"Watch it." "Watch it," I mock him in a whisper, feeling brave. Suddenly, he gets up from his stool and stalks towards me. His large frame towering over my sitting form. I swallow the last bit of my pancakes slowly, my eyes wandering up his body until they stop at his face. He seems displeased. Very much so. His hand grabs the part where my head and neck connect and he slowly but firmly tilts my head back, his fingers tangling in my hair. His skin is rough on mine but still oddly comforting. "What did you just say?" He asks, each of his words pronounced slowly and precisely. "I-I-I j-just.. I was j-just joking." I barely choke out. "You were just joking, huh?" "Mhm." I nod, my head subconsciously leaning into his touch my eyes closing on their own accord. His thumb caresses my cheekbone and I never want him to stop. I have never had a male being make me feel this good before. Don't get me wrong I did kiss a few people but it never felt as good as what he is doing right now. "Romy?" "Yes," I breathe out, biting my lip. His thumb is quick in pulling it from between my teeth. "Nevermind." He rushes out, detaching his hand from my face. Hey Guys! I hope you enjoy my story.

(Can be read as a standalone.) My parents are hell bent on getting me married, convinced that a wife will magically "fix" me. As a mafia leader, idle talks and constant affection makes no sense to me. Never had and never will. Thanks to some dumb rule and my parents' constant nagging, I settle down with the girl of their choice. Irene's the type of girl I would never give a second glance to, the type I would deem average looking. And that's just not it. She's a chatter box who can't survive without physical affection. A complete opposite of me. I never had a need for a wife but with every innocent touch, every stupid smile, every word of hers my walls break down until I am left yearning for her with an intensity I can't even comprehend.

It felt like heaven to fall in love with hell...

Sage was left at the alter by her ex fiancé to elope with her sister. She was broken. Would she even find the one or be a victim to more heartbreak?. "If you stand over there you're definitely going to fall" He argued back obviously getting tired of me. Wanting to test his patience doing the exact opposite of what he wanted, I stood on the rock in the middle of the river. "No I won't, stop telling me what to do" I grumbled folding my hand in response he raised his brow at me "seriously you want to act like a child" "I'm not acting like a child I simply w.....arghhh" and I slipped of the rock and into the river. Unfortunately I slipped into the deep end of the river, fortunately the current wasn't too strong, I managed to swim back over to the river bank without much issue and me accidentally drowning myself. "This is the part where I say told you so" "And this is the part where I say if you love your little friends you won't dare" I threatened I was soaking wet, cold and shivering. "It's not little" He leaned down to whisper in my ear "Do you want to take a go" I was flustered but no way was I going to let him win this teasing battle he started. "Don't mind if I do" my lips were on the edge of his as I rained kisses around his face my hands roamed up to his sweater dragging it over his head ,he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. He whispered my name "Sage" I stared at him with intensity as I reached over to yank the sweater completely out of his hand and start on the buttons on my shirt.....
