Savage Proposal by Bella Ash

Lorenzo:
My empire rose from bloodshed, betrayal, and ruthless brutality.
My heart turned to stone the night they took Sienna from me, leaving nothing but cold, merciless vengeance.
Love is a weakness I buried alongside her.
But then Isabella Rossi falls into my grasp—scarred, defiant, and hauntingly like Sienna.
She’s a pawn, a means to an end, forced to bear the heir that will solidify my legacy.
Yet her fiery resistance ignites something violent and primal in me—an obsession I can’t afford.
Falling for her is a risk I can’t take. In my world, love doesn’t save.
It destroys.

Isabella:
Sold by my own father to Lorenzo Vitali, a man forged in violence and cloaked in cruelty, I become his captive, bound by chains heavier than steel.
He demands an heir, his very touch threatening to unravel me completely. I should despise him, fear him—but the true danger lies deeper.
But it’s not the demand that terrifies me; it’s him.
There’s a darkness in Lorenzo, seductive yet terrifying, dragging me into an abyss from which there’s no return. My heart is betraying me, craving the monster who holds me captive.
But men like Lorenzo Vitali don’t merely break—they consume until nothing remains.
And I refuse to vanish into his darkness.
