"She's always hot I don't know why."

𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐀 𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐒𝐎 knows how to disappear in plain sight. A quiet student. A ghost in the crowd. A girl with nothing left but her books, her memories, and a name that still makes the wrong people stare. She's spent two years outrunning shadows, burying the past under exam papers and late-night coffee. But secrets don't stay buried forever. 𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐈 is heir to the empire that rules Catania, Sicily from the inside out. Cold. Lethal. Untouchable. He's been forged by blood, betrayal, and the barrel of a gun since the age of fourteen. He leads with a silence that makes men shiver, and destroys without mercy. But when a familiar name resurfaces, so does a storm he thought was long dead. When their paths collide, it's not fate. It's a warning. One wrong move could burn everything to the ground. And Elena? She might be the spark that starts the fire.

Known for having an extremely outgoing personality but also being a straight up heartbreaker. Everything is going well but that all changes when his younger sister, Carmen, joins. Carmen is the definition of beauty and brains but also completely innocent and clueless. She doesn't drink, never goes out and has been sheltered her whole life by her family's wealth; meaning Carmen has never gotten a taste of the real world by herself. What happens when she falls into the hands of the wrong person? Damian Galanis. Playboy, heartbreaker and also Maikel's best friend. He is the opposite of Maikel in every way. Yet despite the pair being entirely different to each other, they get along like two peas in the pod. Maikel and Damian support whatever one another decided to do however there was always one thing that was off limits for Damian. Maikel's little sister, Carmen. 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. Damian has always been handed everything in his life and has never been told the word "no", due to his prosperous parents giving him everything he has ever wanted and more on a silver platter. The problem is, he wants the one thing he can't have. Will things go smoothly between the pair, or will lust and temptation get the best of them? 𝐃𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐲 𝐦𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤. 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝟏𝟖+
