Beautiful Heir by Iris T Cannon

He’s the beautiful heir to a mafia empire.
But crowns don’t make kings—power does.

I once had her on her knees.
Gun to her head. Finger on the trigger.
And I let her live.
That mistake carved itself into me—followed me all the way to the throne.
Because now I’m the Don. And mercy like that? It doesn’t come without a price.
Her bloodline should have ended that night.
I made sure of it.
Now she’s back. Breathing. Walking. Existing where she shouldn’t.
A loose end. A liability.
This time, I won’t hesitate.
I’ll finish what I started.
Even if it means killing the only girl I couldn’t forget.

He took everything from me.
My family. My name. My past.
I was hidden away—locked behind stone walls and whispered prayers, raised to forget the world that tried to erase me.
But the underworld doesn’t forget.
Now it’s found me again.
Darker. Hungrier. Ready to finish what it started.
And the man at the center of it all…
Is him.
The one who should have killed me.
But let me live.
I should run. I should hide. I should hate him.
But when the darkness closes in, there’s only one truth I can’t escape—
The only man who can save me…
Is the one who destroyed me first.
