BETROTHED TO THE ALPHA MAFIA KING
Elara’s life is shattered when she is forced into an arranged marriage with Damian Volkov—the ruthless Alpha of a powerful werewolf pack and the feared king of the mafia underworld. As the daughter of a desperate businessman who struck a dangerous deal, Elara becomes nothing more than a pawn in a world of violence, secrets, and supernatural power.
Damian is cold, calculating, and possessive, ruling with an iron fist both in the criminal world and among his kind. At first, their marriage is nothing more than a contract—an agreement to secure power and settle debts. But as Elara defies him at every turn, she awakens something primal in the Alpha King, something far more dangerous than any enemy.
Torn between duty and the growing intensity of their bond, Elara must navigate a world of deadly rivalries, betrayals, and forbidden passion. As secrets unravel and enemies close in, she realizes that escaping Damian’s grasp may be impossible—not because of the deal that binds them, but because her heart may no longer want to run.
In a world where love and power collide, will Elara survive her fate, or will she become the queen of darkness beside the Alpha Mafia King?

Chapter: SHADOWS DON'T STAY DEAD CHAPTER 55:Elara’s PerspectiveThe wind howled through the skeletal remains of the Vasiliev estate, rattling loose beams and cracked tiles like bones clinking in an unmarked grave. The scout’s words still echoed in my mind, louder than the gunfire dying off in the distance."She said: Tell Elara I raised her once in silence... now I’ve returned for what was promised."My mother.Dead for over a decade.Buried in a sealed tomb I had wept beside, clutched Katya’s trembling hand at, cursed the gods over.And now she was standing at the edge of the woods?Luka and Damian flanked me, but I walked ahead, past the scorched gardens and ash-filled courtyards, toward the tree line.The air shifted.And then I saw her.Clad in midnight black, a long cloak dragging through the dirt, hair pinned high in a crown of braids. Her face was older—sharper—but I’d know that gaze anywhere.Those eyes had once read me stories.Had watched over me from across crowded rooms, whispered instructions in languag

Chapter: THE KEY BENEATH THE ASHYCHAPTER 54:Elara’s PerspectiveThe garden fell into silence, but my mind roared louder than the fires that had reduced our home to smoldering rubble.The key.That’s what Damian had called me.Not just a Vasiliev... but the key.My gaze flicked between the two men standing before me—Luka, bloodstained and shaking, and Damian, calm as ever, but his eyes were storm-dark. For a split second, neither of them seemed real. Everything I thought I knew had just been shattered in the space of one sentence.“What the hell does that mean?” I whispered.Damian stepped forward, holding the phone tighter, like it was the last thread holding everything together. “The recording… it’s from fifteen years ago. Buried in a vault Viktor had under lock and kill order.”“Kill order?”He nodded. “Anyone who accessed it... died. But I didn’t go in blind.”“And you waited until now to tell me?” I hissed, rage beginning to claw its way up my throat.“I needed proof,” he said. “And time. Neither came easily.”L

Chapter: THE FIRE WITHIN THE BLOOD CHAPTER 53:Elara’s PerspectiveThe air was thick with gunpowder and smoke, screams ricocheting off the marble walls like echoes from a nightmare. Damian pulled me down just as bullets shattered a chandelier above us. Shards of crystal rained down, catching the flicker of fire in the distance as the east wing of the estate began to burn.I couldn’t breathe.Not from the smoke—but from the weight of what I’d just learned.Luka. Alive. Fighting. Betrayed. And now... he had returned with vengeance in his eyes and war in his blood.Damian’s arm wrapped protectively around me, dragging me into the hallway. The alarms kept screaming, but louder than that was the chaos unraveling around us. I could hear Viktor barking orders in Russian, trying to rally what was left of his men.“He planned this for months,” Damian growled, kicking open a hidden panel in the wall that revealed a steel door. “That wasn’t just revenge. That was strategy.”“And you knew,” I said, breathless. “You knew he was ali

Chapter: SHADOWS OF THE FORGOTTEN CHAPTER 52:Elara’s PerspectiveThe man in the mask stepped into the room, and instantly, the air shifted. Thick. Heavy. Charged.Even Damian tensed—a rare crack in his perfect composure. Viktor straightened slowly, like a man who’d seen a ghost. Whatever—or whoever—this was, they hadn’t expected him. And that unsettled me more than anything.“You’re too late,” the masked man repeated, voice low, smooth, but laced with something deadly.“Who the hell are you?” I demanded, swallowing the chaos swirling in my chest.He turned to me.And then I saw them—his eyes.Familiar.No, impossibly familiar.Silver-gray, like storms caught between twilight and fury.I staggered back, my pulse racing.No.It couldn’t be.Damian spoke first, but his voice was quieter than usual, as if even he was calculating how far this stranger could push him. “You shouldn’t be here.”The man’s gaze shifted to him, and there was nothing friendly in it. “You should’ve burned the evidence, Volkov. But you never were

Chapter: THE FINAL BETRAYAL CHAPTER 51:Elara’s PerspectiveMy heart pounded in my chest, my body frozen in place as I tried to process the sight before me.Viktor—alive—stood beside Damian, his face as cold and impassive as ever. But there was something different about him. Something off. He had always been a man of power, a master of the shadows, but now, his presence seemed... hollow.I couldn’t speak. My mouth was dry, my mind reeling with a thousand conflicting thoughts. This couldn’t be real. There was no way my father, the man who had been buried in the ashes of his empire, could still be alive. No way he could have survived everything we had gone through.But there he was, standing before me like a ghost, his dark eyes locking with mine, filled with an unreadable emotion.“I see you’ve figured it out, Elara,” Viktor said, his voice low and steady, like nothing had ever changed.I shook my head, the weight of the revelation pressing down on me like a suffocating force. “How? How are you alive? I—I saw you

Chapter: THE DEPTHS OF DECEPTION CHAPTER 50:Elara’s PerspectiveThe darkness felt heavier now, as though the walls themselves were closing in on me. My breath came in shallow, erratic bursts, and my hands trembled as I pressed them against the cold stone of the wall, trying to steady myself. My mind raced with a thousand questions, each one more confusing than the last.What had the figure meant? No true allies?And what was all of this about Viktor being a pawn? Was there someone pulling strings behind the scenes, orchestrating everything? My father had always been the most powerful man in the room, the one who made the decisions, who controlled everything. How could he have been a pawn in some larger game?I swallowed hard, my throat dry as the weight of the realization pressed down on me.I was utterly alone.The sudden thought struck me like a bolt of lightning, sending a tremor through my body. This entire time, I’d thought Damian was my ally, that our shared struggles and our growing bond were enough to secure
