Or so I thought.
Beneath a veil of anonymity, he lured out my secrets, fears, and desires.
Behind the mask, he could be anyone.
And somehow, it felt safer not knowing.
He comes to me under the cover of darkness, pulling me deeper into this forbidden game.
I give myself to him, knowing the consequences could destroy my life.
I just didn’t expect him to be the one to ruin me.
When the mask comes off, the truth cuts deep.
He isn’t just a man obsessed.
He’s the same man who’s hated me for the last nine years.
In the Cosa Nostra, they call him Il Lupo.
The wolf.
And all this time…
I’ve been his prey.
