Blood Vows
I was sent to kill him.
He was sent to kill me.
Instead, we found each other at the same rooftop, blades drawn, and neither of us finished the job.
Now the Family orders me to seduce the very same man: Lucius Ravelle—the untouchable king of the business underworld, and heir to the dynasty my bloodline betrayed. Decades ago, the Marchesis and Ravelles swore peace at a candlelit table. By dawn, a Ravelle heir was dead with a Marchesi blade in his throat.
The truce shattered, the vendetta began, and the graves continued to fill.
To the Family, I’m the perfect Marchesi heiress. Their obedient blade. A pawn dressed in velvet, meant to lure him in and bleed him dry. Yet, if I falter, I’m nothing. If I fail, I die.
But Lucius isn’t a man who falls into traps…
He builds them.
The longer I play this game, the more I realize the truth:
He isn’t my mark. He’s my obsession.
And I… I am his.
But between us lies a vendetta written in blood—and loving him may be the first and last mistake I ever make.
