"Enzo, I hate you." "No, you don't." "I do," I snapped immediately. "I really fucking hate you." A quiet laugh left him like I was saying something cute instead of serious. "You're terrible at lying," he said. "I'm not lying." He stepped closer. That was my problem. He always stepped closer like space meant nothing. "Say it again," he murmured. "Go to hell." "Still soft," he said. My jaw tightened. "I am NOT soft." He tilted his head slightly, studying me like he was remembering something I didn't want him to remember. Then suddenly, his hand caught my waist and he pulled me in effortlessly. "Enzo-let go!" "Stop fighting me," he said calmly. "I hate you!" "No," he said, voice lower now. "You don't." My breath caught. "Why do you always say that?" I whispered. "Because I know you." That made something in my chest twist. "You don't know me," I said quickly. Then his thumb brushed lightly at my waist like he didn't even notice he was doing it. "That's the funniest lie you've ever told, tesoro." ────୨ৎ──── 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚 𝐈𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐨 grew up knowing one thing for certain: love was never meant for her. Not in her father's house, where silence was safer than speaking. Not in her family, where blame always found her first. And definitely not in the past she buried so deep she stopped visiting it. But the past doesn't stay buried. It walks right back in. 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐳𝐨 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚 𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐢 was never supposed to look at her like that again. Cold eyes. Controlled voice. A man built from mafia blood and obedience. Now he stands too close. Speaks too calm. Watches her like she's a mistake he refuses to correct. And Andrea hates it most when he looks like he remembers. Because she remembers too. And neither of them are supposed to. Now she's in his world again. Not by choice. By arrangement.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
