Introduction

Lily's world is upended when two strangers arrive at her family's door seeking answers about a missing friend. Before she knows it, Lily finds herself a virtual prisoner in the lavish estate of Don Bianchi, the ruthless leader of the most dangerous mafia family in the city. Forced to take the place of the Don's recently deceased daughter to protect her own family from retaliation, Lily must shed her old identity and adopt the etiquette and duties of mafia royalty.

Just when she earns a precarious acceptance, Lily faces new threats from the Don's cunning son Luca, who torments her with unwanted advances for his own cruel amusement. As Lily desperately continues her lessons to cement her place in the family, sinister accusations arise against her loyalty. Determined to escape this gilded cage and protect her family at all costs, Lily gambles everything to gather evidence against her tormentors. But Luca always lurks in the shadows, playing a twisted game only he knows the rules to.

Will Lily expose the Bianchis’ dark secrets? Or will the heir to the underground empire shatter this delicate flower plucked from her safe little garden? Fate hangs in the balance as Lily fights to reclaim the power she didn't choose to surrender—before the cunning viper ensnares her or she poisons him first.

Chapter 1

The pounding on the front door jolted me awake. I sat bolt upright in bed, my heart racing. Who could be banging at our door at this early hour? I looked over at my little sister Amy, still fast asleep despite the racket. My other sister Sarah wasn't in the bed we shared. She must already be up.

I crept out of bed and pressed my ear against the bedroom door. Muffled voices filtered from downstairs. I couldn't make out what they were saying, but the tone sounded urgent.

Taking a deep breath, I turned the knob and stepped into the hall. The old wood floors creaked under my bare feet as I made my way to the top of the stairs. Crouching low, I peered between the bannisters.

Two men stood in our entryway dressed in tailored suits. Sarah was speaking to them in hushed tones while our parents looked on nervously from the living room. I strained to hear the conversation.

"...didn't know, I swear it!" Sarah insisted, wringing her hands. "We haven't heard from her in weeks."

One of the men, tall with slick black hair, shook his head. "Mr. Bianchi doesn't believe in coincidences. He sent us here for answers."

Mr. Bianchi. The name was infamous in this city. He was the ruthless leader of the most dangerous Mafia family around. What could he possibly want with us?

Sarah's eyes were wide, her face pale. "Surely there's been some mistake—"

The man cut her off. "Mr. Bianchi is not in the habit of making mistakes." He held out an envelope sealed with a wax emblem—a sprig of belladonna. "This is for you. We'll be back tomorrow for your...response."

With that, the men turned and strode out of the house, letting the front door slam behind them. Sarah stood frozen, envelope in hand, as Mom and Dad hurried over.

"What is it, dear? What did they want?" Mom asked breathlessly.

Hands shaking, Sarah broke the seal and unfolded the letter inside. The three of them huddled to read it, their eyes growing wider with each line.

I'd seen enough. Moving as soundlessly as I could, I rushed back to the bedroom I shared with Amy. My little sister was just starting to stir.

"Lily? What's going on?" she mumbled sleepily.

"Shh," I whispered, pressing a finger to my lips. I shook my head, not wanting to scare her. "Go back to sleep. Everything's fine."

But it wasn't. Nothing had been 'fine' since we lost Rose six months ago. Sarah's best friend and closest confidante, dead in a tragic accident. Sarah had been inconsolable for weeks. She still cried at night when she thought no one could hear.

And now this visit from the Bianchis at dawn, demanding answers we apparently didn't have. Mr. Bianchi's reputation preceded him. Whatever he wanted, refusing was not an option.

I sat on the edge of the bed, listening to the muffled voices from downstairs. The tone grew more heated as Sarah's voice raised to a hysterical pitch. After what felt like an eternity, heavy footsteps sounded on the stairs. My bedroom door flew open, and Sarah burst in with rage in her eyes.

"You!" she seethed, pointing at me. "This is all your fault!"

I recoiled, stunned by her venom. "What are you talking about?"

"Don't play dumb. I always knew you were jealous of my friendship with Rose. And now you've ruined everything!"

"Sarah, calm down. I have no idea what you mean." I tried to reason with her, but she was beyond listening.

Mom and Dad appeared in the doorway, their faces grim. Dad kept wringing his hands while Mom attempted to soothe Sarah.

"Please darling, we don't know anything for sure yet. Perhaps the letter was a mistake. We can sort this out."

But Sarah was inconsolable, sobbing into Mom's shoulder. I looked between them helplessly, completely at a loss. What had been in that letter?

Finally Dad stepped forward, clearing his throat. "Girls, there's something...something your mother and I must discuss with you both." His voice was grave.

Amy sat up in bed, glancing around in confusion. "Dad, you're scaring me. What's going on?"

"Shh. Come here, sweetheart." He opened his arms and Amy rushed over to hug him tightly. Sarah continued to cry.

