Or did they unleash a storm that no one can control? Dive into a tangled web of betrayal, vengeance, and passionate secrets as loyalty is tested, hearts are shattered, and destinies collide in this gripping new chapter of the Eros' Obsession saga. 🔞🔞 A sneak glimpse into the book 📖 She'd read about it before. Coma patients, still aware of voices and conversations but trapped, unable to speak or move. She leaned closer to the unconscious man and whispered coldly. "If you can hear me... go ahead and die. I don't care anymore. I'm done. I'm happy now. With Stanley." Inside the locked prison of Eros's mind, rage exploded like wildfire. How dare you? his mind roared. You're my woman, Chika. Mine. You bring another man into my room? You laugh with him in my space? You mock me while I'm powerless? The words in his mind spiraled into a frenzy. He heard her laughter. Stanley's voice. It cut through his chest like glass. You belong to me, his soul growled. I will kill him. I will kill you. No one will take you from me. In the unconscious depths, he began to fight. His mind clawed against the walls of his coma, pushing, thrashing, desperate to break free. His breathing grew shallow. His muscles twitched under the sheets. The pain of jealousy, like needles in his heart, gave him the strength to rise. I have to wake up. I will wake up. I will make her pay.

"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOK

The darkness in his eyes, the dangerous smell of alcohol in his breath, and his deathly grip keeping me bound to him made my heart pound in my chest and my body quiver beneath him. Shamefully, it wasn't anything that I wasn't used to, because...the things I let him do to me? When he was frustrated, annoyed, and angry at the world, I was here to be his pound of flesh. In return, he masked the void of my loneliness because for months, that was the transaction of our relationship. He'd pin me to the wall, bend me over the counter, pull my hair, slap me, choke me, and I enjoyed every second of it because in that moment, it finally felt good to be powerless. Irony is a funny thing. I enjoyed being in pain because it made me forget how much I was hurting. *** "I warned you, doll." His voice strikes a string of chills down the base of my spine, a reminder that all of the time in the world could pass, and he's still not letting go. This is where the good girl in me dies. "You're mine now," he whispers. *** My name is Mercy-Mercy Carter. I went to college. Got myself a useless Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree. His name is Marcel-Marcello Saldívar. However, at the time, I didn't know that he, the heir to the Saldívar Mafia empire, was the man that I had blindly offered myself to. As smart as I am, I was stupid all the times when it actually mattered. After all, he did warn me that he was dangerous. I just didn't think he could be much worse than my thug of a brother. I was vulnerable-naive. My name is Mercy, and I belong to him. My name is Mercy, and I am The Mafia's Mercy. ⚠️ Content Advisory: This is a DARK Romance novel, in every sense of the word.
