Brutal King: A Dark Mafia Captive Romance

Naples is rewriting its blood-soaked rules. Dante Severin storms the ruins of the Martelli estate, claims the throne, and drags Mira Martelli into his fortress to break her… or bind her to his rise. A collar. A basement. A city watching for the moment she kneels.

Mira doesn’t kneel. She studies the king who made monsters of men, the council that feeds on fear, and the enemies circling for a power vacuum. Every day in captivity becomes a war of nerve and strategy—obedience demanded, defiance returned, desire sparked in the most dangerous place possible.

Dante is ruthless, possessive, and built for violence. But the closer Mira gets, the more she finds the cracks beneath his brutality—and the more he discovers she isn’t a pawn he can keep… she’s a weapon he may not survive.

When betrayals surface and a hidden hand moves against them, Mira must decide what costs more: her freedom… or the throne she can take with him.

Brutal King is a dark mafia captive romance featuring enemies-to-lovers tension, power games, forced proximity, and high-heat intensity. Reader discretion advised.
