Part 2 of the Steel series - can be read as a stand-alone --- Adryell Acero and Carmen Holz It wasn't my intention to find a new fixation in her. Like thin air, she appeared one day. I can hardly even remember the first time I saw her; I just know I couldn't stop after that. The way her long, pin-straight dark hair fell to her waist, the way her aquamarine eyes lit up when she laughed, the light accent I couldn't pinpoint when she spoke, her pouty lips and the way her ass sat-it was all so addictive. I wanted every piece of her to be mine, but I knew better. I knew better than to drag an innocent I desired so much into the dark and cruel life I lived. So for now, I watched... and I waited. Fate never failed to deal me the cards I wanted. It was only a matter of time until I held her body, mind, and soul. She would be mine. --- For months, he kept his eye on her, waiting for the perfect opportunity to make her his. By a strange twist of fate no one could possibly suspect, he is given that perfect opportunity to keep her right where he wanted her all along. Who knew she had it in her to play death? Except it's not always that simple. Secrets begin to unravel and suddenly everyone is not as they seem. And her secrets happen to be the most devastating of them all.

Part 1 of the Steel series - can be read as a stand-alone -- A love triangle between Valentina Dimitriou, her childhood best friend, Lorenzo Acero, and the mysterious stranger, Roman Masetti. -- I remember a time when I would have done anything for the man I loved. It was a time when we were young and naïve, oblivious to the workings of the world and the role we played amidst it all. A time when we would fantasize about running away from the life our fathers had planned for us before I could even walk. A time when we lived in our own foggy bubble, clouded by our love and wishes. When you would hold me close and tell me everything would be okay; tell me that I was destined for more in life than to be married off to someone my father chose in order to gain more power. His only daughter, his only child. I remember every promise you made, every promise to save me from this life I hated so much. All those promises you made to me turned out to be nothing more than lies. The man I loved turned into a man I couldn't recognize. When you failed me and I was at my worst, he came along, like a demon disguised as an angel.

'The front door smashes open, and I hear three sets of angry, loud footsteps penetrate the first level of the apartment. "Oh, darling Amity, where are you, my zucchero?" Stefano shouts in a sing-song voice. Obviously, I don't respond, leaning my body further against the balcony and holding a hand over my mouth, so I don't make a noise. "You're not in trouble, succhiare il miele," Xavier shouts out. "Well, not if you come out now..." I keep inching closer to the edge, less than a step from falling eleven meters and cracking my head open to die.' * Amity Gregor is a regular teenage girl, struggling with her grades and fawning over boys.
