Ruthless Oath: A Dark Mafia Romance

by Vivienne Shade

He was meant to be my tormentor.
Not my salvation.
Not the man who sets my heart on fire.

They took everything from me—my freedom, my name, my will.
In a house built on pain, I learned to stay silent to survive.
Until he came.

A man of ice and precision.
Merciless. Demanding.
His gaze commands obedience; his touch steals my breath.

He rules a world of violence and betrayal.
I was just a pawn, created to be broken.
But he doesn’t play by their rules.

He watches me, protects me, destroys anyone who gets too close.
I should hate him.
He is the monster they warned me about—
and the only one I cannot escape.

Every word he speaks pulls me deeper into his darkness.
Every whisper makes me weaker.
And somewhere along the way, I start to wonder—
am I his weakness… or his downfall?

Because if I fall, I lose more than my freedom.
I lose myself—to the man who was never meant to love.
