of them have the business volume we do. Even if they merge.”Luca raised a brow, unconvinced.“Our world of mafia now isn’t what it used to be,” Adrian continued,m. “It’s not about family ties or who killed who’s father anymore. It’s about money and wealth. Whoever has both, has power. And whoever has power… has control.”He leaned back, tapping Luca’s shoulder firmly. “We fucking rule Sicily and even beyond, fratello.”Luca smirked. “That’s true.”Adrian reached for his drink again. “Just gave Governor Ricci twent
