The mafia demon’s phantom wife

"A magical assassin must marry a half-demon mafia boss to save her brother." She can walk through any door in the world, but she can’t outrun the man who owns the shadows—or the beast that claims her blood. Charlène Laurent is a phantom of the Italian underworld—a high-end assassin with a lethal signature: a blackened-gold key that turns any locked door into a portal. To buy time for her dying brother, Charlène has sold her soul to a monster, vanishing before the blood of her targets even cools. She is a Ghost, known only by her icy-grey eyes and the mark of the man who owns her. Viktor Morozov is that man. A Russian Don who is more animal than human, Viktor is cursed by the night—a predatory werewolf who rules through terror and obsession. He doesn't just want Charlène’s skills; he wants to ruin her. He has branded her with his initials and kept her brother on a literal leash of medicine and machines. To Viktor, Charlène is a "Doll" to be played with until she breaks. Lucien De Rossi is the ruthless heir to a modern empire and a man struggling to remain human. Born of a forbidden union between a mafia king and a daughter of the devil, Lucien is a half-demon prince with fire in his veins. He has never felt a spark for any woman—until he dances with a mysterious "Ghost" at a masquerade. For the first time, his inner demon falls silent. The hunt turns personal when Charlène is sent to kill Lucien. But how do you kill a man who heals as fast as you can cut him? Caught in his trap, Charlène is forced into a marriage of convenience. Now, she is caught in a war between two monsters: the Demon who has turned her world into a gilded cage, and the Wolf who is coming to take back what he thinks is his property. One wants to protect her. The other wants to devour her. And Charlène? She just wants to survive the night.
