Owned By Mafia : A Dark Billionaire Bratva Romance with a Possessive Alpha Anti-Hero (Taken, Marked & Mine Book 1)

A ruthless Bratva king. A broke waitress sold as payment. One deal that turns captivity into obsession.

When twenty-two-year-old Lena Hart finishes a double shift at a greasy diner, she expects sore feet and late rent notices—not black SUVs, armed Russians, and a father on his knees.
Her dad’s gambling debt is due, and the Russian mafia has come to collect.

Instead of a bullet, Mikhail Volkov—cold, calculating Bratva pakhan and rumored mafia king—takes Lena as payment. Publicly, she’ll be his fiancée. Privately, she’ll live in his mansion as his captive, bound by his rules and his protection.

No leaving the estate.
No calling home.
No forgetting that her father’s life depends on her obedience to a man who doesn’t know the meaning of mercy.

Lena swears she’ll never fall for the possessive alpha anti-hero who owns her. But the more Mikhail trains her to stand at his side like a queen, the more she sees the man behind the monster—nightmares, scars, and a lethal softness reserved only for her. In a world of Bratva violence, dangerous alliances, and bloody revenge, his touch becomes the only place she feels truly safe… and the most terrifying addiction she’s ever had.

When a rival Russian mafia boss uses Lena as bait to drag Mikhail into war, she must decide if she’s still a debtor’s daughter surviving one bad decision at a time—or the queen who will burn the world with her king.

Because in his world, love isn’t sweet. It’s a weapon. And being owned by the mafia might be the only way she lives long enough to choose her own cage.

Perfect for readers who love dark mafia romance, obsessive possessive heroes, and high-heat Bratva love stories with a hard-won HEA.
