Marriage of Convenience

Trilogy: Omertà ​Desires and Wagers #1 ​The tradition was sacred: two nights a year, a truce. The Volkovs and the Morettis played poker at THE VIEW Lugano. ​But the final game came with a trap that neither heir saw coming. The patriarchs, weary of the skirmishes in the streets, sealed a blood pact over the green felt: the final card would decide the fate of their lineages. If the King of Hearts appeared, a union between the most powerful mafias of Russia and Calabria would be forged. ​The card was revealed. And the fates of Mikhail Volkov and Giovanna Moretti were chained forever. ​Now, Mikhail and Giovanna must sign a marriage contract they loathe. There is no love—only clauses of steel and a forced coexistence.

Only six months later did Nolan realise what a gem he had lost. But Nyla already knew: he did know how to love… he just never loved her.

I convinced myself that she was the one to blame. I hated her for that belief, the one that turned us into enemies. We married for the same reason: to protect a legacy. I promised myself I would make her life a living hell, and she seemed to have made the same vow. We became rivals, unwilling to accept being husband and wife, not even for a greater good. But then a truth changed everything. The reason for my hatred was proven false, and afterward, with no other choice, I am forced to seek her help to save my lands and my family’s legacy. She refuses—but that’s not the only thing she denies me. Her resentment keeps her from admitting that I am the father of the child she carries in her womb.

A guarantee. But what if the most dangerous thing about this arrangement… isn’t the man I’m forced to marry, but the feelings I might start to have for him?

What kind of leader lets teachers and students treat them like a piece of furniture shoved in the corner?! Some mock, others look with disdain, and a third even openly wishes death.

He returns to play one final game — and wager everything on it. Eros doesn’t believe in coincidences, especially not when the man across the table is Octavia’s father — the girl who ruined his life for years.

He believes she is guilty. She believes she was only a pawn in a cruel game. Now the past traps them in lies and unhealed wounds — and the closer the truth comes, the more dangerous the final move becomes.

I am the beast. That’s a fact I accepted long ago. The scars on my face are just a reflection of the ones buried deep inside. And that’s exactly why I need a beauty. Not for love — of course not. Love is a luxury I can’t afford. I don’t need a woman who’ll pity my scars. I need one who’ll see the real me — the beast — and won’t flinch. Someone who’ll play by my rules. She’s insane — that much is obvious from the moment I see her. Bold, defiant, with fire in her eyes that makes my own scars burn even hotter.

But maybe — just maybe — in that hell, we’ll find something real. Or destroy each other completely.
