She might start wanting to be ruined. ༺✧༻ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 ✓ 𝟒𝟎 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 Credit to the incredibly talented @lunarloverz for making the cover 🫶

𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐭 𝐃𝐞 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚 25 years old, a billionaire and Mafia Don. Everyone fears, admires and respects him. 𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐬 20 years old and works in a bakery. Despite having a bad past, she is a really sweet and down-to-earth person. What happens when 𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐭 𝐃𝐞 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚 wants to claim 𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐬 as his but she straight away rejects him? ▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ "Y-you..." The word died on my tongue. I froze, my muscles turning to absolute stone as my lungs struggled to draw air. This was a nightmare. The walls I had spent months building to hide our tracks collapsed in a heartbeat. How did he find us? My body violently flinched when Elliott laughed. It was a deep, low baritone that vibrated through the floorboards of the plane and struck a chord of primal terror in my chest. My back collided with Levi's chest behind me as I stumbled back. It was over. The realisation made my blood turn to ice. He had found me and I was entirely at his mercy now. "I am deeply wounded by your reaction, my love. Truly, why are you so afraid?" Elliott uncoiled from his seat with a slow, predatory grace. He stood at his full, imposing height, casually smoothing the lapels of his charcoal black suit. An amused half-smile played on his lips that didn't reach the absolute void of his emerald eyes. "I haven't even started with you yet." He murmured, his voice dropping into a dark warning as he stepped out from behind the seat, closing the distance between us. "Save those pretty tears for later, hm? You are going to need them." ▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ #1 in Captive #2 in CEO #2 in Forcedlove #2 in Italian #2 in Mafiaboss #2 in Character development #3 in Darkromance #3 in Fear #3 in Panicattacks #4 in Manipulation #4 in Plottwist #7 in Billiona

Book one of the annihilation series Jeon Min-ho, a name whispered with a mix of dread and respect in the dark alleys of the underworld. He is the epitome of power, a Mafia king whose mere presence commands silence. His lineage is one of blood and honor, tracing back to a legacy crafted by his father and uncle. Min-ho, however, is not just a successor; he is an empire builder, a man who carved his path with a charisma as lethal as his force. His handsome visage is but a deceptive veil over the iron will within. Noor Singh, a princess not just by birth but by spirit, radiates a charm that belies her resilience. Her world shattered when assassins, cold and calculating, took from her what she held dear. In the aftermath, she finds herself a pawn in a game of power, her captors seeking to barter her life for peace with Min-ho. But they underestimated her; she is no mere token to be traded. The assassins' intrusion into Min-ho's domain was a fatal error, a challenge to his authority he cannot ignore. A meeting is set, not for negotiation but for retribution. Yet, amidst the shadow of death, a glimmer of beauty captures Min-ho's hardened heart. Noor, even in her battered state, is a vision that ensnares him. A decision is made: she will be his, but not as a gift from trembling foes. He will claim her as his own after he delivers justice in its most final form. But Noor is no damsel in distress, and Min-ho will soon discover that the fiercest battles come from within. For Noor's spirit is unyielding; she bows to no one. Their worlds collide, a tumultuous clash of wills, and from this storm, a question arises: Can the Mafia king win the heart of the indomitable princess, or will she be the queen to checkmate the king? This tale of power, passion, and defiance is just beginning, and only time will tell how it will unfold. The game is set, the players ready, and the world watches with bated breath as destiny plays its hand.
