I cupped her face, planting a soft kiss on her beautiful lips. "Don't ever run from me, baby," I said softly, letting my thumb trace her jaw. "I love the chase." Her jaw tightened, her hands coming up to try and move mine. "Stop calling me baby, Ezra," she snapped, eyes flashing. I couldn't help but grin, dropping my voice to something low and dark. "Ohhh, now my baby has a problem with me calling her baby?" She shot me a glare, but I just tucked her hair behind her ear, pressing another kiss to her lips-gentler this time, lingering. "You don't get to tell me what to call you, baby." I leaned in closer, brushing my nose against hers. "You're whatever the fuck I call you."

Isabella had never really fit into the mold that her family was forcing her in. Luckily, she finds a place that accepts her as she is. However, she didn't expect it to be among a bunch of rowdy bikers. *** Isabella knew how her life would go - even if she didn't like it. Since the day she was born she had been shaped and squished into the role of the perfect high-society trophy girl. But the shoe never really fit. She was too curious, too clumsy, too nice. When she intercepts a flying coffee cup for a complete stranger, little did she know she would soon be staying with the city's infamous motorcycle club. And it seems the rowdy men have little intention of letting her go any time soon. Especially not their large, protective enforcer. And that is alright with Isabella. Home is where the heart is and she's lost hers in the Steel Rebels' club house. **** This is the first part of Isabella's and Knux's story and will be completed with "Hammer & Anvil (Steel Rebels MC #2)". ***** Fictive location.

She crosses paths with a man whose charm feels effortless and whose presence feels safe... until the shadows around him start to move. She falls for him quick unaware that he's carrying a life she's never seen - a life stitched together with danger, loyalty, and secrets heavy enough to break anyone who gets too close. As their worlds intertwine, the truth begins to surface in pieces, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about love, trust, and herself. Their connection is real, undeniable even, but the double life he lives threatens to pull them under. In a story where loyalty twists, danger breathes, and love refuses to let go, one question lingers above all: Will the secrets he hides be the thing that destroys them... or the fire that binds them tighter than they ever imagined?

RACE TO THE MAFIA COVER MADE BY: @Laylaxybae this book is NOT like normal mafia books, this is very unrealistic!! ~~~~~ Leo sits up. "You sure you don't want to sleep on here?" "I'm not sleeping with you." I reply coldly. "I didn't say you had to." He states. "Turn off the lights." I command him. He laughs. "No." I sigh and get off the dingy sofa to turn off the lights. I turn off the lights, "Turn them back on." Leo demands. I laugh, "No." I mock him. ~~~~~ DESCRIPTION: 2 "leaders" who can't seem to settle on a decision. 2 hackers who are ex-assassins. 1 thief who can't shut up. 1 engineer who's a little too happy. 1 soldier who would rather observe and watch the show. All of the Mafia Heirs are put together in a boarding school, which prepares them to lead the Mafia. Something goes wrong, and they are sent on a mission to each of their native countries in order to stop it.....or at least try to. It's a race to try and save the world, a race of life, or death ~~~~~ DISCLAIMER: I used google translate for all of the translations throughout the book, so please correct me if it's wrong :)) This is also my first book....so it's probably shit but be patient w me😫

He came into my bathroom and his eyes locked on mine. A loud growl emitted out of him, "Mate!" he yelled at me. "What are you talking about?" I asked trying to move away from him. "Mine!" He wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me towards him. He shoved his head into the crook of my neck, just inhaling and I could feel his breath on my neck. -------------------------- ⚠️ R E A D T H E T A G S ⚠️
