Alessandro "Lex" De Marco ruled the streets of New York with an iron fist. His mafia empire was built on fear and respect. But there was one person who made him weak: y/n.

Lex first saw y/n at a charity gala. She was breathtaking, with piercing green eyes and raven hair. He had to have her.

Their whirlwind romance swept y/n off her feet. Lex showered her with gifts, attention, and protection. But soon, his possessiveness suffocated her.

"Who was that man you talked to?" Lex growled, his eyes narrowing.

"Just a colleague," y/n replied, trembling.

Lex's grip on her arm tightened. "You're mine, y/n. No one else touches you."

Y/n tried to escape, but Lex's grip was unyielding. He monitored her every move, dictating her life.

One fateful night, y/n's friend, Sarah, convinced her to sneak out for a girls' night. Lex's men followed, reporting back to him.

Furious, Lex stormed into the club, dragging y/n out. "You'll never disobey me again," he snarled.

Y/n realized she had to escape. With Sarah's help, she planned a daring escape.
