Alessandra Morino has spent her whole life as an assassin, always being a shadow in the dark. Luciano Moretti is a name that is feared all over America and Italy, the whole world in fact. He is the Don of the Italian Mafia. Both are people you do not want to cross. When Alessandra and Luciano team up to bring down a common enemy, sparks fly and not necessarily the good kind too.

She battles  demons that threaten to swallow her whole.
He  is the devil incarnate, searching for his angel.
This is the story of two people who are so different yet so similar, who intrigue each other as much as they intimidate each other. 

'A King is nothing without his Queen. You are far more than my Queen, tesoro.'

Note: This story breaks certain stereotypes surrounding mafia stories so please do give it a chance.

"Have you seen today's papers?" Angelo all but shoves the paper into my face as I enter the kitchen. 


"Morning to you too, Angelo." I say in a dry tone and he rolls his eyes. Luciano peers over my shoulder to read the headlines. My eyes widen as I look at the huge headline with a picture of us from yesterday below it. 


"LUCIANO MORETTI ATTENDS HIS FOUNDATION'S GALA WITH A DATE. How did they get my name so fast?" I ask when I read the rest of the article. 


"That's not all they got. You're all over the Internet. They know everything about you." Emilia says, showing us TMZ's website on her iPad. She was right, every tabloid magazine and online news site had us in the front page and they certainly had details about me such as my job and so on.
