Dante Santoro is a ruthless Mafia lord, feared and revered in equal measure. His empire stretches far and wide, and his control is absolute. But behind his cold, commanding exterior lies a man who will stop at nothing to protect what is his. Ethan John, an undercover agent and former doctor, has been assigned to infiltrate Dante's inner circle. Posing as Dante's personal physician, Ethan’s mission is simple: gather intel and bring down the Mafia kingpin before his criminal empire can expand further.

As passion ignites between them, Ethan finds himself in a perilous game of lies, deception, and betrayal. With the government breathing down his neck and Dante's trust tightening like a noose, Ethan must decide where his true loyalties lie, before it’s too late. Can love bloom in the most dangerous of places? Or will the Mafia lord’s grip be too strong to escape?

Ich wurde als Verlobte von Lorenzo, dem Erben der Mafia, auserwählt. Doch auf einer Familien-Gala wurde Lorenzo offen von Chiara, der Tochter eines Waffenhändlers, umworben. Chiara war anders als die übrigen regelkonformen Debütantinnen. Sie jagte in einem modifizierten Sportwagen durch die Straßen, schnitt ihre Zigarren mit einem militärischen Kampfmesser auf und trank den stärksten Whiskey pur. In ihr loderten Wildheit und Ungezähmtheit – ein Feuer, von dem Lorenzo den Blick nicht lösen konnte. Er beschwerte sich bei den Familienältesten: „Wie kann so eine Frau jemals unsere Madre werden und die gesamte Familie führen?“ Seine Worte trieften vor Verachtung gegenüber ihrer Rücksichtslosigkeit, doch seine Augen hingen an ihr, verfolgten jede ihrer Bewegungen, als sie ihr Glas hob. An Lorenzos Geburtstag verkündete er schließlich seine Absicht, Chiara zu seiner Geliebten zu machen. Chiara lehnte ab. „Die Frauen meiner Familie sind Ehefrauen, niemals Geliebte. Und das Herz meines Mannes gehört einzig mir.“ Lorenzo wandte sich an mich, seine Stimme zögerlich. „Alessia, es ist nur ein Titel. Ich brauche dich, um ihn Chiara zu überlassen. Bitte? Sie versteht unsere Traditionen nicht und macht ein Drama daraus, mich zu heiraten. Wir müssen sie nur vorerst beruhigen. Selbst wenn sie mich heiratet, wirst du weiterhin diejenige sein, die die Geschäfte der Familie führt.“ Als ich in meinem Brautkleid vor dem Spiegel stand, bohrte sich ein scharfer Kristall am Mieder in meinen Finger. Ein einziger Tropfen Blut blühte auf dem makellosen weißen Satin. Das Kleid war ruiniert, aber die Hochzeit würde stattfinden. Wenn ich nicht die Frau des Erben sein konnte, würde ich die Frau des Dons werden.

When she finds her alpha mate, her world lights up. Only for it to come crashing down again. A long road a head full off family secrets and mystery. Will the bond between mates be strong enough?

On the fourth day after our son died, I decided to end my military marriage. Before that, I spent three days taking care of what remained of him. On the first day, I tricked my wife into signing the cremation papers. On the second day, I went to my son's school and collected the textbooks he never had the chance to use. On the third day, I prepared a table full of his favorite dishes and begged my wife to come home so we could celebrate his birthday one last time. She agreed. Then she turned around, claimed she had a mission, and spent the entire night setting off fireworks with her childhood sweetheart. That night, I sat beside my son's memorial photo and ate alone. The next day, she came home looking guilty and handed me a brand new backpack. She said it was a gift for our son to use at school. She did not know that our child would never live to see his first day of school.

The moon goddess hosted a feast on a full moon night and an alpha was born on that night. Drunk to stupor from all the drinking at the feast, the moon goddess makes a blunder and mates the alpha with a human. It's irreversible because it has been scripted in their destiny and they'll be mated for eternity no matter how many times they are reborn. Alpha Dominic, the alpha that was mated to a human grows up thirty years later still without a mate so his father consults a priest and he's told of his unknown destiny; being mated to a human. His father is horrified but Dominic's happy to finally know he has a mate after so many years. Samantha Cosgrove, a mate to the alpha but has no idea about it, is a married woman and a baker that owns a bakery in the city. She finds out her husband's cheating on her and files a divorce immediately. With her alimony and her savings, she moves elsewhere to start afresh. Unknown to her, her bakery is just at the outskirts of alpha Dominic's pack.  Fate brings them to meet each other and alpha Dominic knows he's met his mate once he sees her. He makes advances towards her and Sparks fly; she's instantly drawn to him too. Fate seems to test their bond though on several occasions and we're left to wonder if Samantha will accept Dominic for who he is, if she will survive being the mate to a werewolf or if they'll eventually end up together happily despite all odds.

During the holiday, I took my whole family on a trip. Just as we were about to head back, more than ten police cars surrounded us at the guesthouse. The police showed a video. In it, under surveillance cameras, I drove to a forest near a popular tourist town the day before and dumped a corpse. Even more frightening, there was a strange woman sitting in the car. After throwing away the body, the two of us immediately engaged in intimate acts inside the car. Hannah Walker slapped me hard across the face. "No wonder you insisted on going to that tourist town to buy snacks for us—you were using it as an excuse to go on a date! "After doing something so inhumane, you still had the nerve to do such filthy things in the car?" However, yesterday, I had clearly gone to the town alone to buy snacks and returned. There was no such horrifying experience at all. Without another word, the police opened the trunk. When the searchlight swept across it, it was filled with bloodstains from the victim's body. In the corner, they also found the murder weapon with my fingerprints on it. I had no way to defend myself. I fell from being a rocket engineer, a hero in the country's aerospace field, to a death row prisoner. Due to the severity of the case, I was sent to the execution ground in less than a month. My parents and child, who had been on the trip with me, were blocked at the guesthouse by the victim's family and beaten to death. However, even as reality dawned on me, I still did not understand what had happened that day. When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the moment I was about to leave to buy snacks.

"Let me drill this into your head 'cause it seems you're daydreaming," his hand collared her throat tight enough to leave her struggling and kicking her feet to be set free. Tears leaked from her eyes as she fought against his grip. "You're not my Queen, you're not my mate and not my Luna. You're my fucking toy; to hold and to fuck, till you're broken beyond repair and then I decide whether or not to toss you aside," he growled coldly and I shivered from the paralyzing fear of his predatory eyes. "B-But..." She sobbed with nothin else to say. **** He was right. She was nothing more than a toy She was always hated by her father and her stepmom, all cause of the old believe she killed her mom. Her father couldn't pay the debt he owed the most hated pack so his daughter was used to pay the debt. Her life was scattered into pieces which made her almost lost hope on life .

What would she do now she can't run away from the man who bought her and became her mate?
