"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage.

She goes to the station expecting the classic "we'll put you into the system" but finds out that she has 6 older brothers who have been searching for her since she was taken from them. Natalie only has one rule: Don't trust men. But how will she react when these new men in her life treat her with nothing but love, well all except for one. Will they break down her wall and see that broken teenager inside or will her years of abuse keep her isolated from her refound family. If that wasn't enough drama for her 'new life', out of nowhere she finds out there is someone watching her. She found them but he found her TW: mentions of abuse, rape, strong language. This is my first story so please be mindful and I also suck at descriptions but I would appreciate anyone who reads xx.

My mother once faced horrors because of my father's past choices, and now, here I am, staring at my own nightmare. Enzo Salvatore Costa, the name alone brings hell into anyone's life, a name that people fear. And now, I'm the one caught in his dark sights. I kneel before him, wrists and ankles bound, facing the ruthless man with a smirk that reveals he's enjoying every moment of my helplessness. "Now, what should I do with you, my sweet Aria?" he asks, his smirk growing wider as he sits across from me. Despite the situation, I gather my courage and snap back. "Let me go, you bloody bastard!" I shout, but my defiance only amuses him. "Looks like Mi corazón needs to learn what happens when you try to escape the devil." In response, I spit on his face, meeting his smirk with one of my own. _____________________________________ Meet Aria DiCaprio Malik, the mafia princess.

Maya applied pressure to my wound. I hissed from the pain. "Stop fucking around." She rolled her eyes at me. Maya finished tending my wound, wrapping it with a bandage. As she got up to put the first aid away, I stopped her. My thumb rubbed against the cool skin of her hand. I pulled her to sit on my lap. My fingers ran through her hair. "You're doing it again." I ignored her, sinking my chin into her shoulder. "I have no idea what you're talking about." I placed small pecks on neck. Her breathing turning heavy. "Stop. Someone could walk in." "And?
