Strong Suits

Isadora Montreval Héritière unique du plus redouté empire clandestin de France, Isadora Montreval a grandi dans un monde où le silence est loi et l’amour, une arme. Derrière les façades de marbre et les salons dorés, elle a appris à cacher ses émotions, obéir sans faillir et survivre sans jamais fléchir. Éduquée pour gouverner, surveillée pour ne jamais s’échapper, Isadora sait depuis l’enfance que sa vie n’est pas un choix, mais un héritage. Pourtant, sous sa maîtrise apparente brûle un désir secret : disparaître. Partir loin des ombres familiales, voyager sans escorte, créer quelque chose de simple et de vrai — une pâtisserie à son nom, et non celui d’un empire criminel. Un rêve discret, presque interdit. Mais dans le monde de la mafia, les rêves sont des failles. Un mariage arrangé vient refermer la cage autour d’elle, la condamnant à renoncer à toute liberté pour devenir l’épouse parfaite d’un homme qu’elle n’a jamais choisi. ⸻ Luca Moretti Héritier de la mafia italienne, Luca Moretti n’a jamais appris à négocier ses désirs : il prend, impose, écrase. Le pouvoir est sa langue maternelle, la violence son héritage. Là où il passe, le monde s’incline — ou se brise. Quand il rencontre Isadora, bien avant que les alliances soient scellées, il comprend immédiatement : elle n’est pas fragile. Elle est verrouillée. Derrière son calme glacial, il devine la résistance, la volonté contenue, la femme capable de le défier sans un mot. Il la veut. Il peut lui offrir le luxe, la protection, un royaume entier… mais jamais ce qu’elle désire vraiment. Car une seule chose est immuable : Isadora Montreval lui appartient désormais.

"Menurutmu, apa hukuman yang pantas untuk seseorang yang berani menyentuhku tanpa izin, Riel?" Suara dingin itu menusuk, membuat tubuhku gemetar tanpa sadar. Rigen Ataraka—suami koma yang baru kunikahi pagi ini—berdiri menjulang, matanya penuh ancaman. Aku bodoh. Aku terlalu terpesona oleh ketampanannya hingga tanpa sadar mencium dan memeluknya, berpikir dia akan koma selamanya. Tapi pria ini tidak koma. Dia sadar. Segar bugar. Dan sekarang, dia ingin menghukumku. "Maaf, Rigen. Tapi… kita suami istri, kan?" Dia tak menjawab, hanya melemparkan dokumen ke arahku. "Tandatangani." Aku menatap kertas itu—pernikahan kontrak. "Jangan pernah bermimpi mendapatkan apa pun dariku," suaranya tegas. Begitulah aku menjadi istri kontrak Rigen Ataraka, menanti hari perceraian yang semakin dekat. Aku bahkan sudah bersiap dengan tunjangan dan rencana pergi jauh. Namun, saat aku menyerahkan surat cerai.… "Mau ke mana, Riel?" Rigen merobek surat itu tanpa ragu, matanya tajam. "Kamu tidak akan bisa meninggalkanku. Aku terlalu kuat untuk kamu tinggalkan, Ariella."
