TALE OF THE LOST DAUGHTER is set in a fictional world and by no means whatever is stated in the book is real. Please remember real-life mafia is very immoral and harmful to people.

This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events, and incidents are the products of the author's imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

The novel TOTLD presents a gripping and intense portrayal of the world of organized crime, delving into the dark and mature themes that are often associated with the Mafia.

These themes include but are not limited to, bullying, torture, suicidal thoughts, blood and gore, sexual assault, flashbacks, and manipulation. The portrayal of these themes is a true reflection of the reality of the Mafia, where morality is often nonexistent and the lines between right and wrong are blurred.

It is essential to be mindful that these mature themes may cause distress or trigger certain individuals. To this end, specific trigger warnings will be placed within the relevant chapters to allow readers to make informed decisions about their reading material.

While the novel contains several disturbing elements, it is important to note that the relationship between the main characters is depicted as being entirely consensual, and portrays a healthy and loving dynamic between the two individuals.

Please read this book with an open mind. It is not for a light-hearted person.

[excerpt]

"You are mine, darling. I want everything about you, your heart, your soul, and your body. I want your undivided attention, smiles, thundering rage, and tears. Everything about you. I would do anything to keep you close; things which would even make monsters have nightmares," he husked, his warm breath fanning over her neck, sending shivers down her spine.

Any sane woman would have run for her life the moment she saw his insanity, the desire pooling in his eyes, and the possessive words he spoke. Instead, she leaned closer to him, brushing the untamed strands from his forehead and gently tucking them behind his ear.

"As much as you are mine," she countered, her olive eyes gazing into his obsidian ones. Her words made him smile. Just one more reason that made him fall deeper for her. He pulled her closer, placing a feathery kiss on the hollow of her neck.

"Of course, my little one."
