{𝘉𝘖𝘖𝘒 𝘖𝘕𝘌 𝘖𝘍 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘓𝘖𝘝𝘌𝘓𝘌𝘚𝘚 𝘛𝘙𝘐𝘓𝘖𝘎𝘠} Ria Romano knew hurt like the back of her hand. She was dealt her fair share of bad cards, more than anyone so young should have to face. A cynical girl riddled with the remnants of her past, a shattered sort of soul. She concealed like it was second nature; her instinct being to suppress. She'd offer you a cigarette with a shrug while you were crying because she never was too great with affection. She didn't smile so often but when she did and it was directed at you, you'd never feel such satisfaction. I was told Aria preferred to be alone, isolated; clouding her mind with inhales of her cigarette and drowning it in alcohol. Until she was dealt her good card, out of the pack of bad. They had a love beautiful enough to last a lifetime, the type directors desire to capture and authors aspire to write. Two souls, shattered by the cruelty of the world time and time again with flames that rekindled each others. They were each other's oxygen. They breathed life back into each other, those two insomniacs. <3

"The Underboss and His Obsession " ۵ Amara grew up knowing two things in life: her mother knew best and would do whatever it took to protect her daughter from the real world--including keeping her sheltered. She always imagined a normal life beyond the walls of her home, and decided the only way to achieve that was to take matters into her own hands. Now, having experienced the taste of freedom under her wings, Amara suddenly finds them clipped again when she becomes a witness to a crime that lands her on the radar of a dangerous mobster named Salvatore Romano. Like anyone with common sense, Amara feared him more than anything in the world. She had every right to. He was no prince charming but rather the monster to be slayed before the happily ever after. Beneath his irresistible looks resided a twisted, cold reminder--she should have listened to her mother. Yet, despite knowing his true colors, Amara finds herself stuck on a haunting realization scarier than the man who can't seem to shake her out of his unhinged thoughts and refuses to let her go even at the expense of his sanity and thirst for vengeance. It was the realization that she would do anything for him...and she means anything. Because there are no boundaries when it comes to obsession. There are no limits when it comes to love. ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ "You would do anything for me, right, princess?" He asks softly. Slowly, I nod my head. Pressing a kiss to my forehead, he reaches into the back of his slacks then places the gun in my palm. "I want you to kill him."

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together? Loyalties transfer, lines blur, and hatred ignites complete chaos. She's cunning. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. She's dangerous. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴. She's evil. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦. Or so that's what we're told.

in a world where howard stark has a genius sister, the war doesn't just make a soldier. it makes a trio. steve rogers is the compass. bucky barnes is the heart. maxine stark is the spark with grease on her hands and sarcasm on her tongue, fixing radios, fixing rifles, fixing the people she loves because it's the only kind of praying she knows. ⋆˚࿔ but the future they used to joke about doesn't survive the 1940s. her lover falls from a train and the world calls it death. her best friend disappears into the ice and the world calls it heroic. and max gets too close to hydra's protocols, sees the pattern behind the cruelty, and hydra doesn't kill her. hydra keeps her. because she's useful. because she's leverage. because she's the one thing the winter soldiers body will still recognize when his mind won't. ⋆˚࿔ ⤷ ゛{ 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 → 𝙘𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙡 𝙬𝙖𝙧 𝙖𝙪 } ˎˊ˗ 𝙗𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙮 𝙭 𝙊𝘾, 𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙨𝙩 & 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩, 𝙨𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙗𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙧𝙚𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙤𝙣, 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙪𝙢𝙖 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮, 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩/𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩, 𝙝𝙮𝙙𝙧𝙖 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙧𝙤𝙧, 𝙛𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮
