“Don’t insult my intelligence, Elena. You think I don’t recognize myself when I see it?”
That’s the moment everything shatters.
I ran from the mafia.
From him.
From the truth I buried.
But Dante Cosenza found me anyway.
Ruthless don.
My dead fiancé’s brother.
The man I was never supposed to touch.
Now I’m back in Sicily—
trapped in his world… and his name.
“Congratulations. You’ve become a Cosenza after all.”
A forced marriage.
A gilded cage.
A punishment for sins he hasn’t finished uncovering.
Because the lie I told?
It’s standing right in front of him.
“That boy isn’t his.”
And Dante knows it.
Now enemies are closing in.
There’s a price on my child.
And a traitor inside his empire wants us both dead.
He says he’ll protect us.
But men like Dante don’t protect.
They possess.
“Every breath this child takes is proof of what you did…”
And when the truth finally comes out—
when the lie I built my life on burns to the ground—
This won’t just destroy him.
It will start a war.
