Blade's eyes turned cold. Like a dark colored ocean that just froze. He took a frightening step forward so now his face was only inches from my face, even with his height, making my breath hitch in my throat. I could no longer breath. No longer see people repeatedly walking past my house. No longer hear those birds in the tree that were begging me to run. I could only see his dark blue eyes that held so much danger and anger. I could only hear his rapid breathing and even his fast heartbeat. I was just that dazed into his stare.... more like glare. "Is there someone else?" he said so low no one could hear but me. And I heard him. So clearly. I heard the threat telling me to say yes for he can make whoever the competition is disappear. I heard the anger he held behind his low tone. I heard the jealousy beyond anything. That was what clouded over everything. "N-no," I stuttered. I'm angry to admit I was scared. How he towered over me didn't make it any better. Standing proudly at maybe a 6'4 or 6'5. While I stood at a 5'5. He scanned my face trying to look for any sign of me lying. And when he backed up I knew he couldn't find one because what I said was indeed true. To be honest there was only him. And it seems like that is what it will always be. The all famous gang leader and tough girl, cross paths. He hates disrespect and that's what she's all about. How do you think this will all play out in the end?

"Love and hate are strong words, yet they cause so much pain." -Unknown Grace Collins is many things: Sweet, caring, always thinking about others. But, she is also headstrong, tough, and a badass. She lives a normal middle class life working as a nurse at New York General Hospital. She has the most normal life anyone could have. Well...at least she did. Alessio Romano. He is 26 years old and leader of the Sicilian Mafia. He is the complete opposite of Grace; he is rude, arrogant, selfish. He never says please or thank you, he never apologizes, he expects everything to be done to his liking, and above all he kills with no remorse. "Maybe some people are just shaped to be how they want to be. Or maybe, someone can help shape them to how they should be." -Lilith Paige ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Or what? What will you do, Mr. Romano? Just because I work with you doesn't mean you can control my whole life," I state. "I can make my own decisions." "What if I won't let you?" He replies taking a step closer to me. "What if I said that I didn't want you to go out with other men? Hmm?" He raises his eyebrow, and I back up to where my back is touching a wall. "What if you were only mine?" I stare up into his deep, cold blue eyes. I wouldn't break, I wouldn't be swayed by this arrogant asshole, I wouldn't be taken down again. "Well," I finally say, "then I would tell you..." I stand on my tippy toes and reach his ear, "to go to hell." I stand back down onto my feet as I walk out his door with my head held high. #1 in Mafia 1/12/22!!! #1 in Powerful 4/24/22! #2 in Marriage 1/9/24 #4 in Don 3/27/23 #1 in Runaway 7/19/22! #1 in Humor 10/29/21! #1 in Badass 3/30/22! #13 in Love 10/30/21 #1 in Billionaire 12/21/22! #2 in Arrogant 1/9/24 #8 in Possessive 1/13/23