When we had all gathered around, Dad lowered himself into the rocking chair by the window. The growing morning light illuminated the worry lines on his face. I noticed for the first time how old and frail he looked.

"Girls, what I have to tell you will come as a shock," he began heavily. "I'm afraid we've been keeping something from you. Something about...about Rose."

Sarah's head jerked up, mascara running down her face. "What about her?" she demanded.

Dad turned his gaze out the window. "Rose...Rose wasn't who you thought she was. Her real name was Rosa Bianchi. Mr. Bianchi's daughter."

The room went dead silent as his words sunk in. Bianchi's daughter? Rose? It didn't seem possible. Rose had been Sarah's best friend for years. Surely she would have told her the truth.

Amy spoke up first, her voice small. "I don't understand. Why would she lie about who she was?"

"For protection, I imagine," Mom said quietly. "Can you imagine the danger she would have been in if her true identity was known?" She looked pointedly at Sarah. "I suspect she kept it secret to protect you as much as herself."

"No. No, I can't believe it!" Sarah cried. "She wouldn't have lied to me! She trusted me!"

My heart broke for my sister. She and Rose had been so close, like sisters themselves. To learn it had all been a fabrication was a crushing blow.

I went to her and laid a comforting hand on her shoulder. To my surprise, she wrenched away from my touch.

"Don't!" she hissed. "This is your fault! If you hadn't killed Rose, none of this would be happening!"

I stumbled back, shocked by the accusation. "Killed her? Are you insane?"

Amy's eyes were wide. "You think Lily had something to do with Rose's accident?"

"It was no accident!" Sarah shrieked. "I know you always hated her, Lily. You were jealous of what we had! And now...now..." She dissolved into sobs again.

My heart pounded. Is that what she truly believed? That I had murdered her best friend out of petty jealousy?

"Enough!" Dad said firmly. "No one killed Rose. It was a tragic accident, nothing more. Right now, we must focus on the situation at hand."

He held up the letter that had sparked this whole mess. His face was grim.

"Mr. Bianchi's men will return tomorrow for our answer. Rose's death has created a complicated situation. With Mr. Bianchi's only daughter gone, it leaves a...a vacancy that must be filled."

Cold dread washed over me. No. They couldn't possibly expect....

Dad's shoulders slumped in defeat. "I'm afraid one of you girls must take Rose's place within the Bianchi family."

Amy gasped. Sarah let out a strangled sob. I stood frozen, my mind racing.

Join the most dangerous Mafia in the city? Me, Amy, or Sarah? It was impossible. Suicidal.

Mom wrapped her arms around Sarah and Amy. "Surely there must be some other way," she pleaded to Dad. "Our girls can't be expected to pay this price for Rose's death."

Dad's face was grim. "I'm afraid refusal is not an option. If we deny Mr. Bianchi's demand..." He swallowed hard. "Well, I fear what would happen to this family."

Heavy silence filled the room. I wavered unsteadily on my feet. This had to be a nightmare I would wake up from.

Finally, Sarah lifted her head. Her eyes bored into mine, cold as ice.

"Lily will do it," she declared. "It's only right."

All eyes turned to me. I shook my head mutely, unable to form words. Surely she didn't mean...

Dad blinked rapidly, distress clear on his face. "Sarah, you can't ask your sister to sacrifice herself. Not when it was your friend..."

Sarah cut him off sharply. "It's already decided. Lily will take Rose's place." Her lip curled in disgust as she looked at me. "A life for a life."

No. This couldn't be real. They couldn't expect me to walk into the viper's nest of the Mafia. But as I looked around at the faces of my family, I saw no reprieve. Amy appeared confused and upset by Sarah's decree. Mom just looked resigned, her eyes downcast. And Dad...Dad seemed to crumble before my eyes, the weight of his despair leaving him unable to argue.

I wanted to scream, to cry, to fight back against the injustice of it all. But I knew it was useless. Once Sarah made up her mind, there was no swaying her. And with the threat of the Bianchis looming, she had all the leverage she needed to force me into this nightmare.

As I stood there, gazing at my sister who so clearly despised me, one thought became crystal clear. If I had any chance of surviving this ordeal, it would be on my own. I could expect no mercy or protection from Sarah. She would gladly feed me to the wolves to absolve her own guilt over Rose's death.

I don't know how, but in that moment something hardened within me. If this was to be my fate, so be it. But I would not go quietly, without a fight. Mr. Bianchi and his ilk may think I'm just a pawn to be manipulated, but they had no idea who they were dealing with.

Let them underestimate me. I vowed in that moment to do whatever it took to endure this trial and emerge on the other side, wherever that may lead. Even if it meant walking straight into the lion's den alone.

So I stood tall, lifted my chin, and met Sarah's accusing stare dead-on. "As you wish, sister," I said with quiet resolve. "I'll take Rose's place."
