They told Matteo DeLuca she was poison. A traitor. A risk they had to eliminate.
He believed them. He let the hunt begin.
For two years, he ruled his dark empire haunted by a lie. He tried to forget the woman he broke, the woman he sentenced to a life on the run.
But when his men find Lena Cruz collapsed in the rain?exposed and vulnerable?they don't just find a fugitive they thought they'd forgotten. They find the definitive proof that the entire DeLuca dynasty is built on sand:
A three-year-old girl with the unmistakable, lethal DeLuca eyes.
You think you know cold fear? You haven't felt the ice in your veins when the man you love?the man who owns the city?stands over your hospital bed, offering a gilded cage you can't refuse, yet still unable to offer the truth about why he abandoned you.
Lena survived. She ran. She became a ghost to protect the only truth that mattered: Isabella.
Now, the ghost she never finished burying?Matteo?is back. He sees his daughter and the lie that separated them combusts in an overwhelming, lethal devotion. He offers a shield of money and power. He offers protection.
But in the unforgiving hierarchy of the mafia, children are not gifts. They are strategic assets.
The Family Council knows about the child.
Don Angelo sees a priceless pawn. The ruthless enforcer Rosa sees the perfect leverage to seize control. They intend to use this innocent girl to secure their legacy. Matteo sees a daughter he is willing to incinerate his entire legacy to save.
