At 20, Y/N Bellucci has spent her entire life caught between kindness and violence. Raised in one of Italy’s most powerful mafia families, she was taught how to survive a dangerous world—but never how to escape it. When her father suddenly arranges her marriage to Dimitri Volkov, the feared leader of a Russian crime empire, her future is no longer her own. Dimitri is cold, powerful, and known for showing no mercy. Y/N is gentle, anxious, and determined not to lose herself in the darkness surrounding them. Forced together by a deal neither of them chose, they find themselves at the center of a fragile alliance between two criminal dynasties. As old rivalries resurface and secrets threaten to tear both families apart, Y/N and Dimitri must navigate a world where loyalty is everything, trust is dangerous, and one wrong move could start a war. In a life ruled by power and bloodshed, they may discover that the most dangerous thing of all is letting someone get close.
