To the world Jadalyn Blackwood is her father's crown jewel...A flawless ballerina spinning under the bright stage lights, trapped in a perfect glass box. But Jadalyn knows the truth.

A pretty prop used to maintain the family's public image. Then comes Alessio Petrov. To the public eye Alessio is a reckless chaotic playboy who couldn't care less about the underworld hierarchy. He was supposed to be the Bratva's second-in-command, a position he treated like a joke. But in a bloodbath that shocked the criminal underworld, the bratva had dismantled the Italian mafia from the inside out, stepping over the bodies of his enemies and he had claimed the title as Don for himself. Alessio didn't crash into Jadalyn's life by accident. He knows the rot hidden beneath her father's empire and he intends to use the lonely ballerina as the ultimate weapon of ruin. His plan is simple: snatch her away from her family, use her to get close to the blackwoods tear them apart from inside to out. But as he pulls Jadalyn into his dark orbit, the act begins to slip. --- "You should've never let me get this close Jadalyn, because now that I've tasted your light i'm never going back to the dark."

What should've been just one night of surrendering to my desires turned into an endless stream of obsession. A deadly obsession. A sickening, mind-numbing obsession. She coursed through my veins, spreading rapidly like venom. She was my very own poison. She was my savior and my downfall. She was everything that I've ever dreamed of, everything I've ever wanted. Her taste lingered on my tongue, her scent haunted me every day, and her siren eyes were imprinted into my memory forever. She shouldn't have left me, she shouldn't have created this insatiable craving that couldn't be relinquished. Despite her attempt at trying to run from me, there wasn't a corner of this Earth that she could hide in because I'd always find her. Wherever she went, I'd be right behind her. Chasing her. Hunting her. Yearning for her. Becoming infatuated with the seductress wasn't on my agenda. I didn't plan on being sucked into her world but here I was, on my knees for a woman who pushed me away every chance she got. I burned for her and I'd burn the world for her. She controlled my heart, mind, body, and soul. And the worst part was, I wouldn't have it any other way.

IN WHICH, a girl who exudes sunshine meets a man willing to give her the world. ⎯⎯⎯⎯ ❝Stop following me, I told you I'm fine, go focus on the other patients.❞ ❝Sweetheart I don't doubt that, I'm just here for when you need me.❞ ❝You are so lucky I don't have a scalpel right now or so help me God⎯❞ ⎯⎯⎯⎯ [JACK ABBOTT x FEM!OC] [SEASON ONE⎯TWO + MY OWN PLOT] © 2025 softlysqturn-

𝐆𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐀 𝐀𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐈 was the kind of girl people talked about before she even walked into the room. Too loud. Too reckless. Always somewhere she shouldn't be, dressed in silk and bad decisions, chasing the next thrill like she had something to outrun. As the daughter of one of the most powerful mafia families, she grew up around blood and power, but Gianna never let it tame her. If anything, it made her worse. 𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐀𝐒 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐍𝐄 was the opposite. Cold, controlled, impossible to read. A man people feared before they ever met him. He built his empire with loyalty, violence, and the kind of patience that made him dangerous. Nothing touched him. Nothing got close enough to. Then their families forced a marriage neither of them wanted. Now Gianna is stuck inside a world built on rules she refuses to follow, living with a man who watches everything and forgives nothing. And Nicholas is left dealing with the one person capable of getting under his skin without even trying. She's chaos. He's control. And neither one plans on giving in first. But the thing about cages is - eventually, something inside them starts clawing its way out.

Ever since she's been a child, Leila Rossetti's sole ambition has been to seize control of The Cosa Nostra and avenge the childhood she lost by the claws her father, The Don. When she inadvertently declares war on the Russians, who have long held a vice grip on the underground, her plans go right in the trash giving way to a far more dangerous threat. Yet the overconfidence of the Italian assassin is nothing more than a source of amusement to Nikolai Romanov, king of The Bratva. Known for his ruthlessness and absolute control over Russia, he views Leila's reckless move as merely an entertaining spectacle, like a predator who only toys with its prey before devouring it. So what happens when The Pakhan finally decides to strike his prey? ________________________ His thumb traced the sensitive skin of my wrist, a slow rhythm that felt like he was counting my heartbeats. Then he leaned in, his lips hovering near my ear, not touching, yet the heat was enough to sear. "You're so beautiful. Even when you lie to me." I rolled my eyes, tilting my head back against his shoulder just to show him I wasn't afraid of the proximity, even while my skin screamed at the contact. "And you're still an arrogant bastard who thinks he can keep a throne just by sitting on it." "I don't just sit on it, milaya. I bleed for it. And occasionally, I make sure others bleed a little more." The vibration of his throaty chuckle sent shivers down my spine. "Now, tell me another lie. I want to see if you can make your heart rate match your tongue."

Four years ago, Juliette Bennett walked away from Mason Brooks, the golden boy of college hockey and the only person she ever truly let in, and never looked back. She rebuilt her life in silence, burying heartbreak under long nights, hospital shifts, and the one secret she swore would never see the light again: her daughter, Maisey. Mason Brooks has spent years becoming everything he was supposed to be, star forward, team leader, the future of professional hockey, without knowing the biggest piece of his life was already missing. When fate drags Juliette back into his world, the past doesn't stay buried for long. Old sparks don't just flicker, they ignite. And the truth doesn't just hurt... it changes everything. Now there's a four-year-old girl with Mason's eyes, a love that never really died, and a history built on a misunderstanding neither of them knew they were living in. Juliette wants to protect the life she fought so hard to build. Mason refuses to walk away from the one thing he never knew he had. And when a daughter becomes the center of everything between them, one question remains- Do you forgive the past... or does it destroy the future you never got to live?

Andy couldn't stay in DC anymore, not when everywhere she looked she saw him. Neither could she stay in that ER, not when all of her colleagues had seen her have a mental break down. So now she was in Pittsburgh, beginning her life again. Andy had a plan to build a better, more stable and healthy life, only that plan was very quickly hijacked by a closed off veteran with a dry sense of humour and an obsession for his work.

Elena Reyes is the kind of nurse who holds everything together-steady hands, sharp instincts, and a strength she doesn't always show. Dr. Jack Abbot is the one people rely on when things fall apart-calm under pressure, controlled, and used to keeping his distance. They were never supposed to be more than colleagues. But one night changes everything.

After her father's death, Dr Iris Adler returns to Pittsburgh with a medical career moving faster than it should and a house that feels too quiet to live in. In the ER, she's steady, sharp, impossible to rattle - seeing what others miss without ever asking to be noticed. Dr. Jack Abbott notices anyway. What begins as respect turns into something harder to ignore and even harder to keep. But Iris has never trusted anything that feels permanent, and Jack knows better than most how quickly things can be taken away. Some houses are inherited. Some are built. Iris isn't sure she knows the difference yet.
