HIM Family comes first. Always. That was drilled in my head since I was a little boy. I lived with only one purpose. I would protect them. Fight for them. Kill for them. And die for them. I would take a bullet meant for them without a second thought. When their safety, our little peaceful world, is compromised, I risk it all to protect them. Putting my life on the line, I made a deal with the Devil. Because at the end of the day, my family comes first. Until HER. She changes everything. The whole game plan. The moment our eyes met, I was gone. The pull between us so hard to resist. She became my one and only undeniable Obsession. When it is time to make a choice, who would I choose? My family? or My Obsession? * HER I was living in the darkness for so long. No life. No choice. I was bent to his will, doing whatever he wanted me to do. I was no longer my own. Only because the Devil owned me. Body and soul. But not my heart. Days after days, my hope slowly vanished into thin air. Until HIM. One look was enough to make my heart beat just a little faster. He weaved his way into my unwelcome heart. He was there to stay, no matter how hard I tried to fight it. Even when the darkness blinded us, he still stayed. He was my made man. My mafia man. And I, His Obsession. But what if His Obsession is the one thing that ruins everything? (Recommended to read THE MAFIA AND HIS ANGEL first, so that it is not too confusing. Also this is recommended to 17+ due to mature content) To read The Mafia and His Angel, you will have to purchase the books. The moment it is published, I will let you know where to get it.

"Y-you," she stuttered, staring at the handsome man sitting on the sleek black throne, "you're..." He rolled his eyes, waving his hand impatiently and said, "Hades. Come on, say it with me. Ha-des." "Hades," Ariel breathed out, still not believing the sight before her. Every picture she had seen of the gods had not depicted Hades' beauty. The god sitting before her was not a crusty old man with a white beard; no, he was a Calvin Klein model. "Yes," Hades clasped his hands together and grimaced, "the God of Death and riches; that's me." Ariel nodded, still refusing to believe but knowing she had to and Hades' grimace turned even bitter, "And you, darling, will be staying with me for quite some time." ~*~ Cover: _nymphomaniac Published: 8/6/14
