Title: who's your daddy ? (Alt Title: My Stepdad is a Mafia Boss!?) --- Tagline: "He was supposed to be my protector, not the man I dream about in the dark." --- Summary: Eighteen-year-old Elliot Hayes always kept to himself-quiet, obedient, and invisible. After his mother's divorce from her mysterious, terrifying husband years ago, Elliot barely even remembered the man... until the night he was shot walking home from his part-time job. He wakes up, bleeding and confused, in a lavish mansion guarded like a fortress. And sitting beside him-dressed in all black, tattooed, sharp-jawed and cold-eyed-is none other than Viktor Moretti, his 34-year-old estranged stepfather... and one of Europe's most feared mafia bosses. Elliot's world turns upside down when he realizes he's not just being protected-he's being kept. With his mother out of the picture, and his enemies unknown, Viktor declares Elliot will stay under his roof until it's safe. But Viktor isn't the cold-blooded monster Elliot imagined. He's powerful, yes. Dangerous, always. But also quietly attentive. Overprotective. And behind those cruel eyes lies a longing neither of them dares to name. As the walls close in and the bullets start flying, Elliot finds himself drawn to the one man he shouldn't want-and Viktor? He's beginning to wonder if protecting Elliot was ever just about keeping him safe... or something much deeper.

But one day, everything changes. When a dangerous man with cold eyes and bloodstained hands comes to collect his father's debt, Etienne is taken away, locked inside a beautiful but terrifying mansion. A place where he's no longer a boy, but a possession. A fragile doll meant to be kept, owned and broken. No one told him monsters wear expensive suits. No one warned him that some cages are lined with gold. And no one prepared him for Aleksander Volkov, the Monster of Russia.

As the world watches, Elliot and Theo must navigate their growing attraction amidst the pressure of their roles, their fans, and their own complicated feelings. -Smut included-

❝I know you love God or whatever, but I want to do the most unholy things to you.❞ Small towns harbor two types of people: those that live and die within the confines of it, and those that get the hell out while they can. Hudson is one of the lucky few with the means to pack his bags and run as fast as he can once he graduates high school.

Zane opens his eyes to a world of freedom full of lust and sin. And for the love of all things holy, he likes it.

What happens when Mateo comes home, and how will Cam ever face him again? ___ 'He looked mostly the same as last summer, older maybe, definitely more tanned.

I wonder when he looked at me, did he see me as I am now, or did he see me as I was then, that night?' ___ TW: sexual assault
