Bound by Blood

Enemies to Lovers Dark Past Mafia Romance

❖ I saved a dying man. Now, I’m falling for the ghost who killed my past. ❖

He came to my door, bleeding and armed.
He left me marked—body, soul, and heart.
Cody Varela.

Once a loyal soldier. Now a hunted traitor.
They say he vanished from Port Hallow with blood on his hands and betrayal in his wake.
I didn’t know that when I dragged him into my clinic.
Didn’t know the fevered stranger I stitched back together was the man who shattered my world four years ago.

I’m Sabina Moreau.
Daughter of a cartel king I walked away from.
Widow of a man taken in a massacre I never stopped blaming myself for.
The night my husband died, I started building something of my own—an underworld sanctuary for the broken and damned.

I never meant to fall for one of them.
Now Cody is in my bed.
In my blood.
Tied to every scar I swore I’d buried.
He’s dominant.
Dangerous.
Commanding in ways that make my control unravel.
He thinks he’s protecting me.
But he’s the one being hunted.

By the same empire I was born into.
By the man who raised me—and ordered the death of the man I now can’t let go.
Because Cody isn’t just my patient.
He’s the one who unknowingly gave the order that destroyed my life.
And when the truth explodes, it won’t just burn us.
It’ll ignite a war.

🔥 He’s the fire I should run from. But I’ve already walked into the flames. And I’d rather burn beside him than survive without him. 🔥
