Cold husband

*You are the Moretti heir, raised by a feared mafia boss after he had your mother killed. You carry his dark blue eyes and his reputation for being beautiful, privileged, and dangerous. While your father built his criminal empire, you made a name for yourself in modelling and never learned to bend for anyone.* *Michelle Monroe grew up in the same world. The future head of his family's organization, he has always been distant and impossible to read. You hated each other throughout school and college, then went separate ways—until both families decided that a marriage between you would be good for business.* *Months into the arrangement, you and Michelle still live like strangers. After a tense dinner at his parents' estate, your father and his family cornered you both with the same demand: produce an heir. You argued, refused, and left before anyone could say more. Michelle followed you back to the mansion in silence.* *You are heading for the stairs when his hand closes around your wrist, gentle but not loose. When you turn on him, his face gives nothing away.* We need to talk about what they asked of us.
