𝐈𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟. ✞ ✞ ✞ He wanted to use her. She was the mastermind who planned for that all along. ✞ ✞ ✞ Power. Power built them. Power is what will destroy them. From sworn enemies to reluctant allies, there is nothing 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐚 𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐯 wouldn't do, nobody she wouldn't use to reach what her mind has been fixated on for years. Revenge. She's inhumane. Emotionless. Messed up in the head-a diagnosed ASPD mind turned into something precise, something dangerous. A machine. The underworld doesn't call her by name. They call her the flame behind the ghost don. The living requiem. Nyx. And when something like her sets her sights on a target? She takes. Uses. Burns everything necessary to get what she wants. And 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐨 became exactly that. There's nothing the Camorra king hates more than her-the ghost, the flame, the thorn in his side he's been chasing for years. The assassin behind the Russian don he wants nothing more than to take down. The one thing standing between him and full control over New York City. Blaze is forced to do the one thing he would rather die than do: Ally with the enemy. It was supposed to be simple. Temporary. Strategic. But temptation has always been a dangerous game, and Vera has never been the kind to walk away from a game. Especially one she knows she'll win. Because she's always ten steps ahead. And this time, she chose to play.

Xavier Petrov I came here for my younger brother, Louis, so he can live out his dreams and know I'm always behind him to protect him. We had to transfer universities from California because someone figured out who we were, that there were Petrovs in California and now here we are. In some small town in Vermont and in it, the past two years here have been good. Silent. This is my last year of this academic bullshit before I can finally go back to Italy, begin working alongside Alessio and fight for the three mafia alliance. I expected the months to go by fast. I planned to stay completely focused on my own world, boxing at an underground ring to bring money in and keep my friend's gym afloat. But what I didn't fucking expect was her. And god, she runs so pretty, like her name. A river flowing and running a continuous stream...Until you throw a rock in and fuck up the entire stream. Im coming for you River and there is nowhere you can run where I won't find you... River Hayes I've lived in this fucked up town my entire life. I'm barely surviving to get through my last year of this absolute hell. Every single day is a battle to keep my head above water, living under a roof where peace doesn't exist. My dad is an alcoholic with heavy fists and a temper that goes off like a landmine and my mother is a broken woman who was driven to drugs after seeing how miserably her life had failed her. I can't end up like them. I won't let myself. That's why I do what I do. That's why I've spent the last three years of my life selling my body at a gentlemen's club in town, a place where only the elite travel to such a little town to watch strippers dance and throw money at them. It's humiliating. No one from school even knows what I do and still I feel disgusting, I feel worthless, like nothing of mine is even mine anymore. But I'll keep doing it because I have no other choice, I need to get out of here and this degree is my one way ticket out. Or at least, thats what i thought...

Kiara Hendrix walked away from the only man she ever loved because loving him meant losing herself. When Yurii Bolosh became Pakhan of the Fedorov Bratva, the man she loved disappeared behind silence, blood, and an obsession that consumed him: uncovering the truth behind his familys' deaths. The higher he rose, the further he slipped from her grasp. He stopped choosing her. Stopped letting her in. So she chose herself. She walked away before his hunt for justice buried them both. But Yurii never stopped searching, not for answers, and most especially not for her. Now, pulled back into the same orbit by loyalty, the marriage of their bestfriends, and unfinished love, Kiara finds herself face to face with the man she left behind. He's more powerful. More dangerous. And still undone by her presence. She knows she should stay away. Because Yurii Bolosh does not love in halves. He never has. What he gives, he gives with teeth, with blood in his mouth and devotion. And that terrifies her. He tells her he will respect her distance. That he understands why she left. That he will not touch, will not ask, will not beg. But restraint has never been his strength. And as the past claws its way to the surface and vengeance inches closer to becoming reality, Kiara must decide what frightens her more: Walking away from the man who still knows her heart like the back of his hand. Or staying long enough to find out whether she was the one meant to save him from himself or if she was always destined to be the thing he would lose last.

Never forget what runs through a Nystrom's veins. Unfortunately no one ever warned them what would happen if one fell in love with the other. 𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎-𝐍𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐌 wears indifference so convincingly that no one notices she's been falling apart for years. She keeps everyone at arm's length, convinced that love only ends in loss and that the safest place for the people she loves is somewhere far away from her. 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎 T̶H̶O̶R̶N̶B̶R̶I̶D̶G̶E̶ 𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄, the man the underworld calls the Abomination, has built his reputation on brutality. They see the blood, the power, the monster. They don't see the boy still grieving, or the man whose greatest weakness has always been the same girl he's spent a lifetime trying to protect. Even if he's not good enough for her, he'll have her anyway. They're either each other's salvation, or the start to another war. 𓆩♡𓆪 Started: August 2024 Finished: TBA
