I’m Antony D’Agostino. Known as the Young Lion, I’m Cleveland mafia royalty.

I snap my fingers, and people jump. In my world, people fall all over themselves to do my bidding.

Except for Serafina Mucci.

Daughter of an aging patriarch, she should be lining up with all the other women of our dark society for my attentions.
Instead, she defies me. Hates me.
Infuriates me, and tantalizes me.

Each time I see her, my blood runs hotter for her.
Each time I see her, I am more determined to have her. To taste her. To break her.

Damn her beauty. Damn my foolish pride.
I own everything and everyone in this town.
And I will own Sera.
