Bound by Empire: A Dark Mafia Empire Romance (Rule, Freedom)

By Lila Hart

He rules with blood. She craves freedom. Together, they could burn the world-or build an empire.

Adrian Conti has fought his way to the throne of the underworld. Ruthless, brilliant, and feared by all, his crown is written in blood. But power comes with a price-his empire cannot stand unless he takes a bride.

Sofia Martelli never wanted to be a pawn. Fierce, untamed, and desperate for freedom, she vows never to bend to a man's will. Yet when her family trades her hand for protection, she finds herself chained to Adrian-the one man who can both destroy her and set her free.

From whispered betrayals to brutal wars, Adrian and Sofia's forced union sparks a storm of desire, vengeance, and power. Enemies close in, lies threaten to shatter everything, and the line between hate and love blurs until it burns.

In a world where loyalty is currency and passion is deadly, will they conquer together-or fall apart in flames?

Bound by Empire is a dark mafia empire romance filled with enemies-to-lovers heat, ruthless kings, fiery heroines, betrayal, redemption, and the intoxicating pull of forbidden love. Perfect for fans of Sophie Lark, J.L. Beck & C. Hallman, and Rina Kent.
