But his worst falsity? 𝘏𝘦 was a lie...𝘵𝘩𝘦 lie. The world didn't know a 𝑫𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒄𝒐. It knew a man who yearned for the feeling of leather and lace and cherished the smell of grass and dirt. A man who hungered for the overpowering symphony of cheers in his ears. The world knew 𝘩𝘪𝘮, 𝑫𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒄 𝑮𝒓𝒆𝒚. Football is what both sides of him 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘥. What the beating of his heart sought when the sport was just out of reach. But the QB of the college Italian league was not what he was... was it? -༺𑁍༻- 𝑰𝒗𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝑯𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒔 was a target, a gentle soul, in a world full of knives and guns. She lived in uncertainty. Every breath was hesitant, every move was left with a question, "I-Is this r-right?" Never belonging was a part of her.

|STEAMY ROMANCE| 18+ "Oh, how bad I want to corrupt you, ruin you. But you're not ready for that." As much as I want her beneath me, writhing, begging me to stop. There is a time and a place for all that, which now is not the time nor place. A blush forms on her cheeks as she looks away. I put my finger under her chin and gently lift her face. "Look at me, my love. I want to see those beautiful cherry cheeks of yours." I love how responsive she is to me. Seeing her blush and shy away from me is one of my favorite things about her. "Stop, Ansel," she giggled. "You can't just say things like that and expect me to remain unfazed". I find it amusing that she is completely unaware of the power she has over me. God, if we didn't have to leave, I would've shown her what she does to me. "I'm not going to apologize, my love. You make me want to give you the world, yet corrupt that innocent aura you have. Let's go, darling, we are going to be late." I take her hand and guide her to the passenger side of the door, opening it, allowing her to climb into the car. Walking to the drivers' side, I get in making sure she is buckled, before buckling myself. Once I see her buckled, I start the car, putting my hand on her thigh. When Emory Miller attracts Ansel Dubois' attention, things are destined to happen.

Alessia Ferrari is the Don of the Italian Mafia. Whip-smart and dangerous, she is a woman in a man's world, surviving against all odds.

Ace Hernandez is the boss of the American Mafia. He's a cold cruel hearted monster. He knows the game all too well and does whatever it takes to win and if that means breaking someone, he could do that with his eyes closed. Fate is vicious when the two are forced to marry. Will two monsters find solace in each other's arms or will they kill each other? ---------------------------- "I don't recall signing up for strip poker." She replied. Her full lips frowned softly but her eyes were filled with amusement. She knew she couldn't beat me, not at this game. "Are you quitting? Are you a quitter?" I mocked getting under her skin. Her lips twitched before she pursed them tightly. The blues of her eyes deepened and she threw me a dangerous smirk. She shuffled and pulled off one of her sandals. Fuck. So we're doing this the long way. She raised it in the air, dangling it off her finger before tossing it aside. She raised a brow at me, she challenged me. I knew I got under her skin. Just as I had anticipated. -------------------------- BE AWARE: Trigger warnings: MATURE CONTENT 18+ (SMUT) SWEARING VIOLENCE/GUN VIOLENCE SELF HARM/SUICIDE (REFERENCES) EXPLICIT LANGUAGE REFERENCES TO RAPE SMOKING/ALCOHOL/DRUGS BLOOD/DEATH/GORE ©️ All rights reserved ™️ The Walnut Tree BOOK ONE OF THE MAFIA SERIES

❝P-please,❞ He whimpered, holding my hand over his erection. It was perfectly hard and ready for me, straining against his boxers in the most delicious way. "What is it that you want me to do, baby?" "Touch me," He moaned and drew his head back when I ran my tongue over his clothed cock, sucking his hardness gently. "You make me feel so good...𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦...I want more." His mother always told him that greed was a sin, and his father said girls were the devils confidants.
