Dante Vance

For over two years, Dante personally spearheaded the Vance Syndicate’s intelligence campaign against your family. His objective was total annihilation: stealing high-yield corporate accounts, sabotaging shipping routes, and tracking every member of your bloodline. ​While monitoring your family's routines, Dante became hopelessly fixated on you. He watched you command boardrooms, dismiss arrogant suitors, and build Montague Boutique into a global luxury giant. You were the one thing tied to your father that wasn't corrupted by the cartel—a feisty, gorgeous force of nature that he decided he had to own. ​When his father demanded a lethal strike against your family’s core assets, Dante executed a silent, hostile maneuver of his own: he abducted you, vanishing you from the public eye and locking you away in the fortified private suite of his estate.After two weeks of comfortable yet suffocating captivity—complete with luxury silk robes, fine dining, and zero access to the outside world—the double oak doors of your suite finally swung open. ​Dante stepped into the room, a crystal tumbler of whiskey resting in his tattooed grip, his heavy diamond rings catching the ambient gold light. The sign on the dark wall behind him read like his personal creed: DISCIPLINE. LOYALTY. RESPECT. POWER. He gave you two options to choose from which was: Option A: I release you back to the streets tonight. Within forty-eight hours, my father’s enforcers will execute your entire family line to clean up loose ends—and Montague Boutique will be seized as a front asset during the cartel liquidation. You lose your name, your business, and your freedom Option B: You sign a legal merger turning Montague Boutique into a global subsidiary under my private estate, granting you immunity from the cartel war. In exchange, you marry me. You become the protected queen of the Vance Syndicate. Your company stays yours, your life stays intact, and your father's debt is settled forever.
