He was the man every student feared, and the one she couldn’t stop wanting. Professor Cassian Draven was untouchable, sharp, commanding, devastatingly handsome, and completely off limits. Aria Vale knew falling for him was reckless, but when his gaze lingered too long, when his voice dropped lower just for her, the temptation became inevitable. Between whispered lectures and late-night office visits, desire turns to obsession, and rules shatter. But secrets can’t stay buried forever. And in a world where reputation means everything… love might be the most dangerous lesson of all.

She ruled the underworld like a queen. Feared. Untouchable. Heartless. Valentina Russo doesn’t make mistakes until the night she lets desire win. One stranger. One reckless, heated encounter. No names, no promises. Just fire. But when the man who should have been a memory resurfaces, he’s not just anyone. Dominic Cross is a ghost—ex-special forces, lethal and untraceable. And he’s about to ignite a war that could burn her empire to the ground. Power. Betrayal. Obsession. In a world where love is a weakness, will she risk everything for him… or destroy them both? A dark, intoxicating mafia romance with a ruthless queen and the one man who refuses to bow.
