PROLOGUE“M y wife.” As he whispered those words into my ear, his warm breath seared my sensitiveskin. He pumped into me with slow, powerful thrusts. My nails dug into his muscles, the grip tight and every sensation within me burning with need. His voice was cocky and possessive.“Say you are mine,” he demanded.Just like the night we met, his gaze sent a blaze through my body and heat brushed through every inch of my skin.

Luciano pulled me closer to him and all thoughts of my family evaporated. Bending his head, heshowered kisses against my neck, whispering the naughty things we would do the moment we got back home. Shivers of delight ran through my spine and desire pooled between my thighs. My body burned with an inferno only he knew how to set off. He knew it would be on my mind throughout dinner.

Unforgiving king.Just ask my fucking wife who has been missing for the past three years and six months. The memory of the betrayal still tasted bitter. But one good thing came out of it; my heart was as hard as the Arctic ice.It had been three years and six months since the full-blown war erupted between the Vitale and the Romano family. The war between our two families started when the Romano family killed my mother and sister. Attacks, lives lost, fortunes burned... But it was that last betrayal that drove me insane.

Some even lost their lives.I won, and the people who were on my side flourished and became wealthy beyond their wildest dreams. My empire grew tenfold. People
