Bound by His Heir, Trapped in His War

One reckless night left Serena pregnant by her boss—a ruthless mafia heir who doesn't ask, he commands. She thought she could vanish into anonymity, escape the danger and the man who now owns a piece of her future. But Christian doesn't let go. He forces her into a fake engagement, dragging her into a glittering world of wealth and bloodshed where every smile hides a threat and every promise comes with a price. She's supposed to play the perfect fiancée, bear his child, and walk away. No feelings. No complications. But as secrets about her own past surface—secrets that could destroy them both—the lines between pretend and real begin to blur. Christian fights to shield his family from enemies closing in, while Serena struggles to survive a life she never chose. The rules were simple: don't fall in love. But when survival and desire collide, rules shatter. He swore to protect her. She swore to stay detached. Now neither can keep their promise.
