Matteo Lascari was a ruthless Mafia boss, feared by all. Elodie Quayle, on the other hand, was merely the adopted daughter of the Quayle family—powerless and dispensable. To settle a debt, she was forced to take her sister Yelena’s place and marry Matteo, becoming the envied Mrs. Lascari in the eyes of outsiders. But beneath the glamorous title lay a living nightmare only she could understand. Matteo imprisoned her, tormented her, and used her as a mere pawn in his deadly game against his enemies. Yet, without realizing it, the cold-hearted Mafia boss found himself falling for her. But when the truth finally came to light, would their marriage—built on lies and deception—crumble, or would love defy fate?
