Alessandro 'Sandro' Bellini's world is one of ruthless control, and his most loyal weapon is his Cane Corso, Cerberus. Across the city, Juniper 'June' Scott's world is a sunlit bakery, where she remains blissfully unaware of the shadows that govern her city. When Cerberus escapes, Sandro is prepared for war. He isn't prepared to find his beast being fed scones by a cheerful baker who has audaciously renamed the killer 'Muffin.' This singular act of canine betrayal forces the cold-blooded underboss into June's warm orbit. Each reluctant visit to retrieve his dog pulls him deeper under her spell, an addiction he can't fight. In a life of calculated sins, Sandro is about to discover his darkest vice isn't a choice, but a dangerous craving for the one woman he should be protecting her from: himself. ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ Word Count: 55,331

"Morning, Mr. Serious," I say now, setting his usual cup on the table. I add two sugar packets because I can't help myself. He never uses them. He never even looks at them. But I like the idea of them sitting there, taunting him with sweetness. His eyes flick up to mine - stormy gray, the kind that make you feel like you're under interrogation for a crime you don't remember committing. "You should stop doing that." His voice is low, accented, like gravel dragged across velvet. Russian maybe? Or Italian. Or both. Either way, it does unholy things to my stomach. "Doing what?" I ask innocently, sliding the sugar closer to his hand. "That." His gaze drops to the packets. "I don't take sugar." I grin, all sunshine and sass. "You don't know that. Maybe one day you'll wake up and realize life's better with a little sweetness." ●・○・●・○・● Rafael Volkov doesn't do small talk. Or smiles. Or sugar in his coffee. As the mafia's underboss, he's built a reputation on silence, sharp suits, and an expression that could curdle milk. So of course, Lila Parker makes it her mission to crack him. The sunny diner waitress insists on slipping him extra sugar packets, calling him "Mr. Serious" behind the counter, and treating him like a normal guy instead of a walking red flag. He tells her to stop. She doesn't. He growls. She grins. And suddenly, his late-night coffee runs feel less like routine and more like... something he shouldn't want. The problem? In his world, affection is dangerous. Smiles get noticed. Weaknesses get used. And if Lila isn't careful, her little act of kindness might just paint a target on her back. Rafael swore he didn't have a sweet tooth. Turns out he was wrong. ●・○・●・○・● Word Count: 37,478

Damian had never seen Carmen before but as soon as he sets his sight on the wholesome girl, he can't stop thinking about her.

[𝐔𝐍𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐃] A mafia leader was born to fight, to protect. Trapped in a horrifying place called mind. Drowning deeply in thoughts and wonders, never leaving his path, setting aside questions left unanswered. • They tend to say she knows everything, she's capable of anything, yet that wasn't enough to fill in his inquisitiveness. • Will she be the one who gives him the answers? Will both of their worlds collide, to become one. Or will it crash, causing more damage, betrayal. • Trust was never a thing he gave out, yet somehow she guided him to give in all he had. Would he step back? Would he kill a person he once trusted? • Power was held from both sides, which one will win? Which one will stand still until the end? • A journey that no one dared to step in. A journey that causes nothing but death. He became the first one to take the risk. The first to stand in front of the tigress, the one that's been living inside of her for years, ready to attack, to tear apart its prey. • Is he the one? Is he the one and only survivor? • Find out yourself. ---------------------------- •RANKINGS: 5# in enemies [October 3rd 21] 1# in mafia book [October 7th 21] 1# in alessandro [April 5th 22] 4# in enemies [April 25th 22] 5# in romannce [May 25th 22] 5# in russians [May 25th 22] 6# in missing [May 26th 22] 3# in romannce [May 30th 22] 4# in russians [May 30th 22] 2# in romannce [July 18th 22] 1# in Alessandro [July 22nd 22] 1# in strongfemalelead [August 12th 22] 1# in romannce [September 30th 22] 1# in romannce [October 1st 22] 4# in assassin [October 11th 22]

(For the girls who crave darkness, power, and a passion that breaks every boundary-this is for you. Be a good girl, follow my lead, and take it all.) Caterina Di Luca is 20, a deadly spy feared for her beauty, brains, and unshakable loyalty. Her latest mission is the most dangerous yet: to take down Damiano David Volkov, a 33-year-old mafia boss known as the Bloodthirsty King. Ruthless and cold, he's a man who kills without mercy, and Caterina is tasked with ending his reign. But as she gets closer to him, something shifts. What started as hatred and a thirst for vengeance slowly transforms into something darker-a dangerous, undeniable attraction. Damiano, too, finds himself drawn to her, torn between wanting to destroy her and claiming her for himself. As their hearts and bodies collide, both must decide: will they destroy each other-or give in to the twisted love that could cost them everything? In this game of power, lies, and desire, nothing is as it seems. The mission might have started with blood, but it's their hearts that could be the ultimate price. ******* "I'm fucking yours," I gasp, eyes locked to his . "To ruin. To worship. To destroy if you have to." Goddamn. "Good," he whispers darkly. "Because I don't make love, foxy. I claim."
