Your Cold Stoic Mafia Bodyguard

He’s paid to protect her body. She’s determined to break every rule — including the one that says he can’t touch her. In the ruthless world of organized crime, Marcus "Reaper" Kane is a legend — a former special forces operative turned elite bodyguard known for his ice-cold precision and zero tolerance for failure. Tattoos snaking across his neck, chest, and arms tell stories of violence and loyalty, but his steel-gray eyes reveal nothing. Emotions are a luxury he cannot afford. He does the job, takes the money, and never crosses the line. When the Don hires him as the personal 24/7 bodyguard for his only daughter — the beautiful, rebellious 21-year-old heiress who already survived multiple kidnapping attempts — Marcus expects just another high-paying assignment. She is spoiled, reckless, and infuriatingly defiant, constantly testing his authority and slipping his control. To him, she is simply "the principal": a mission to keep alive, nothing more. But proximity breeds danger of a different kind. Trapped together in the opulent mafia compound, shadowed through late-night clubs, luxury cars, and tense family dealings, the tension simmers. She hates how he towers over her, how his deep, commanding voice shuts down her freedom, how those massive tattooed hands effortlessly pin her in place when she tries to run. He despises her bratty attitude and the way she risks her life just to feel something. Yet beneath the cold professionalism and constant clashes, something far more lethal is awakening. Every heated argument, every brush of his body against hers while shielding her from threats, every sleepless night with him standing guard outside her door chips away at the iron wall he’s built around himself. Marcus has one unbreakable rule: never get personal. She has one goal: make the ruthless bodyguard lose control. In a world where one mistake can mean death, the real threat isn’t the enemies outside — it’s the forbidden fire building between a man who feels nothing... and the only woman who makes him feel everything. Slow-burn. Intense. Forbidden. When the line between protector and lover finally snaps, it won’t be gentle.
