Pernikahanku dengan Dante Taulany mengejutkan semua orang. Aku berwatak keras dan tidak pernah mundur. Tiga tahun setelah menikah, seluruh orang dunia bawah tanah Chilaga tahu kami saling bermusuhan. Kecuali di ranjang. Di sana, tubuh kami seolah-olah saling melengkapi. Satu-satunya momen di mana kami tidak bertengkar adalah saat kami terjerat di seprai, tenggelam dalam badai ciuman putus asa dan kenikmatan yang alami. Entah sudah berapa kali Dante memberitahuku bahwa dia terobsesi dengan tubuhku, biasanya tepat saat dia tenggelam dalam pelukanku. Aku mengira itu caranya mengatakan bahwa dia jatuh cinta padaku. Namun, semua itu runtuh di sebuah acara lelang. Saat dia merampas pusaka ibuku dariku, hanya untuk memberikannya pada seorang gadis yang terlihat rapuh bernama Ava. Pada saat itu, dia memperlihatkan kekejaman yang belum pernah aku lihat sebelumnya. Dante berkata dengan nada yang sangat dingin, "Sudah waktunya kamu menghadapi kenyataan, Elara. Aku menikahimu, menidurimu ... itu semua hanya untuk menjaga perdamaian antara keluarga kita. Ava adalah orang yang ingin aku lindungi." Namun, di hari saat aku akhirnya meninggalkan Chilaga dan mengumumkan perceraian kami pada dunia .... Pemimpin mafia yang dingin dan penuh perhitungan itu memburuku seperti orang yang kerasukan.

This is the ninth year Dante and I have honored the Month of No Masters. The Corinni family's heir apparent believes this will make our relationship last longer. For one month after our dating anniversary each year, he is free, and we stay out of each other's lives. If either of us finds someone more suitable, we are to wish them well. If not, we go back to the way things were after a month. Around me, the men of the family are spraying champagne with abandon. "To another year of freedom! Congratulations to our Underboss on reclaiming his bachelor status!" "The family betting pool is open! Place your bets on the left if you think they'll still get married, and on the right if you think it's over for good!" Through the hazy cigar smoke, I sat on the corner of a leather sofa, a cold observer, as if this whole farce had nothing to do with me. Dante's hand was curled around Scarlett's waist as he brushed past me, whispering, "Don't get any ideas. You'll always be my only Donna." "I'm a kite. No matter how far I fly, the string is always in your hand." I pressed my cold fingers against the gentle swell of my belly, my expression a blank mask. Dante, this time at the family's betting table, I'm putting my money on "the end." I'm going to vanish from your world completely. That kite string you're so proud of? Tonight, I'm cutting it myself.

" Aku tidak lagi menutup mataku di hadapan kegelapan yang mengurungku" ucap pria itu meyakinkan dirinya sendiri. Sosok pria tampan dengan guratan tegas dalam wajahnya itu,bernama Dante. Pria yang dingin akan kehidupan itu sedang berusaha mencari makna akan kehidupan yang ia jalani. Untuk apa dia hidup,untuk apa dia berjuang,dan segala pertanyaan yang bergejolak dalam hatinya mempertanyakan jati diri ia yang sesungguhnya. Kehidupan yang keras telah membawa dia pada berbagai peristiwa yang membuat dia jatuh, terpuruk, bangkit, dan berjuang lagi dan lagi. Pertemuan Dante dengan sebuah agen rahasia telah banyak mengubah hidupnya. Lantas apa yang akan terjadi dalam hidupnya? Cinta, cita-cita, harapan, persahabatan, pertikaian semua hal tersebut sudah menunggu Dante di depan sana.

“Marry him, or your brother dies.” To protect the only family she has left, Elena Russo agrees to marry Dante Moretti—New York’s most feared mafia heir. Cold. Controlled. Lethal. He offers her no love, no choice, and no freedom. Only a diamond ring and a cage with silk sheets. But from the moment she steps into his estate, she learns the rules don’t matter—because Dante doesn’t follow them. He doesn’t touch her. Doesn’t even look at her. Until he does. And when he does… it’s to remind her who owns her. She was supposed to hate him. She wasn’t supposed to want the man who watches her from behind glass. Who whispers commands through locked doors. Who punishes with silence—and rewards with ruin. In this house, obedience is survival. But what happens when the bride stops playing by the rules?

ISABELLA HART doesn’t believe in love. She watched it destroy her father and take her mother, and she learned early that the safest heart is the one you guard. DANTE MORETTI trusts control above all else. A billionaire who built his empire on discipline and silence, he knows betrayal can’t be ignored....and love is the riskiest gamble of all. Their arranged marriage was meant to be safe, and utterly controlled. But living under the same roof blurs the line between duty and desire. Arguments flare, touches linger, and the walls they built around themselves start to crumble. Then the past returns, bringing secrets, lies, and a betrayal that threatens everything they’ve ever trusted. Now Isabella must decide if guarding her heart is worth losing him...and Dante must learn that control cannot fix what fear has broken. In a world ruled by power and deception, desire may be the only truth strong enough to survive.

“You’re not here to serve drinks tonight,” the man said calmly. “You’re here because I bought you.” Aruna never chose the night world. She was forced into it by debt, desperation, and a failed surgery that took her mother’s life instead of saving it. Alone and drowning in unpaid bills, she became trapped in an elite nightclub owned by a ruthless boss who now holds her life on a leash. In a place where bodies are traded and innocence is a myth, Aruna hides a dangerous secret. She is still a virgin. When Dante Ravelino, the most feared Mafia King in the city’s underworld, steps into the bar searching for a pure woman to satisfy a private demand, fate makes its cruel move. The boss sells Aruna without her consent, sealing her destiny in one illegal deal. But Dante is not the monster she expected. Cold. Controlled. Deadly. And disturbingly drawn to her quiet defiance. What begins as a transaction turns into an obsession neither of them can escape. Aruna soon learns that her mother’s death was no accident, her debt was never random, and her body was never the real target. She is part of a much darker game. Surrounded by bloodshed, betrayals, and mafia wars, Aruna must survive a world ruled by power and violence while fighting feelings that could destroy them both. Loving a Mafia King means surrendering to danger… or becoming danger itself. Because in Dante Ravelino’s world, once you are bought— you are never truly free.

I was discarded the moment my husband gained power. Divorced. Humiliated. Left with nothing…while my mother lay dying. Serena Black believed loyalty and sacrifice would be enough to secure her place beside Antonio Romano. Instead, she discovers she was only ever a stepping stone. He replaces her with a pregnant woman claiming to be the legendary Black family heiress and erases Serena from his life without mercy. Divorced, humiliated, and stripped of everything, Serena’s world collapses… until fate throws her beneath the wheels of the most dangerous man alive. Dante Romano is the ruthless Don of the Romano Mafia empire. Cold, commanding, untouchable. He should have walked away from the broken woman bleeding in the street. Instead, he sees a scar that awakens a memory he buried ten years ago… and a desire he was never supposed to feel. To protect her and to uncover the truth, Dante offers Serena a contract marriage. Revenge in exchange for a ring. Power in exchange for her name. But nothing is simple when the man you marry is your ex-husband’s father. As lies unravel and bloodlines are questioned, Serena is forced to choose: remain a pawn in a brutal mafia game… or rise as a queen feared by all. And Dante must decide how far he’s willing to go for the woman who was never meant to be his. Because in this world, love is forbidden. And truth is deadly. When secrets collide and desire defies loyalty, will Serena claim her destiny or will loving the Don cost her everything?
