He Ordered My Death in My Mother's Tongue

di Nora King (Autore)

Nora King, 2026

He plotted her murder in a language he thought she couldn't understand. He didn't know she wrote the rules of the empire. Standing just feet away from her fiancé, Matteo Moretti, an ordinary American woman appears entirely out of her depth. But while Matteo and his men converse casually in Griko—a dying, rare dialect they assume no outsider alive can interpret—every single word lands with crystal clarity. In his mother's tongue, Matteo tells his mistress that his fiancée is nothing more than an empty box to carry his heir, destined to be quietly buried the moment she serves her purpose. He calls her a flower meant to be cut down before she can ever fully bloom. Matteo believes he is safe behind his linguistic walls. He is entirely wrong. The woman he mocks as a simple, naive American is actually the last living heir of the De Santis bloodline—the ancient, powerful dynasty whose stolen ground forms the foundation of Matteo's multi-billion-dollar enterprise. She didn't stumble into his world by accident. She walked into it with a purpose. Now, the man who ordered her execution in secret is about to discover that the wife he thought he could discard is the architect of his total ruin, and the ghost empire he tried to steal is finally coming home.
