He Yearned for My Love but He Was Too Late

I stand frozen, like a deer caught in the headlights as the speeding car barrels toward me. The manic eyes of the driver lock onto mine, and I know—this isn’t an accident. The impact is a violent blur, pain crashing over me as I crumple to the pavement, darkness swallowing me whole.

She hits me, and I fall to the pavement; the pain is so intense that I lose consciousness. I wake up to the medical staff hovering around me and, amid the haze, see a familiar figure: Rocco, my Mafia boyfriend of four years, his face twisted in concern. But beside him, smirking and composed, is Bianca—his personal assistant and my would-be assassin. As I lie in a pool of my own blood, I realize with horror that I was pregnant and had a miscarriage. And now, with every drop I’ve lost, my worst fears materialize: I’m not just fighting for my life, but for my place in Rocco’s world.

Doesn’t he suspect that his assistant wants to kill me so that she can take over my place as his girlfriend? What other sinister motives does she have, and how far is she willing to go to get rid of me? The shadows of betrayal loom large as I unravel the truth lurking behind the façade of service and loyalty.

I’m Isabella, caught in a deadly game where the stakes are higher than I ever imagined. And now, it’s a race against time to protect my life before I become just another casualty in the dark underbelly of the Mafia.
