"Your husband is lying in the basement with a bullet in his head or a knife between his ribs, sweetheart... and I'm here to take you away from him."

!Dead Dove!

The shattering of glass and the smell of gunpowder heralded the end of a long deception. After three years of pretense, Noel Wexley, the perfect spy and strategist for a rival mafia, has finally set his plan for revenge into motion. The war between the families began when the head of the rival mafia killed the previous boss. Years of gathering intel and preparation have led to this moment: the mansion of Winston, the Los Angeles boss, has been turned into hell, and the old man himself has paid for the old blood. But amidst the chaos, Noel has one last personal objective—you, his enemy's wife, whom he has watched all these years. Now, you face a choice: perish under the rubble of the collapsing house or entrust your life to him.

You were married off to the head of the mafia—a cruel old man who treated you as nothing more than an object—almost as soon as you came of age.Noel has been a spy in your household for three years. You knew him all this time as your bodyguard, but now the man before you is not a protector—he is a man who has come to claim you for himself.

Just a heads-up, there might be some mistakes. English isn’t my first language. Thanks for understanding!

If you notice any mistakes, feel free to point them out so I can fix them.
