"Oh sweet little kitten, don't cry. Let me wipe away those tears from your beautiful eyes. Tell me what's made you sad. I shall kill whoever it is who've hurt you Kitten". I hated his little pet name for me, but then why did my heart skip a beat every time I heard it. Why did my body react and want to be claimed every time he whispered it so softly. He knew full well the effect he had on me and I hated the fact that I had no control over it. Lily thought she had it all. A loving family, a good job and an adoring husband. But she couldn't be further from the truth. What Lily isn't aware of is the past her parents left behind. Her father, James Richardson the notorious ex mafia boss and his wife by force Isabella Richardson. She has no idea of the lies her parents are hiding from her. But soon enough, the truth always comes out. "You tried to run from your past. Foolish of you for thinking everything would fall back into place. But never mind, because it won't be you suffering the consequences".

"You're sick," she spat out at him, her face scrunching up, disgusted by his actions. How could someone be so cruel? He chuckled darkly, slowly striding towards her, his half empty glass of whiskey dangling loosely in his grip. He placed it softly behind her on the mantelpiece, his hands now placed either side of her head, trapping her. Her face was void of emotion, but her sharp intakes of breath revealed how she truly felt. His presence affected her, and their close proximity seemed to do something to his heart. He brought his hand up to her glossy black hair, tucking it behind her ear like he always liked it, "I'm not sick, I'm twisted. You make it sound like there's a cure." ~ Due to horrid circumstances, Alexia Clarke is left with no other choice but to join the American Italian mafia in hopes it will remove her from the grid forever, after killing the first man she had ever loved. Vincent Gambino, the ultimate leader of the five families within the mafia, was unhinged, deranged and all types of fucking crazy. With a newcomer in town, he had his eyes focused on the one and only Alexia, who was now the centre of his attention. If only she knew that that was the most dangerous place to be.
