My father murdered his so the king took me prisoner as his wife.

Once upon a time....

A dark King named Enzo Vitalli ruled New York. 

I used to believe in fairy tales until a winter night, a rival mob set my world on fire. I'm Roza Inavov, the young prized Mafia Princess of the Russian Solntsevskaya Bratva, the Pakhan's daughter. The monster put me in a gilded cage in his kingdom and threw away the key.

My happily ever after never came.

It wasn't prince charming that came for me, but the Mad King himself. The brutal Italian's dark beauty is violent and wicked. This is my life sentence for my father's sins. I must atone for a debt claimed because he always collects. 

My outspoken mouth gets me in trouble, and the bruises he gives me have become too frequent on my fair flesh, leaving scars behind. The people around me look away as my innocence is shed until one stare lingers. 

Bodyguards are meant to be protectors, not lovers.

One beauty. Two beasts. Three lives. One love.
