The Mafia King's Trophy
Revenge runs in Matteo Dragonettiâs blood.
When he storms into Amara Cerulli's wedding, he isn't there to toast her happinessâheâs there for revenge. The ruthless heir to New Yorkâs most feared mafia family, Matteo is out to settle a blood debt that left his mother crippled and his family shattered.
His price? The Cerulli princessâstolen straight from the altar.
Amara never wanted a life tied to her fatherâs sins, but Matteo doesnât care about her innocence. To him, sheâs a trophy, a pawn in his deadly game of revenge. Little does he know Amara is no delicate prize. Beneath her blood-stained dress lies a fierce will Matteo didnât expectâand a fire he canât resist.
But in this twisted war for power, the line between captor and captive blurs, and the most dangerous game of all begins.

âYour parents are still alive, and I am hoping they try and get you back just so they can see how much Iâve ruined you.â I say, grinning as horror inches into her eyes.
âYouâre a monsterâŠâ she trails off, her blue eyes brimming with unshed tears, and I chuckle darkly.
âOh, you have no fucking idea, Princessa,â I say, then letting her go and watching as she cringes away from me.
She sobs silently, still dressed in her blood-stained dress and looking like a vengeful angel. Only I will snuff the light from her eyes; her ruination will be mine to savor.
Iâll show him what happens when he f*cks with the Dragonetti family.
