Owned by shadows

Amelia Khumalo was never meant to be part of his world.
One wrong turn.
One secret witnessed.
One moment that changed everything.
Luke Moretti doesn’t make mistakes.
As the young and ruthless head of a powerful mafia empire, he controls everything and everyone. Fear follows his name, and loyalty is the only currency that matters.
So when Amelia sees something she shouldn’t… letting her go isn’t an option.
Now she’s trapped in a world of secrets, danger, and shadows that never let go.
Luke tells himself it’s just business.
Just control.
Just protection.
But Amelia isn’t like the others.
She challenges him.
Defies him.
Sees the parts of him no one else dares to look at.
And the more he tries to keep his distance… the harder it becomes.
Because in a world where love is weakness. Falling for her could destroy him. And staying with him… could destroy her.
