Poisoned Empire: Dark Mafia Romance (Dashkov Crime Family #2)
Jo McCall
The second installation to Ava and Matthias's story...
They thought I was weak.
A pawn in their twisted game.
Insignificant. Disposable.
They were wrong.
Matthias stole me from my gilded cage, slid a ring on my finger, and claimed me in his bed.
The Bratva boss’s icy walls began to crack—until he decided I betrayed him.
Now he thinks he can control me. Lock me away. Break me.
Christian thought the same.
Both forgot one thing—
I am no one’s pawn.
I’ve come back stronger. Fiercer.
A warrior. A queen.
And I will watch their empire crumble…
until nothing remains but a Poisoned Empire
