The Devil And The Huntsman

On my wedding day, I learned love was just another business transaction. For five years, I was the invisible backbone of my family’s empire: cleaning their scandals, growing their wealth, and earning a wedding meant to secure our legacy. Instead, my sister collapsed at the altar and revealed she was pregnant with my fiancé’s child. Before the cameras, he chose her; my parents chose the stock market, and my father disowned me on the spot. Twenty-four hours and one drunken mistake later, I woke up in the penthouse of Dominic Adams, the billionaire known as the Butcher of Wall Street. He offered me everything they took from me: power, protection, and revenge. All I had to do was say “I do.” Revenge was supposed to be simple. Until I started falling for the devil who bought it for me. But Dominic didn’t choose me by accident. The deeper I dig into his obsession with my family, the more I realize this marriage isn’t just about vengeance. It’s about war. Now I must decide: Save myself… Break the devil who owns my heart… Or stand beside the only man who has ever seen my worth and burn my world to ashes?

To save his mother’s life as she lay critically ill in the operating room, Dante had no choice. The hospital bills kept piling up. Every door he knocked on for help closed, one by one. Until an offer came—dirty, dangerous, and binding. To become a mafia boss’s kept man. Leonard Virelli was not just a wealthy man. He was the shadow ruler of the city—ambitious, manipulative, and accustomed to getting whatever he wanted. Including Dante. Dante knew this was not simply a “relationship.” It was an unspoken contract of ownership. Of a body paid for. Of a life slowly brought under control. He had never imagined himself stepping into a world like that. But for the cost of the surgery, for the only family he had left, Dante was willing to swallow his pride. What he did not expect was how dangerous Leonard truly was. The man did not only want Dante’s presence at his side—he wanted obedience. Loyalty. Perhaps even… his heart. Behind the expensive suits and cold smiles, Leonard harbored an unhealthy obsession. He was not used to being rejected. Not used to losing. And the more Dante tried to keep his emotional distance, the tighter Leonard’s grip became. Trapped between guilt, desperation, and feelings that began to grow without permission, Dante found himself asking a question he was afraid to answer: Did he sell himself to save his mother? Or had he unknowingly surrendered himself to a man who would never let him go? In the mafia world filled with blood and betrayal, love is not tenderness. Love is possession. And Dante has just signed a contract with the most dangerous man in the city.

"Why do you love me?" Mark asked from her. "I think love doesn't need reasons," Lily replied. "I don't love you," Mark asserted. "Will you still love me if I go away from your life or will you move on?" Mark asked. "What do you mean?" Lily queried Mark worriedly. "Just answer," Mark told Lily. "I don't think I will ever forget you especially your eyes," Lily answered. "I am not going anywhere," Mark stated and averted his gaze from Lily. "Are you saying the truth?" Lily questioned him. "Why do you think I am lying?" Mark asked. "Because I don't want you to go away. I found you after 6 years and if you will again go away then, I might feel sad," Lily truthfully replied. Mark's eyes grew big as this thing he never heard once from anyone. Everyone told him to fulfill his duties but no one said to him that they would feel bad if he would go away. Mark lifted his hand and cupped Lily's face and the next second she was shocked by Mark's move.

Sarian De Luca was never meant to exist in the world of power and privilege. She was a maid’s daughter—Obedient, invisible. Until the night Killian Capella stepped into her life, he didn’t just save her. He changed the rules she had spent years surviving by. He protected her like a secret and loved her like a sin. Then he vanished. Years later, Sarian returns—not as the broken girl he left behind, but as a woman forged by betrayal, motherhood, and relentless survival. The man who once called himself Killian now rules Europe’s business empire as Salvatore Capella— he is cold, engaged, and untouchable. He doesn’t recognize her in public. But in private, he watches her like she never left. What Salvatore doesn’t know is that Sarian carries more than scars from the past. She carries a truth that could destroy his empire—and a love he was never meant to reclaim. Bound by secrets, threatened by enemies, and trapped between desire and revenge, Sarian has to decide: remain obedient and survive… or defy the devil who still owns her heart. Because Killian Capella isn’t an angel. He’s something far more dangerous.
