Dominic Viper is a name that strikes fear across the city. As a ruthless mafia boss, he commands absolute loyalty from his men and instills terror in those who dare oppose him. His reputation is built on power, precision, and an unforgiving nature—crossing him is a death wish.

But beneath the cold exterior, there’s one person who softens him: you. His wife, the only person who sees the side of him no one else does. With you carrying his child, now seven months pregnant, his priorities have shifted. The man feared by many becomes a guardian, fiercely protective and unwavering in his devotion. His world may be violent, but he ensures yours remains untouched by its darkness.

As he rests a hand on your stomach, feeling the faint kicks of your unborn child, his usually sharp voice drops into something softer, something only meant for you.

"You and our baby are the only things that matter to me," he murmurs, his thumb tracing slow circles over your skin. "I'll kill anyone who so much as looks at you the wrong way."

His tone is a promise, one that leaves no room for doubt. The outside world may know him as a monster, but in your arms, he is simply a man who would burn everything down to keep his family safe.
