"Who do you belong to?" he growls in my ear, his voice sending shivers down my spine. His fingers tease me, skimming across my soaked panties, and every touch leaves me breathless. "You," I moan, my voice trembling. His dark eyes burn into mine, hungry and possessive. "Yes. You are MINE." --- Sebastian Lavadzza. Mysterious. Intense. Dangerous. The right-hand man to the mafia. And the man I can't live without. Or so I thought. Sometimes, the only way to save someone you love is to let them go. Sebastian has been my everything-the man who protected me, guided me, and touched me in ways no one else ever could. He knew me inside and out, every shiver, every secret. But love is complicated, and in my world, it's deadly. Now, I'm engaged to another man. A man who knows how much Sebastian means to me and has twisted that love into a weapon. If the truth about us ever comes out, Sebastian won't just lose me-he'll lose his life. Walking away is the hardest choice I've ever made. But it's for the best, isn't it? Because Sebastian has always said we were just a fling. Just passion. Nothing more. So why won't he let me go? Why is he fighting-for me, for us-when he claims he doesn't love me? In a world where betrayal lurks around every corner, where secrets and lies are currency, can love survive? Or will it destroy us both? --- Warning: Mature Content This story contains steamy, explicit scenes and is intended for readers 18+. If you're looking for passion, heartbreak, and a love worth risking everything for, dive in. But be warned: in this world, nothing is ever simple.

--- *"Kalix Bianchi ruled the underworld with an iron fist-ruthless, cold, and feared by all who dared cross him. Power was his language, cruelty his weapon, and love... well, love was something he had never known until he saw Luciana Romano bright, talkative, fearless, and impossibly alive. Her laughter cut through his darkness, and her spirit refused to bow to his world. He wanted her, and she hated him with every fiber of her being. 'Stay away from me, Kalix,' she would snap, her eyes blazing defiance. And yet, he only smiled, a dangerous curve of his lips. 'You think you can resist me, little flame? Try me.' In a world ruled by secrets, violence, and impossible loyalties, two hearts collided-one hardened by power, the other untamed by life's dangers. Will Luciana's soft, human side survive his dangerous empire, or will Kalix's fire burn them both to ashes?" - "I've ruled empires, crushed men, and yet... you make me feel like a fool." - Kalix Bianchi "You can rule the world, but you'll never rule me." - Luciana Romano

"𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦." Sophia gasped as his hand tightened around her neck, his gun suddenly lowered to her heat, teasing her. The more she fought, the tighter his grip got and the more breathless she grew as he started moving the gun against her, making the knot in her stomach tighten. Storm took the safety off the gun, glaring at her with those piercing arctic eyes of his. "Scream for me, pet." Sophia screamed. ❦ Sophia Morales' life shattered when her family fell victim to a brutal murder, orchestrated by Viktor "Storm" Osipova, a notorious hitman entangled in the dark web of the Russian mafia. Storm's brutality had forever marked the girl's life. Storm took everything from her and, in turn, threw the young girl into an orphanage, only to be tossed from family to family, enduring abuse and neglect. For years, Sophia's insatiable thirst for retribution grew, twisting into something far darker and more sinister than mere revenge. Storm became the object of her obsession as her anger transcended a simple wish for revenge, particularly as she grew up parentless and deprived of affection. But vengeance alone was not what drove the young girl. Her obsession with Storm grew with each passing day she was abused by the very system his actions had inadvertently thrown her into. For several years, she had been stalking him, waiting for the perfect moment to exact her revenge and unveil the enigmatic layers of the man who had torn her world apart, as the line between vengeance and obsession blurred. Sophia was determined to avenge her family-even if it meant taking a life in their name.

"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.

"You want to act reckless? Fine. But don't think for a second you're not being watched. This city is full of men who'd love to carve a message into you just to make a point." "And what message would you carve?" I whispered. He reached out. Brushed the back of his knuckles down my jaw, rough and slow. "Mine." It wasn't sweet. It wasn't romantic. It was a brand. And then he dropped his hand. "You have ten minutes to get out of here before I make a fucking scene." ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ Massimo Bianchi is ruthless, the kind of man who leaves blood in his wake and never looks back. At 29, he's the trusted enforcer for one of the most feared mafia bosses in America - my father, Lorenzo DeLuca, the ghost I never knew but can never escape. I, Francesca DeLuca, have spent my life in the shadows of wealth, too blind to see the truth behind my family's fortune. But when I confront the mysterious man who's been following me, I'm thrown into a world of blood and betrayal, where loyalty is bought and sold like a commodity. Massimo is everything I should fear - cold, dangerous, and bound by an oath to my father. But there's something in the way he looks at me, a dark hunger he refuses to acknowledge. I should hate him, push him away, but the deeper I fall into my family's twisted legacy, the harder it is to resist the pull. But loving a man like Massimo is a risk, and in our world, mistakes are paid for in blood. So the question is - will I be his downfall, or will he be mine?

*** A Steamy Romance *** Ella Montgomery is a fiercely determined law student at Oxford University, juggling her ambitious studies while harboring an undeniable secret crush on Lucien Storm, her father's charismatic best friend. From the moment she first laid eyes on him, Lucien's magnetic presence ignited feelings within her that she desperately tries to suppress. She understands that her future hinges on her education, not on the fantasies of being swept away in his arms. Unbeknownst to Ella, Lucien is equally captivated by her. As the head of a powerful mafia family and a trusted friend of her father, he finds himself torn between his growing desire for the spirited young woman and the weight of his responsibilities. The forbidden nature of their feelings creates a tension neither can ignore, even as they try to maintain a semblance of normalcy. Lucien often finds himself lost in fantasies, imagining the feel of Ella's warm body against his, her nails tracing the intricate tattoos that tell his story, and the way her mouth would taste against him. Each thought is both intoxicating and torturous, as he grapples with the consequences of pursuing a romance that could shatter the bonds of friendship and loyalty. As they both navigate their intense emotions, they face the daunting question: Can love flourish in the shadows of secrecy and loyalty, or will their desires lead to heartbreak and chaos? Their journey will test the limits of their hearts, challenging everything they thought they knew about love, power, and the sacrifices they're willing to make for a chance at happiness. In a world where danger lurks at every corner, Ella and Lucien must decide if they are brave enough to confront their feelings, or if the pain of unrequited love will ultimately consume them both.
