Mia stood in front of Allure nightclub, hot in the humid night air. She was dressed in a tight red mini-dress, with sky-high heels. The FBI makeup team had done a great job with her hair and makeup—she hardly recognised herself.
On the outside, she looked a million bucks. But on the inside, she was freaking out. How was she going to pull this off? She’d wanted to be an FBI agent since she was 14 and she’d finally become an agent at age 24, top of her class. But she was the newest agent in the division, only just passed her exams. She had no field experience, no idea how to run an undercover operation.
She’d thrown herself in the deep end, and there were sharks everywhere!
The Rossi’s weren’t just a Mafia family—they were THE Mafia family.
Mia had studied their file. There were over 40 unsolved murders that the FBI thought were carried out by the Rossi’s, but they couldn’t prove any of them. That was a lot of people who never went home, with no explanation.
And now she was about to swim right into the shark tank.
Mia felt someone grab her arm. It was Bethany, the informant. She was a bit older, around 30. She was tall and beautiful and very confident.
“You ready?” She asked.
Mia nodded.
“You remember everything?” She asked.
“Yes,” Mia said.“We met in the Hamptons, we’ve been hanging out and partying. You’ve met my family and I’m all above board.”
It stung Mia to talk about her family, even if it was her fake undercover family. Bethany didn’t know about her real parents. Tears welled up in Mia’s eyes as she thought about them.
“Jesus, why do you look so sad? We’re meant to be party girls.”
Mia shook the thoughts of her parents out of her head. She plastered on a smile.
“Let’s do this.

Inside, Allure was absolutely pumping. It was packed full of what seemed to be every beautiful person in New York.
The music was loud, a thumping dance music. Women in silver bikinis danced in cages high above the dance floor, which looked like a sea of sweaty bodies.
Mia felt instantly out of place. How was she going to pull this off?
Bethany led her to the back of the club, where a velvet rope separated the main club from the VIP section. A security guard looked them up and down as they approached.
Bethany smiled at him, and he opened the rope and let her in.
But he put up a hand to stop Mia.
“I don’t know you,” he said.
“Ummm..” Mia stumbled.
“She’s with me,” Bethany said.
The security guard didn’t look happy, but he let her in.
The VIP section seemed quieter and more intimate than the main club. It was only for the chosen ones, the extra special and beautiful.
And holding court in the middle, seated on red velvet lounge chairs, were the kings—Lorenzo and Alessandro.
Mia swallowed.
They were even more gorgeous than in their photos.
