Married to the Mafia

Gabriela's life is a constant tightrope walk between the normal existence she craves and the inescapable shadow of her family's notorious drug cartel. When an unexpected visit from her estranged brother shatters her fragile peace, Gabby is pulled back into the dangerous world she fought so hard to leave behind. Now, with a looming cartel war threatening to engulf Mexico, she must confront her past, navigate treacherous alliances, and decide where her loyalties truly lie.

The thumping bass from the club still vibrated in my ears, a phantom rhythm to Nessa's off-key singing. "You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub!" she belted, dancing her way into our apartment, Sofi grumbling behind her, already kicking off her heels.

I collapsed onto the worn couch, the day's exhaustion finally catching up. It was the familiar, comforting chaos of our shared life, a stark contrast to the unsettling news that had gripped me earlier. The TV, a dull hum in the background, spoke of Tamulipas, of drug lords and cartels, and a name that always sent a chill down my spine: Romano. My family.

Sofi squeezed my shoulder, her silent concern a heavy weight. Nessa, ever blunt, whispered, "It's okay to be upset, Gabby. It's your family they're talking about, after all." Family. The word tasted like ash in my mouth.
