I survived the fire that claimed my bloodline. Now, I’m burning their empire to the ground.
For ten years, I lived as a ghost, hiding in the shadows from the uncle who slaughtered my parents to steal the Conti cartel. But the illusion of safety shatters the night the Romano Syndicate tracks me down in the freezing rain.
Valerio Romano is the cold, calculated architect of the city's underworld. He doesn't just want my life; he wants the legitimacy of my name. To secure his hostile takeover of my uncle's territories, Valerio forces me into a brutal arrangement: I will be bound in marriage not just to him, but to the entire ruling Triumvirate.
Marcello Rossi is the aristocratic financial genius who looks at me like a priceless asset he obsessively needs to protect. Zeno Bianchi is the unhinged enforcer with a demon hound at his heel, a man who sees the feral violence inside me and wants to set it free.
They locked me in a fortified cage and expected me to play the submissive pawn to keep their supply lines stable. But they severely underestimated the Conti heiress. I am not a helpless captive. I won't just survive these three monsters—I will command them, and I will use their lethal devotion to carve a path straight to my uncle's throat.
Teodoro Marino thinks he won the war. He’s about to learn that the queen he tried to bury is coming for his crown, and she has the three most dangerous men in the city standing at her side.
