Dominick Lucia walked away from the organization he built. But power doesn't let go that easily. He no longer sits at the Capo Council table. The empire now belongs to Bobby Merlino, a protégé who learned discipline over fear and swore Dominick's name would never be tied to MOBIA business again. But between a warehouse deal gone sideways, a parking-lot ambush, a legal-tech startup making enemies of America's biggest law firms, and a home he builds for women with nowhere else to go, quiet retirement keeps slipping out of reach. Meanwhile, the family he actually chose — Patty, his kids, a life measured in something other than numbers — keeps pulling him back from the man he used to be. Somewhere inside him, Dark Dom is still waiting. A story about legacy, redemption, and the difference between building an empire and building a life.
