A red-haired woman dressed like a ninja held a blood-stained sword, her face hidden behind a mask, only her fiery hazel eyes visible. In one swift motion, she slashed his arm, leaving him in pain and blood. As she turned to leave, he called out, “Who are you?” She paused and faced him, fire burning in her eyes, a smirk playing beneath her mask. “The monster you made.” Then she disappeared into the night. She was once the woman who loved him. Now, Sapphire swears to make his life a living hell. ~~~ Romero Cartel, the ruthless leader of the biggest mafia empire in the world. Wild, unforgiving, dangerous, heartless—and deadly. Filthy rich and devastatingly handsome, he was every woman’s desire. When his mother forced him to choose a wife before the entire panel, he pointed at a woman without even looking. That woman was Sapphire Marco—the gentle, innocent daughter of one of the Cartel family’s guards. Dragged into a marriage she never chose, Sapphire was treated like she was nothing. Romero never shared her room, never looked at her, and filled their home with other women. When he saw her crying after she was beaten, he coldly said, “I hate weak women.” Those words changed everything. Sapphire ran away and returned stronger—fearless, deadly, and impossible to break. But when she came back to show him the woman she had become, she found that he had taken another wife. Now she has only one promise: “Your life is mine to protect, and your blood is mine to shed.” Will she ever forgive him? Or will revenge destroy the last piece of love left between them?
