Silent Lies: An Age Gap Arranged Marriage Mafia Romance (Perfectly Imperfect Book 8)

DRAGO

There is only one punishment for spies and liars,
A slow and painful death.
And my sweet, angelic wife,
Who bewitched everyone in my home,
From my men - even to my dogs,
Is the worst traitor of all.

But it seems I have fallen under her spell as well,
With every smile, every ridiculous outfit,
I'm struggling,
And failing.

I want to hate her,
But instead, I'm yearning to hear,
Every silent lie that leaves her irresistible lips.

SIENNA

Only show them what I want them to see,
Never let them in.
That's how I handle things.

I may have agreed to this marriage,
But I'll never be his,
Never let him see beneath my mask.

But with every passing day,
It's getting harder to fulfill my task,
I'm struggling,
And failing.

I am falling in love,
With the man I vowed to betray.
