They sold me before I even knew I was for sale. My father owed the Rossi family a debt he couldn’t pay, and I was the only currency worth enough to save him. By sundown the next day, I was married to Damiano Rossi in a chapel full of armed men, his hand around mine, his voice low enough for only me to hear when he told me I belonged to him now. The estate I moved into isn’t a home. It’s a cage dressed up in marble and gold. Every wife before me disappeared behind these walls and never came out again. And my husband never bothers locking a single door, because he doesn’t need to lock away something he already owns. I thought surviving him would be the hardest part. I was wrong. A rival family believes my blood still owes them a debt written in violence, not vows. A man from my mother’s past resurfaces with a fortune built for exactly this moment, and a claim on me I never knew existed. And somewhere underneath Damiano’s cruelty is a man who took a bullet for me before he ever admitted he wanted me at all. I told myself I would never fall for the man who stole my choice. I was wrong about that too. Then I found out I was carrying his child. There’s no running from a war. There’s no running from a husband who owns half the city. And there’s no running from the one thing I never expected to feel for him.
