MARRIED TO THE DEVIL’S SONUpdated at Jul 5, 2025, 15:10
“Do you Alessia Morano, take this man Matto De Luca, to be your lawfully wedded husband…?”I blinked. My heart thudded against my ribs, wild and uneven, like it was trying to run but there was nowhere to go. Not in this dress. Not in this room full of faces I barely knew, all watching, all waiting. Not with my father in the front row, eyes shining with hope. Or pride. Or pressure. I couldn’t tell anymore.I glanced at him—the man I was about to marry.He looked calm. Too calm. Standing there in that perfect suit, expression unreadable, like this was just another business deal he had already shaken hands on. And maybe it was. For him.But for me?This was a leap into a future I hadn’t chosen. A door closed behind me as I stepped over a line I couldn’t uncross.My throat tightened. My palms were damp inside my gloves. I wanted to scream. Or run. Or ask why. Why this man? Why now? Why me?But instead, I smiled.A small, practised, polished smile that didn’t reach my eyes.And I whispered, barely audible.“I do.”"I never thought I'd trade my freedom for a devil's bargain, but one glance at Matteo De Luca’s piercing gaze and I knew I was doomed. The son of the infamous De Luca crime family, he's ruthless, seductive, and determined to make me his. As his wife, I'm trapped in a world of luxury and danger, where one wrong move could be fatal. But as I succumb to his charms, I realise the devil's son may not be the monster I thought he was. Can I survive the darkness that comes with loving him, or will our forbidden love destroy us both? Will I become his forever, or break free from the chains of his love?"
