"You know Adelaide, ever since I laid my eyes on you I knew I had to have you.", he told me as I sat in the chair before him. He took a sip from his drink, the ice clinking softly against the glass, before setting it down. He stood in front of me, leaning against his dark brown wooden desk. His silk black suit hugged his frame in all the right ways, the fabric fitting his broad shoulders just right. His blue eyes locked onto mine, unreadable, intense. A slow, knowing smile tugged at the corner of his lips. My pulse quickened. I shifted in my seat, the air suddenly thick between us. My breath hitched and something dangerous coiled in my stomach. His grip was firm, his fingers tilting my chin until our eyes met. A shiver ran through me, though I wasn't sure if it was from fear or the way his blue eyes darkened with raw possession. "You're mine." His voice was low, gravelly, a promise and a threat all at once. The heat of his lips seared my forehead before he claimed my mouth, forcing me to acknowledge him. My body tensed, my mind screamed at me to fight, but my traitorous heart pounded for all the wrong reasons. One thought echoed in my head: My boss was a freaking psychopath.

A Dark Themed Mafia Romance Clementine An English teacher is a thief, she stole one hundred thousand dollars from Nikolia Ivanov and now she wants something and that's not money...She wants her to her little plaything. : : "Bishop and Omir. They are like brothers; they would never take from me." As she leaned on the sofa, her legs extended, demonstrating how massive she was and how much she was going to fuck me up with that pistol, which she carried like a toy in her hands. "You are the only person in this town who is stupid enough to steal from me." "Wait! Wait!" Wait!" I panicked, clutching her hard-stone arm. "Just what are you going to do to me?" "I'm going to fuck you for my money." She inhaled deeply and quietly. It then flows out her nose and hits my face; by this point, my heart was pounding, and I was relieved to know she was still with me. If I live, I will never consume fatty foods.
