They dragged me from the stage and into a mansion built like a tomb. They say I’m legacy—blood inked in a pact older than love, older than mercy. And the man who holds me here? Severo Dantès. The Cartographer. He maps empires. He doesn’t flinch. He watches me like a threat he intends to consume. He says I’m safer locked inside his walls. But safety has never looked so much like sacrifice. Then Nico returns—my brother’s best friend. My almost. He offers escape. But I don’t want out. Not anymore. Because this isn’t a love story. It’s a blood ritual. La Legatura. ...

They say I chose him. Before the blood, before the lies. Before memory turned to ash. But when I wake with no past, no name I trust, and a stranger claiming to be my husband— I don’t feel love. I feel the walls closing in. Severin Accardi is a king in glass and iron. Cold. Controlled. Untouchable. He says he’ll protect me. He doesn’t say from what. They call it a marriage. I call it a cage. But the more I remember, the less I know who I really was— The heiress, the weapon, the traitor. The woman who loved a monster… or became one. There’s a secret buried in our vows. A ...

They say sin finds you when your soul is pure. I was raised to pray, to obey, to stay untouched. Twenty years in Catholic skirts and whispered Hail Marys— Never kissed. Never defiled. Never meant to cross paths with a devil in a tailored suit. But the night Vieri Tavano walked into my café, drenched in blood and silence, my world shattered. He took me. Not for love. Not for lust. As collateral. He swore he wouldn’t touch me… Not unless I begged him to. And God help me, I’m starting to. He’s cold, cruel, carved from shadows—and yet, I see something in his eyes. Pain. Guilt. A ...

I was my father’s prized possession, sheltered and obedient. But when he promised me to Viktor Sokolov—a man fifteen years my senior and as feared as he was respected—my life became a dark gamble. Viktor was ruthless, a cold enforcer with a history drenched in blood and betrayal. His eyes burned with unspoken torment, and his touch was both a promise of pain and pleasure. I was thrust into a marriage that bound me not just to a man but to a world where trust was scarce, and survival meant playing by brutal rules. He said I was his, that there was no escape. I fought him at every turn,...

🔥 OWNED BY THE CARTEL 🔥 I knew the knock at the door was a warning. I didn’t expect it to be a sentence. They came in the dead of night. Not for money. Not for retribution. For me. Valentín Montoya—the name that rules Buenos Aires like a whispered prayer and a curse. A man who doesn’t negotiate. Doesn’t forgive. And now, he owns me. My husband’s debt should have died with him, but Montoya doesn’t believe in loose ends. So I was dragged into his world, my daughter cradled in my arms, with no chance of escape. I was meant to be a prisoner. A lesson. A possession. But he ...

🔥 CROWNED BY THE CARTEL 🔥 I was never meant to wear the crown. I was meant to plan the weddings, host the parties, and smile for the cameras. Not fight. Not kill. Not rule. But when my father was murdered, I learned the truth—fairy tales don’t exist in the cartel. And the only way to survive is to become something worse than the monsters hunting me. Diego Montiel—the brother I once loved—put a price on my head. Gabriel Sarmiento—the man I once feared—became my only chance at survival. He stole me away under the cover of night. Not for ransom. Not for mercy. For war. They ...

I was never meant to stay hidden for long. They called it escape, but it was just another cage—one I built around myself, thinking I could outrun the past. I thought a new name and a new town would make me disappear. Then he found me. Cassian Wolfe is everything I’ve been running from—cold, dangerous, and untouchable. The kind of man who takes without asking, who controls with a look, who owns with a whisper. He says I belong to him now. That my freedom comes with a price. But he doesn’t break me. He doesn’t even try. He wears me down, slowly, like the storm outside his manor, ...

🔥 AUCTIONED TO THE CARTEL 🔥 I was born a daughter of the cartel. Branded. Promised. A pawn in my father’s ruthless empire. I spent my life waiting for an escape. But when the walls finally closed in, freedom didn’t come. Santino Corso did. The Butcher of Buenos Aires. The man who stole me in the dead of night. Not to save me. Not to set me free. To own me. He tells me I belong to him. That I was never meant for another. That he’ll break me before he ever lets me go. But I’m done being a pawn in this world of kings. I’ll fight him. Tempt him. Manipulate him. And when the time...

They bound me to him with blood. Before I even knew what love was. I was ten when the ritual sealed us. A sacred vow. A whispered command. Protect her as shadow, as blade, as brother. But they didn’t ask me if I could survive her loss. Now she’s gone—my vow buried with her. And in her place stands the girl who shares her blood. The one I was never meant to want. The one they hunted through fire and silence and blood-soaked marble floors. Elaria Fontanesi walks into my world broken. A daughter of betrayal. A girl forged in grief. She doesn’t know who I am. Or what I did to protect ...

They say fire cleanses. They never watched it steal the only person who ever mattered. Two years ago, I buried my sister in ash and screams—her life stolen by the same criminal empire I swore to dismantle. Now I’m back on Oʻahu, undercover, armed with ink, steel, and a name that’s not mine. Every tattoo I give brings me closer to the man who lit the match. Makoa Keahi. Ex-priest. Syndicate king. A legend carved in blood and ink with storm-gray eyes and a scar that cuts deeper than it looks. He’s everything I should hate. But the closer I get, the more I see the cracks in his empire...

Yo era la posesión más preciada de mi padre, protegida y obediente. Pero cuando me prometió a Viktor Sokolov—un hombre quince años mayor que yo, tan temido como respetado—mi vida se convirtió en una apuesta oscura. Viktor era despiadado, un ejecutor frío con una historia empapada de sangre y traición. Sus ojos ardían con un tormento no dicho, y su toque era tanto una promesa de dolor como de placer. Me vi lanzada a un matrimonio que me ató no solo a un hombre, sino a un mundo donde la confianza era escasa y la supervivencia exigía seguir reglas brutales. Dijo que yo era suya, ...
