But when her father's crushing debts catch up with him, he makes the ultimate betrayal—he trades Ava to a ruthless crime syndicate. Just when all hope seems lost, the most feared man in the underworld steps in. Lucian Ashford. A cold, untouchable mafia king whose name alone makes powerful men tremble.

As their forced marriage slowly turns into something neither of them expected, a new danger emerges. Lucian's own brother becomes captivated by Ava, threatening to tear the Ashford family apart. And when a rival mafia organization kidnaps her to destroy Lucian, he'll have to decide just how much blood he's willing to spill for the woman he swore was only his responsibility. In a world ruled by loyalty, betrayal, and violence, can love survive... or will it become the deadliest weakness of all? He claimed her to protect her. He never expected to lose his heart.

“Seduce Diablo or die.” With my life already falling apart, this was the last thing I needed—the cherry on top of the cake. I had one job: infiltrate Diablo’s casa, win his trust, and gather enough information to destroy him. Simple. Until I got closer to the man himself. The more I learned about him, the harder it became to separate the ruthless devil everyone feared from the man I was beginning to see beneath the surface. Esteban was a devil by day, but behind closed doors, he revealed a side of himself no one else seemed to know. He had a way of making me forget why I had been sent to his casa. But even the devil had ghosts that refused to stay buried—a woman whose memory continued to fuel his vengeance. Would he ever be able to let go of the past? As the attraction between us grew into something neither of us could ignore, I faced a dangerous question: Was I falling for the very man I had been sent to destroy, and would my feelings cost me everything?

Synopsis: Fifty years old, No heir. For twenty-five years, Lorenzo De Luca has ruled New York's underworld with absolute power. Feared as the ruthless head of the De Luca Crime Family, he has everything a man could desire—wealth, influence, and an empire built on fear. Yet behind his cold exterior lies one silent regret. After suffering a near-fatal injury in his youth, Lorenzo was told he could never father children, convincing him that his bloodline would end with him. Everything changes after an assassination attempt leaves him wounded and suffering from a powerful neurotoxin. Escaping into the service corridors of an exclusive private club, he is rescued by Isabella Carvalho, a twenty-four-year-old Brazilian graduate architecture student working as an event coordinator to pay her tuition and support her widowed mother back home. Unaware of his true identity, Isabella risks everything to save a stranger's life. During one unforgettable night, two lonely hearts find comfort in each other before parting ways without exchanging their real names. Three months later, Isabella discovers she is pregnant. As she struggles to protect her unborn child while pursuing her dreams, Lorenzo uncovers shocking evidence proving he is finally going to become a father. But the miracle comes at a devastating price. Hidden enemies, rival mafia families, and traitors within his own organization will stop at nothing to eliminate the child destined to inherit the De Luca empire. Forced together by danger, Lorenzo vows to protect Isabella and their unborn baby at all costs. But winning her trust proves far more difficult than defeating his enemies. As long-buried secrets, betrayals, and a decades-old conspiracy surrounding his false infertility diagnosis begin to unravel, Lorenzo must choose between the empire he spent a lifetime building and the family he never believed he could have.
