Enslaved by a Mafia Boss

He never expected to want her this badly.

Alessandro Varesi built his kingdom on silence and blood, but the woman chained to his bed has him breaking every rule he ever made. She was supposed to be leverage. A bargaining chip against a rival family. Instead she's become an obsession, her hatred for him only making the chase sweeter.

Maya Cortez trained for everything except this. The way he watches her. The way his rough hands know exactly where she's weakest. She tells herself she hates him even as her body arches into his punishing grip, even as she learns the shameful rhythm of begging. His penthouse becomes their battleground, each night a war she's losing faster than the last.

He doesn't just want her compliance. He wants her ruined for anyone else. Her surrender, complete and devastating. And Maya discovers something worse than captivity - the terrible ache when he's gone, the hollow need that only his cruelty fills.

But the harbor fog can't hide their transaction forever. When her usefulness expires, Varesi must choose between the empire that made him and the woman who unmakes him with every shattered breath. And Maya must decide if the freedom she fought for means anything without his chains.
