"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.

A love story

Leader of the biggest mafia in New York City, The Hellbound Hounds, had his already chaotic life thrown upside down when a year ago a member died giving birth to his child. A high-end nanny from a wealthy family has seen her share of illicit activities during her career, but never thought she would get recruited by New York's biggest gang leader. COMPLETE!!!

She feared him more than anything-until he became the only place she felt safe. After escaping years of abuse, Lina found a fragile kind of peace scrubbing floors in a mercenary's mansion. Quiet, invisible, and broken, she kept her head down and her voice lower. Especially around him. Killian. He kills for a living. He is a powerful, cold-blooded mercenary, a wealthy man who built his empire off blood, fear. He owns a powerful private military company that operates in the shadows, answering only to the highest bidders. He commands killers, closes deals, and never makes mistakes. Until her. A glance. A flinch. A wound she tried to hide. And suddenly, he was watching her closely. Quietly. Like she was a puzzle he didn't mean to touch... but couldn't stop obsessing over. Killian: "You blush like that again, and I swear I'll pin you against this wall just to see how deep it goes." He didn't know how to be soft. She didn't know how to be wanted. But in a house full of violence, he saw her. And he started to change. And soon, she was everywhere in his mind.

It's just like Alice in Wonderland but as the freaky version.

Some loves are worth fighting for... even when hearts have already broken. ────୨ৎ──── Valerie: I save lives every day-yet I can't save my marriage. Somewhere between late-night surgeries and the years that slipped by, Elias and I lost each other. The boy who once knew every version of me now feels like a stranger I sleep beside. Unseen. Unheard. Unloved. So I do the hardest thing I've ever done: I ask for a divorce. Not because I don't care... but because staying is slowly breaking me. And walking away feels like the only way to find myself again. Elias: Valerie wants a divorce. The woman I've loved since I was sixteen... the woman who is my home... is ready to walk away. I don't blame her. I've been distant, buried in work, blind to how much she's been hurting. But losing her? That's not an option. So I'll fight for her. For us. For every moment we let slip through our fingers. Because our story isn't over-not if I have anything to say about it.
