The Mafia Kings Bride
READING AGE 16+
Lydia Merchant was never meant to be a part of Arthur Durrin Romero’s life. She was simply a daughter, a girl with dreams of her own, a life she had where she was happy. But one signature from her own father, the man who was to protect her. It sealed in blood and betrayal and turned Lydia into a payment for a debt she didn’t owe. This is where her life was over. Now, Lydia was standing in her black wedding dress, marrying the cruelest man in the room. Arthur Romero is the heir to a violent empire. He is ruthless, filled with wealth, and feared by the underworld. He doesn’t believe in the vows of love, kindness even. He doesn’t need affection, or get close to it. What he wants is control. What he demands is obedience. What Arthur hates more than weakness, vulnerability. When he claims Lydia as his bride, it’s not out of desire at all. It was all about power. About reminding everyone that the Romero never forget a debt, and never forgive betrayal and now she had to live through it. But there’s something about the fire in Lydia’s eyes. And with the way she resists thee pain even as the world collapses around her. This all made Arthur’s darkness grown in him. She was a pawn to him. But here she was, ready to burn the entire Kingdom. Trapped in his estate, surrounded by all his enemies and secrets, Lydia refuses to be the obedient wife Arthur expects. She’s not weak. She won’t give him her body. Especially not her heart. But desire has a mind of its own. The tension between them breaking them each. Every look is a battle for them. Every word is a dare to move a bit forward. And when they fight, they fight dirty, shattered trust, accidental touches that makes them both want more of each other. The closer Romero gets to her, the more his cold restraint slips from him. He wants her in ways he can’t explain and never wanted anyone before. Needed her in ways that terrify them both. And Lydia? She hated how much she notices Arthur. The way his voice drops when he’s angry. The way he watches her, starving. The way he never touches her… but makes her ache like he did. But this marriage was never built on love, respect, or kindness. It was built on debt, revenge. And some vows aren’t promises. They’re traps with each other. As secrets unravel, old enemies rise, and trust is shattered Lydia and Romero must decide now. Will they destroy each other first or burn the world together? With desire in them.
