MY FAMILY SOLD ME SO I BUILT AN EMPIRE

sandraandra342 Mafia

“They sold her for a debt. They created a queen. Isabella Moretti was born into a wealthy Italian family, raised to believe that blood was thicker than anything in the world. She was wrong. On the night of her twenty-second birthday, Isabella discovers that her own father has sold her to Dante De Luca-the ruthless mafia king feared by every powerful family in Italy. The price of her freedom? A debt her family cannot repay. A secret she doesn't know exists. And a lifetime under the control of a man who despises everything her surname represents. Dante De Luca doesn't believe in love. He believes in power, loyalty and making his enemies suffer. Isabella is supposed to be nothing more than a pawn in his revenge against her family. But she refuses to behave like one. Behind her innocent eyes is a mind capable of learning his world, anticipating his moves and turning his greatest allies against him. The more Dante tries to control her, the more dangerous she becomes. Their hatred turns into an obsession neither of them is willing to admit. Every stolen glance feels like a betrayal. Every moment of trust could be a trap. But Isabella has bigger plans than surviving Dante De Luca. She will uncover the secret her family buried, destroy the people who sold her and build an empire so powerful that nobody will ever dare to own her again. Even Dante. Especially Dante. Because when the truth finally comes out, the mafia king may discover that the woman he bought is the one person capable of bringing him to his knees. They sold her as a daughter. They feared her as an enemy. They will remember her as a queen. In a world where love is weakness and betrayal is currency, becoming ruthless may be the only way to survive.”
