Silent Heart: Dark Mafia Romance

ARIANA

I was never meant to belong in his world.
One moment I was a daughter, a sister, a woman with choices.
The next—I was a possession.
He called it protection. I called it prison.
But somewhere between fear and fury, my heart learned his language.
Now every beat reminds me that even in a cage, love can bleed.
And I don't know which is deadlier—his touch or the way I crave it.

ALESSANDRO

She was supposed to be leverage.
A name on a list, a means to an end.
I didn't plan on her silence cutting deeper than any bullet.
I didn't plan on her eyes unmaking everything I was.
The world I rule demands blood, obedience, control—
but she made me remember what it felt like to have a heart.
And that mistake will cost us both.
