Scarlet Vows: An Arranged Marriage Dark Mafia Romance (Empire of Sin & Blood)

I hate Nico Moretti. The Reaper. The man who turns blood into power, whose name is spoken in fear and reverence. He’s cold, ruthless, and untouchable—the kind of monster who doesn’t just survive in the dark, he owns it.
And in forty-eight hours, I’ll be wearing his ring.
Our marriage is meant to prevent a war, but it’s the very thing that might ignite one. A mole is revealing sensitive information, causing chaos amongst mafia heads, threatening to destroy both our families.
My father calls it business—like trading me to the devil is nothing more than balancing the books.
I tell myself I can do this—I’m a Bellanti. I’ve survived worse than becoming a mobster’s bride.
But the real betrayal? My body doesn’t fear him. It craves him. His voice, deep and commanding, vibrates through me until my body hums with unwanted desire.
One look, and I shatter. One touch, and I tremble.
And when our enemies strike, I realize the most terrifying truth of all: The man I should hate may be the only thing standing between me and death.
I vowed to survive him. But some monsters don’t just own your soul. They make you beg for the burn.
