Stolen

She stole my watch while looking me in the eye.
She smiled like it was a question.

I have spent thirty-four years being the cleverest man in every room and one second discovering I wasn't. I should have had her stopped at the gate. Instead I let her run, because a woman who wants you to know she beat you wants something else too, and I intend to find out what.

I am Dario Moretti. The banks are mine, the exchanges are mine, and I have never once signed my name. My family calls it discipline.

She calls it evidence.

Because the watch was her father's. Because her father was born a Moretti. And because the thing I inherited was never a throne.

It was a cage. And I was the first thing they bought to fill it.

Gia Bellandi has spent fifteen years taking back what was stolen. Now she's walked into the one house that stole from her first, with a marriage certificate, a claim to the seat, and a list of things she'd die for. Dario isn't on it. Yet.

Two claimants. One vault that opens only to both their pulses. A grandmother who has already decided which of them walks out. And a man who has never put his hand to paper, about to learn that the first signature of his life will hand everything he owns to the woman he's falling for.

He has one rule: never sign.
She has one job: make him.

Neither of them is walking out with their rules intact.
