First-Person POV Mafia Web Novels & Dominant Misunderstanding Stories

Sold to the Devil King I was supposed to become a bride. Instead, I watched my family die. On the night of my engagement, my father's most trusted ally and the man I was about to marry betrayed us. They slaughtered my family, stole our empire, drugged me, and sold me like I was nothing more than merchandise. They thought they had erased the last Moretti. They were wrong. At the underground auction, I was bought by the one man every criminal fears... Dante De Luca, the Devil King. The most ruthless mafia lord in Europe. A man whose name is whispered with terror. He didn't make me his mistress. He made me his maid. Now I serve the man everyone calls a monster while secretly searching for the truth behind my family's massacre. Every clue I uncover leads to another lie. Every ally hides a secret. Every step toward revenge brings me closer to a conspiracy far bigger than I ever imagined. The last thing I expected was the Devil himself becoming the only person standing between me and death. But in a world where loyalty is bought with blood and love is the deadliest weakness of all, trusting him may cost me everything... including my revenge. Because if the Devil discovers who I really am, will he help me reclaim my stolen crown... ...or will he be the one to deliver me to the enemies who have been waiting to finish what they started?

Julienne had always prided herself on her sense of justice. As a criminal detective, she believed she would be able to do anything for the truth. That is until the lies looked right into her eyes and smiled. When she came home after a breakup text from her boyfriend of a year, Hades Bianchi, only to meet him and her sister, Lorelai, newly engaged and supposedly expecting a child, Julienne's world tilted on its axis. She is determined to stop the wedding, even if she has to dabble into murky waters, like kissing him hours before the wedding. But things get even messier when Lorelai doesn't show up to the ceremony and she is found dead in front of the cathedral, in her wedding dress. In order to cover up the scandal, the head of the Bianchi family decides to cover up the murder and have Julienne take her sister's place. Julienne agrees, mostly because she is the only one who knows how Hades looks when he isn't remorseful. But now that she is in his bed, his wedding band around her finger, desire and the truth collide, and Julienne will soon find out that the two may never be able to exist in the same space.

Just one night — born from long hesitation and an unusual decision — changes their lives forever. Are they ready to face the consequences of a passion so wild… and so bought? Amidst fateful coincidences and the twisted games of destiny, can they still recognize love when it finally appears?
