Empire of Venom: Dark Mafia Romance

SOFIA

I put a bullet in my husband’s chest beneath the eyes of both families.

The world watched Alessio De Santis fall. My father called it loyalty. His enemies called it an execution.

Only Alessio and I know what the gunshot truly bought us: one narrow chance to disappear before New York and Chicago tear each other apart.

Now we are hiding inside a dead casino owned by the mother who abandoned him, rebuilding an alliance from evidence, blood, and rules neither of us can afford to break again.

Then I find the black crown my mother used before she died.

The woman buried fifteen years ago has been building an empire in the dark—and she wants me to inherit it after Alessio is dead.

ALESSIO

Sofia’s bullet left me breathing and cost me Chicago.

My uncle has my captains. Her father has New York. Every man who swore loyalty to me is waiting to learn whether a dead boss can return angry enough to take back his throne.

I can reclaim the organization. I know where its money moves, which oaths are weak, and exactly how much fear each traitor requires.

Keeping my wife is harder.

Sofia saved my life without forgiving what I hid from her. She sleeps within reach and keeps an exit ready. Every touch is chosen. Every secret has a price.

When the war exposes an execution order bearing my signature, the blood between us becomes personal.

Someone used my hand to sentence her brother. I will tear through both families until Sofia knows whose name belonged on that grave.

This is the second book in The Black Crown Trilogy. Reading order:

Vows of Venom.

Empire of Venom.

Crown of Venom.
