Stay Bound: A Steamy Dark Forbidden Love Mafia Romance

A Steamy Dark Mafia Forbidden Love Romance

I walked into the enemy's club and met the man who would set my world on fire.
Is it still hell if I love the burn?

Selene Armand
My life was a golden cage, an arranged engagement, a father who traded vows like chips. Then Lucian Vercelis, the city's most feared crime heir, stole me from the ballroom and turned war into our shadow. He is smoke, scars, and obsession, the rival I should hate. I fight him, I crave him, and when my father's lies explode, I learn the worst truth of all. I was never a daughter. I was leverage. Now the only safe place is the chest of the man who kidnapped me.

Lucian Vercelis

I rule by cold math, never mercy. One kiss with the Armand princess rewrote my rules. I took Selene to end a dynasty, then bled for her when the streets answered with fire. Betrayals cut from my own bloodline. A penthouse turned to glass rain. A rescue under gunfire. I promised the city I would burn for what is mine. In the end she chose me, and I swore a blood oath at her side.

Enemies to lovers turns into a bond forged in smoke and ruin. He is the possessive antihero who razes empires. She is the mafia princess who becomes his queen. Together they build from ash, and every kiss feels like another match struck.
