Slay for Love

Althea’s life was never hers to control. When her father failed to assassinate the leader of the most feared mafia in the city, he paid the price with the only thing he had left-her. Sold like a transaction, Althea is forced into an arranged marriage with a man she’s never met, a faceless stranger with power beyond her understanding.
Determined to escape the fate her father has sealed, she rebels, running blindly into the night-only to cross paths with a man who stirs something unexpected within her. He is charming yet dangerous, a notorious womanizer who somehow sees past her defiance. He makes her feel safe, even as his presence unsettles her.
But when the wedding veil is lifted, and the truth is revealed, Althea’s world shatters. The mysterious stranger who captivated her is none other than the man she was destined to destroy-her new husband, the very mafia leader her father tried to kill.
Now trapped in a marriage where trust is a weapon and love is a battlefield, Althea must decide: Will she fulfill her father’s mission and risk losing the one person who truly sees her, or will she surrender to a passion that could cost them both their lives?
In a game of deception, loyalty, and deadly secrets, one question remains-will she slay for love, or be slain by it?
