The Mafia Princess' Ex-Husband

Leona Vetrov, the heiress of the most prominent criminal family became the 'tea' of the high society when she married the orphan her family had taken in years. It took her a betrayal to realize that the stab that cripples a person always comes from someone they trust and love blindly― her husband. After two years, they encounter each other again and in the face of danger, they rely on each other to survive. She is keen on keeping him away but her ex-husband seems… weirdly stubborn? He stops at nothing to win her back and make her his, all over again. As they grow close, Leona discovers bizarre secrets about herself that leaves her in shambles. The shadows of the past threaten to rip them apart and strange occurrences make them realize that the reality of their world and their lives is not as simple as they had known it to be. Will they clear their misunderstandings and face the dangers together or will their second-chance encounter go down in flames, forever marking the end of the possibility of them? … Excerpt: ‘’Marry me.’’ Leona glared at the man who had the audacity to say those words, ‘’I can’t wait to kill you and you have the audacity to ask me to marry you. Aren’t you afraid I would kill you when you are sleeping?” ‘’I don’t mind.’’ ‘’Get lost!’’ she snapped. A few days later: The man lowered his head, looking deep into her eyes, his gaze sincere, ‘’Marry me.’’ Leona looked at the man speechlessly and waved her hand, ‘’You are my ex-husband.’’ Although they were on better terms now, but there was no way they were getting romantically entangled ever again. An eternity later: ‘’Won’t you marry me?” Leona looked at the man who was standing at a little distance from her, tears brimmed in her eyes as she spoke, ‘’I am in a pathetic state and I might implicate you too. I don’t know what’s happening to me and I don’t know what the future holds. I don’t even know who I am or what my past is…’’ The man covered the distance between them and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her closer, ‘’Do I look like I care?” As his words fell, her lips were captured in a fiery kiss that knocked the breath out of her.

I was observing

Thinking about Roman, Leona's gaze darkened. Although she had made the conversation about the man to distract him, but she was certain he must be aware of what happened by now. 

However, coming to think of it, she did not care what he knew or what he thought about it. 

At the end of the day, she only wanted her Uncle and Aunt to not know about this matter unless they start worrying endlessly. 

And Roman would not meddle in things that did not involve him. Even if he did, some things could not be helped. So, it was pointless for her to worry about it.

''Coming to think of it, people of your family all seem like silly fools to me. Why else would they think that you are a mad woman? Can they not see your scheming nature...'' the cat's words trailed off when Leona narrowed her eyes. 

''It is not up to you to talk about my family,'' Leona tilted her head down, observing the tiny thing in front of her, ''Why don't you tell me about you?" 

''M-Me?"
