For twenty-four years, Y/N has lived a life of elegance, old money, and carefully guarded family traditions. Raised in one of the most influential families in Europe, she’s spent her life surrounded by power—but never violence. Then there’s Lorenzo De Luca. At twenty-eight, he’s already the feared head of the De Luca crime family, a name whispered throughout the underworld with equal parts respect and fear. Cold, calculated, and loyal only to those who have earned it, Lorenzo has built an empire that few dare challenge. To the world, they’re nothing more than strangers. Behind closed doors, they’re everything to each other. Only a handful of people know about their relationship. Keeping it secret isn’t about protecting Lorenzo—it’s about protecting Y/N. Because in a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal is fatal, loving the most powerful man in the mafia comes with one undeniable truth: The quickest way to destroy a king… is to go after his queen.
