He owns the school. He owns the darkness. And now, he thinks he owns me.
I didn't come to Blackwood University to study. I came to burn it to the ground. My sister died inside these stone walls, and everyone says it was an accident. But I know the truth: The elite secret society known as The Order broke her.
I have a plan. Infiltrate the school, find the evidence, and destroy them all. Then I met Aiken Lane.
He is the King of the Spire. The heir to a criminal empire. A monster in a bespoke suit with bruised knuckles and eyes like a frozen lake. He watches everything. He controls everyone. And he caught me.
Instead of exposing me, he made me a deal. A debt I can only pay with my body and my silence. He thinks I’m a toy to be played with. A pawn in his twisted games of power and pain. He claims he’s protecting me from the wolves, but he is the most dangerous predator of them all.
Now, the Winter Rites are approaching—a night of hunting where the weak are culled. To survive, I have to let him claim me. I have to wear his ring, bear his mark, and become the dark queen to his savage king.
I came for revenge. But I might lose my heart to the very villain I swore to kill.
"Run," he whispers against my throat. "Because if I catch you, I’m never letting you go."
MAFIA'S TWISTED RITES is a full-length Dark Academia Mafia Romance. It features a possessive anti-hero, a defiant heroine, and steam that will melt your kindle. This is a dark romance with triggering themes, violence, and intense power dynamics. Proceed with caution.
