Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord
Three years ago, the third most powerful mafia family in the country was slaughtered in a single night. Every member was executed without mercy… except one.
Tiana.
The bastard daughter no one cared enough to kill.
Spared not out of kindness, but cruelty, she is dragged away as a captive and forced to endure three years of brutality at the hands of her family’s murderers, until the vibrant girl she once was disappears completely, leaving behind a mute, obedient girl.
When her captors finally grow tired of her, she is disguised as a frail boy to increase her value and is thrown into an underground auction to be sold as damaged property.
Marcus Valcari, a powerful mafia boss, had no interest in buying human property that night. He only raised his paddle because his girlfriend whimsically wanted the “pretty mute boy” as a birthday gift.
The very night Tiana stepped into the Valcari estate, she wandered into a forbidden room to find a man who had been unconscious for nearly a year. A man doctors had declared would never wake again.
Don Demetri Valcari. The most feared heir of the Valcari empire. The true devil of the underworld.
Perhaps out of foolishness or curiosity, Tiana touches him. At just her touch, the man wakes, and the first thing his dark eyes see after months of darkness is her.
What begins as curiosity quickly turns into a a dark obsession. Now marked by the ruthless man known to never accept refusal, Tiana must survive his growing obsession while guarding her biggest secret.
But the longer she stays within his clutches, the harder it becomes to maintain her disguise. If he discovers the truth, there is no telling whether he will protect her… or ruin her completely for deceiving him.
