𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐚 I downed a shot of tequila, allowing the burning liquid to slide down my throat and settle in my stomach. I deserved to have some fun without boundaries. I poured a second glass and it disappeared as quickly as the first. Then came the third, fourth and fifth. Still I wasn't satisfied. My landlady was a bitch, I was fired and my boyfriend cheated on me. My nerves were shot to hell! My eyes lazily scanned the nightclub as I consecutively downed my sixth shot for the evening. Life's a bitch. 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐨 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐫𝐨 I sat in the VIP section of the club, a glass of vodka in my hand as I watched the woman several yards away drowning herself in tequila. My lips curled in amusement. The red dress she wore showed a generous amount of cleavage, her ass was ripe and full, begging to be groped. She looked to be eighteen. I wondered what a pretty thing like her was doing in a place like this, drinking like there was no tomorrow. Not that it was any of my business. Women came, got laid and wasted in this nightclub every night. Nothing special to see here. "Muori figlio di puttana." I pulled the trigger on my gun and shot the Mexican in the head after he was caught stealing coke from my warehouse. Blood splattered everywhere, staining the walls and my designer suit. I tucked my gun back in my pocket and left the ally. "He killed a guy!" I shrieked as I turned to run away from there as fast as possible. Just as I was about to run back inside, a large hand clamped around my neck and I was pressed up against a rock solid chest. My jaw was caressed by - a gun!? "Going somewhere piccola?" a deep voice whispered in my ear. "Let me go, you sick twisted bastard!" I growled. "Feisty and a foul mouth. I like it," he chuckled. "You killed someone! I'm calling the cops!" I shouted. "Princess I own the cops," he said stroking my face. "and now I own you. Say goodbye to your old lif

"You are mine!" He roars. "I will do whatever it takes to make you know that. Whether it means I lock you up in a prison and throw away the key." Footsteps come rushing into the dining room, and I turn to see multiple men--guards I suppose, flanking one another. Each of their hands rest on things within their jackets. Which i can only guess are guns. What else would they be? He waves them off and stalks towards me, standing behind my chair.

Band 2 Bitte zuerst Band 1 lesen - Owned by Darkness, damit ihr alles versteht und nichts verpasst. _______ Ich habe Anastasia genommen ganz für mich, ohne Kompromisse. Mein Verlangen brennt wie Feuer, das alles verbrennt, was uns im Weg steht. Keine Angst, keine Gnade, nur ich und sie gefangen in einem düsteren Tanz aus Lust, Schmerz und Kontrolle. Wer uns trennen will, wird in der Dunkelheit zerbrechen. Ich werde sie besitzen, bis sie nur noch mir gehört.

Band 1 Er war mein Albtraum, mein Wächter mein Verderben. In einem Haus voller Regeln, Schmerz und Schweigen wächst Anastasia auf, abgeschottet von der Welt unter den kalten Augen von Ivan, dem Sohn eines mächtigen Mafiosen . Zwischen Hass und Abhängigkeit, Dominanz und stiller Sehnsucht entspinnt sich ein dunkles Spiel, das keiner von beiden wirklich kontrollieren kann. Klappentext: ich will sie beherrschen. Ich will sie brechen. Ich will, dass sie mich hasst und trotzdem zu mir kommt. Ich will, dass sie fürchtet, was ich mit ihr tun kann - und trotzdem nachts in mein Bett kriecht. Nicht nur ihr Körper. Nicht nur ihr Lächeln. Ich will ihre Seele. Ich will, dass sie nichts anderes mehr kennt als mich. Dass jeder Atemzug, den sie nimmt, meinen Namen trägt. Dass ihr Schmerz, ihr Lust, ihr Leben nur in meinen Händen existiert. Ich hatte keine Gefühle Nur Hunger. Nur Dunkelheit. Nur Anastasia. --- Kurz vorab: Diese Geschichte handelt von Anastasia und Ivan - jedoch noch nicht von ihnen als Paar. Im Mittelpunkt steht ihr Leben und vor allem ihre persönliche Entwicklung. Die Geschichte folgt dabei einem klaren Leitfaden, der erst am Ende vollständig verständlich wird. Diese Entwicklung ist entscheidend für Band 2, denn dort dreht sich fast alles um die beiden. Um ihre Geschichte wirklich zu verstehen, ist es wichtig, Band 1 gelesen zu haben. Wenn ihr euch einen „tollen Mann" erhofft - nein. Ivan ist brutal. Das solltet ihr wissen. #1 - Horror. 21.05.2025

"Ich schwöre bei Gott, ich will dieses verdammt unschuldige Funkeln aus deinen Augen ficken, bis dein lieber Papá dich nicht mehr erkennt." - Alle Augen lagen auf ihr. In jener Nacht verdrehte sie jedem Mann im Saal den Kopf. Ganz egal, ob sie Freundinnen, Verlobte oder Frauen hatten - sie starrten. Weder kannte irgendwer ihren Namen, noch wusste man, von welcher Mafia sie stammte. Alle nannten sie nur Lady Black Dress. Sie war Lorena Estela Díaz, die Tochter des Mafia-Bosses schlechthin. Seine Tochter war sein Ein und Alles. Kein Mann wagte es, sich der jungen Mafia-Prinzessin anzunähern. Keiner bis auf Einen. Miguel Angel Santos hielt sogar um ihre Hand an. ERSTER TEIL DER LADY-REIHE
