Claimed Again By The Ruthless Don Seven years ago, Elena Vitale walked away from Dominic Salvatore with nothing but a note and a ring left on the nightstand and let him believe she'd betrayed him. The truth was the opposite: she left *to save him* from a threat he never knew existed. He's spent seven years hating her for a lie. Now her brother's debt drags her straight back to the one door she swore she'd never knock on again. Dominic isn't the boy she left. He's the Don cold, untouchable, feared by men twice his age. And he doesn't want an apology. He wants her back. His roof. His rules. His ring. No conditions, no negotiations. She tells herself it's a transaction. He tells herself it's revenge. Neither of them believes it. But the lie that tore them apart seven years ago hasn't stayed buried and when it finally surfaces, it won't just wreck what's left between them. It could burn down everything Dominic has built. Some loves don't end. They just wait for the right moment to claim what's theirs.
