She was born into power. But she was never meant to wield it.
Mila Ivanov has spent her entire life playing the role of Bratva princess, untouchable, reckless, wild. It's the mask that keeps her safe. The illusion that keeps her free. Until her father decides otherwise.
Forced into an alliance marriage with Leo De Santis, a man as lethal as he is controlled.
Mila expects to be owned.
Instead, she's seen.
When a man from Mila's past resurfaces, claiming she was promised to him long before Leo, her father tightens his grip. Old alliances resurface.
Now Mila is caught between the life she was born into... and the man she never expected to choose.
Because Leo never tried to own her.
But he will destroy anyone who tries to take her.
And this time?
Mila isn't playing a role.
She's choosing who she becomes.
