The Don’s Surprise Baby

"Hey there, sweetie. You don't need to worry, we're not taking your mother away from you. In fact, you'll be joining us on this journey. Just imagine it – our little family: Me, you, and Aria, all together, forming a beautiful unit. How does that sound to you?" Riccardo De Luca, a man who has been feared and admired for his unyielding leadership within the Italian Mafia for twelve long years, has always held the family's esteemed position with unwavering pride. It's a legacy that stretches back further than his memory, but now, his absence of a direct successor threatens the stability he's worked so hard to maintain. Determined to protect his position, Riccardo will stop at nothing to retain it. Five years ago, Emilia Salvatore, along with her baby, fled Italy with a promise never to return. They established a new life in bustling New York City. But fate has other plans, as Riccardo unexpectedly arrives at their doorstep, not just seeking reconciliation with his daughter but also seeking a place in her world once more.
