It is a well-established fact amongst those who lurk the criminal underworld that love is nothing more than a weakness. It is a weakness that those who want to destroy you will take advantage of in order to bring you down to your knees in the dirt at their feet, with the barrels of their guns pressed against the skin of your temple, ready to end your life with one meaningless flick of their finger. However, Vittorio Lucente, the Don of the most influential and notorious crime family the underworld has ever known, quickly learns that love is an emotion beyond his vast control, and that the moment he starts to fall for the broken beauty behind the bar, it is impossible for him to just stop. Rose feels as though she is a shell of who she could be, having had to live a life where violence and pain was thrust upon her the moment she was born, but that doesn't stop her from falling deeper and deeper into a world where brutality is almost as normal as needing oxygen to live. Rose has her thorns, and yet Vittorio is still all too willing to take a firm grip on her and risk his very own blood being drawn, just so long as he can keep her safe away from those wanting to hurt her. They both have their enemies and they not only threaten to tear the two of them apart, but they also threaten to completely shatter both of their worlds. - A/N - I started this book in 2015, and I'm continuing it in 2020. This is also likely to be the first out of a two book series. Warning: There will be violence and mention of abuse, sexual abuse, drugs, alcohol and sex. Author's Note: This is my first original story and these are my own characters.

Imagine a world where there is no freedom. Imagine a world where your identity is stripped bare and all that's left of you are the memories of the past. Imagine being forced into things you never signed up for. Imagine being sold. That was Jane's world. Then Sebastian enters her world. A man who is the epitome of crime and danger. A man who destroys her, steals her innocence, uses her and breaks the very last pieces remaining in her soul. They say there is a really thin line between love and hate. So what happens when Sebastian crosses it? Can mistakes really be forgiven or will he drown in the misery of his actions and kill her in the process? [He walked, strolling confidently across the room, looking at me as if I was a piece of meat. I knew that look well, too well. I could feel his breath on my neck. He brought his hands onto my body, running through my arms slowly, approvingly smiling at what he had found. I tried to calm myself down but his actions weren't helping. He leaned down to my ear and whispered, "Take off your clothes."] Warning: This story contains DARK THEMES. Read at your own risk.
