Tessa Young

I've stood before a priest and sworn my vows to the same man seven times. And for the seventh time, I've signed divorce papers in front of the family lawyer. At our first wedding, the youngest Capo of the Throne family held my hand and promised, "From this day forward, my life is yours and yours alone." But whenever his childhood sweetheart stirred up trouble and needed his protection, Carter's vow to me would conveniently become a sanctuary for her. "Tessa's in trouble again, Maeve. For your own safety, we have to get a divorce for now." The first time I was forced to divorce, I threatened him with the honor of our families' alliance, even vowing to expose his betrayal at a family gathering. His men dragged me out of the manor. The third time I signed the papers, I humbled myself, sneaking into the family's private club just to catch a glimpse of him from afar. By the sixth time, I had learned to quietly pack my few belongings in this house of lies, without putting up a fight. My breakdowns and desperate, undignified attempts to save us were only ever met with Carter's reliable promise to remarry me, just before another round of the divorce game he played for Tessa's sake. Until this time. After hearing Tessa was returning to New York from Italy, I didn't wait for Carter to speak. I placed the signed divorce papers in his study myself. Just like always, he casually set a date for our remarriage. But he didn't know that day was the day I would disappear from his world forever.

She's a nurse that is trained to save lives. He's a mafia king, feared for taking them. Tessa Hartley is a twenty four year old nurse who just moved to Italy recently after the completion of her nursing degree to advance in her career. She's undeniably beautiful with her slim but curvy physique and soft features. She was the kind of beautiful that didn't belong in a world like his. She was far too innocent for the world she was about to fall into. She never believed someone could take a life so easily until she saw it with her own eyes. Everything takes a turn when she witnesses something she should never have and is now thrown into the dangerous world of the Italian mafia king, Leonardo Vitale. Leonardo Vitale, the most ruthless and feared mafia king in the whole of Italy. He is a man who shows no mercy to those who cross him. But instead of silencing Tessa like he should, he does the unexpected. He spares her life. Not out of kindness, but because he wants her. Now forced into his world, Tessa must live under the protection of a man who rules with blood and fear. Every mafia family wants her dead, but Leonardo is ready to go to war for her. Even if it means burning down the entire underworld to keep her safe. She may have seen something that could cost her life. But he sees something in her that he never expected, a light in his darkness, and the one thing he cannot let go. He should have killed her, instead he claimed her.

Bound by duty and unspoken love, Tessa stepped in to be her husband, Logan Wilferd’s comfort, to help him to collect the broken pieces of his shattered dreams and to be the mother to his son.

When the woman he truly loved returned alive and unchanged, unable to deny his rekindled feelings, he asked for a divorce. Tessa didn’t beg or fight because she knew that she failed. On the day of third anniversary, she walked away, leaving behind a marriage where she was only a replacement. Only then he realized that she had left a void in his life which was deeper than the past. Desperate and regretful, he searched everywhere until nine months later, a withdrawal notification to a maternity clinic led him to the truth. She hadn’t just disappeared. She was carrying his child.

F*ck her. Make her my breeder. It’s none of your goddamn business what I do with my mate.” ~ What Tessa doesn’t realize is that she is nothing but a pawn in a grand scheme, and the Beta, Wraith, might just have other plans for keeping her.
