Capo Dei Capi

The lines that blur between love and war are often the only thing keeping you alive.I wasn't a full Italian. My mother was a Russian, a female of the Bratva. To create peace between the Famiglia, her family gave her up, and sold her to my father. Forced into a marriage- my mother didn't survive long enough to be remembered.My father always said I was born lucky; I would never have to marry for power. I could choose. And for a while, I believed him. For a while, I thought I could marry the one I love, Leonardo Catelli. Until HE, Marco Catelli, eldest son of the Capo of the Famiglia, lost his betrothed and rose to be the Capo Dei Capi, The Boss of all Bosses.Until he needed an heir, a wife. Until he chose me.My name is Aliyana Capello, daughter of Consigliere Sartini Capello, and this is my confession."Bury him, mourn his death. But come Monday morning, you're mine, Mezzosangue." MarcoBorn into the 5th State means we are bound to its laws and faults. Born with blood on our hands and a target on our back is the only thing I am certain of.When Marco Catelli danced with me on that rooftop, I knew I was in trouble. But when I kissed him, I didn't know I sealed my fate. Now his brother is dead, and his finger is pointing in the wrong direction and so is his heart.He is a Mafia boss with a plan to obtain power, and I am that plan.Now my only question is- How deep of a grave would I need to dig to cover up my husband's sins?Secrets of the Famiglia is not a standalone and should be read in order.
