**He was her dream. Now he’s her nightmare.** Madeleine never forgot the man from the gardens. Five years ago, Dom was her fleeting escape. A quiet, thoughtful soul who saw her as more than just a girl in a convent. They whispered dreams under the moonlight, shared stolen moments that meant nothing and everything. Then he vanished, leaving her questioning everything. Now, trapped in the world she swore she’d never belong to, she comes face-to-face with the man who once made her believe in something pure. But Dom doesn’t exist. In his place stands Rafael Andoletti. A ruthless mafia don who rules with fear. A man whispered about in the darkest corners of the city. The man who just forced her to drink poison in a room full of criminals. At first, she’s just another threat to him. A would-be assassin. Then he remembers her, and he spares her life. Rafael never wanted this life. He was forced into this world of darkness, but seeing Madeleine ignites one undeniable truth. He’ll never let her go. She’s horrified by the monster he became. He’s consumed by the woman who gives him a glimpse of the man he could have been. She wants to run. He won’t allow it. Because she was always meant to be his… and Rafael is ready to burn the world down to keep her.

“Pose for the portrait, Anna,” her uncle commanded. To the world, Anna was a masterpiece—beautiful, flawless, and untouchable. But behind the luxury and perfect smiles, she was a prisoner. Her uncle controlled her life, using her image as a tool for influence and power, trapping her in a world she could not escape. Anna had given up on being saved… until he appeared. A man disguised as a priest, mysterious and dangerously compelling, stepped into her world like a forbidden secret wrapped in holy robes. From the moment they met, something inside Anna began to shift—curiosity, tension, and emotions she was never allowed to feel. But he was not what he seemed. He came with a mission. As hidden truths about his past come to light, he discovers that Anna’s uncle is connected to a history of betrayal, violence, and revenge. What began as deception slowly turns into something far more dangerous. Now, with forbidden emotions growing between them and long-buried secrets resurfacing, Anna is caught between salvation and destruction. What will happen when her uncle discovers the truth? And what happens when the man she was never supposed to trust turns out to be connected to the very darkness hunting her family? In a world built on lies, faith, and power—nothing is truly holy.

After eight years trapped in a cruel Catholic orphanage, Anna never expected her freedom to come at the hands of dangerous Mafia men. The father of the family that adopted her is a ruthless Mafia lord. In his world, kindness has a price, and nothing is done without reason. And his two sons are both deadly attractive. Leandro is very good at making Anna forget where she is. He treats her like she belongs, but his affection hides secrets just as dangerous as his father’s world. Giovanni is the opposite--cold, disciplined, and bound by duty just like his father. Yet behind his sharp words and quiet glances, the tension between him and Anna sparks into something neither of them can deny. Caught between the two brothers, Anna's hidden desire begins to surface. In a house built on lies and power, love might be the most dangerous game of all.

I had two fathers. One was Vincenzo, who was gentle and cultured. The other was Matteo, who was called "Il Diavolo Sanguinario", meaning the bloodthirsty devil, by everyone. Both were men my grandfather, Don Rossi, had chosen for my mother, Sofia. In my last life, my mother had chosen Vincenzo, thinking he was the man she could trust for the rest of her life. But after a woman called Carla came between them, he grew colder toward my mother and me. He took Carla's side and became convinced that my mother had drugged him on purpose and slept with other men. In his eyes, I was a bastard whose father was unknown. After my grandpa passed away, Carla framed my mother repeatedly. Vincenzo would let her get away with it every time. He had even forced my mother to apologize and locked us in the basement, to the point of starving to death in the end! When I opened my eyes again, I was back at my fifth birthday party. My grandpa was still gravely ill, and he was urging my mother to make a choice. "Sofia, whoever you choose will inherit everything in the Rossi family and protect you and Lia in my place." Mom held me in her arms, hesitant to make a decision. I pointed at the man everyone called the Diavolo Sanguinario. "Pick him! Only he can protect us!"

Rosalia Marina was eighteen when her father sold her to clear his debts. By twenty, she was no longer just another girl trapped in a trafficking house, she was chosen. Auctioned into a marriage she never consented to, Rosalia becomes the wife of a powerful mafia patriarch who believes ownership is the same as salvation. In his home, she learns how to survive by silence, patience, and control, even as her body is treated like a debt that must be repaid. A year later, everything changes when his son returns to claim his place as heir. Cold, judgmental, and determined not to become his father, he sees Rosalia as a woman who traded herself for power. What begins as contempt slowly fractures into something far more dangerous, desire neither of them can afford. Torn between guilt, longing, and the quiet mission she has carried since the day she was sold, Rosalia must decide whether survival is enough, or if destroying the system that enslaved her will cost her the only man who ever truly sees her. In a world where loyalty is currency and love is betrayal, wanting the wrong person can be fatal.

“Do you know how many nights I’ve thought about those? How I imagined sliding your dress up and seeing you in them… in my room, or my office… gagged so you wouldn’t scream my name?” “Say the word, Renata,” he whispered, voice rough. “And I’ll have you right here… where anyone could knock. Where you could get caught with your husband’s father’s cock inside you.” She gasped. But she didn’t say no. ******** One reckless night. A stranger’s touch. Her ruin. The night before her wedding, Renata surrendered to a man whose name she didn’t know… A man who made her tremble, moan, and beg for more in the shadows.

The killer is hiding behind the walls of the Hidalgo empire. Santiago, her charming husband, has secrets. Lady Constanza, his mother, wears lies like pearls. And Domingo? He’s the darkest of them all. Now Renata’s playing with fire, and carrying a secret that could burn everyone: She’s pregnant. And she doesn’t know if the father is her husband… or his father.
