Alessandra Morino has spent her whole life as an assassin, always being a shadow in the dark. Luciano Moretti is a name that is feared all over America and Italy, the whole world in fact. He is the Don of the Italian Mafia. Both are people you do not want to cross. When Alessandra and Luciano team up to bring down a common enemy, sparks fly and not necessarily the good kind too. She battles demons that threaten to swallow her whole. He is the devil incarnate, searching for his angel. This is the story of two people who are so different yet so similar, who intrigue each other as much as they intimidate each other. 'A King is nothing without his Queen. You are far more than my Queen, tesoro.' Note: This story breaks certain stereotypes surrounding mafia stories so please do give it a chance. *available on Webnovel too

She was a piece of Heaven he wanted to own. And he, was the flames of Hell she wanted to tame. "You must be tired." The unparalleled face softens with an indulging smile, and I nod hastily like a chick pecking at grains. My reason, wisdom, and rationality became words of a foreign tongue when the fingers tangled amongst my hair trail down to my cheekbones, the caresses like the fine strokes of a paint brush that gave colour to my skin. "But next time." His eyes of hellfire narrows, reflecting the features of a iolite-eyed mortal, and crimson lips pull back over sharp canines. "I might not be as easy to tame." ■What happens when the greek god of the Underworld becomes the 'Grumpy Patient' to a kind hearted mortal, burdened by a curse untold, and a gift unrivalled.■ Slow burn ♡ Update schedule : Every 2 days ◇ #1 - Mythology, #3 - in fantasy, #4 - Humor

She would read and wait for her Prince Charming to come and sweep her off her feet.

COMPLETE #1 in Fantasy #1 in Adventure #1 in Historical Fiction ---------- Sometimes, believing helps us to see truth. Other times, we need a little evidence to believe. But there is truth behind everything; every false manoeuvre, ever little lie...a small piece of truth is hidden. Just like truth is wound into legends too. Growing up best friend to the future King, Arabelle never really thought her life could go wrong. Whenever she wanted something, or needed something, she would get it. Then she lost her father at a young age and Arabelle was forced into a world of dresses, balls, and lies. Being a tomboy, Arabelle would have rather been out on her horse doing archery practice with her brothers. When Arabelle gets curious and sneaks into a forbidden area of the castle, she discovers a deadly secret: her bloodline is sacred, dating back to a legend surrounded by the one thing she knows not to be true. Unsure what to do, she gets caught up in a series of events that lead to her being hidden and whisked away from the only familiar place she knew. After making some unlikely allies, Arabelle sets off on a journey to find the legend of the last dragon egg. Fate has something big in store for her; will she be able to withstand the pressure of it all?There is one thing Arabelle needs to learn to survive this new place... Some things are more than a legend. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2013 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.

Sa kwentong ito, malalaman mong hindi lahat ng tinatawag na "freak" ay dorky, nerd, or just generally not nice-looking. Dahil minsan, may mga freak din na filthy rich at sobrang gwapo. Minsan pa, nagkakataong ang freak na 'yon ay ang iyo mismong boss. Meet Mirathea Custodio a.k.a Mira, isang accountant na ang tanging gusto lang naman ay ma-hire bilang susunod na accounting department head ng Medialink Marketing Inc., isa sa mga pinakamalaking kumpanya sa bansa. Ngunit dahil yata sadyang unlucky day ni Mira nang mismong araw ng interview niya sa Medialink, isang reckless driver na nakasakay sa isang sosyal na Audi ang sumira sa pangarap niya. Meet Vren Andrei Ayala Montevilla a.k.a. Vren, kilala bilang ang notoriously good-looking yet notoriously mean din na owner at CEO ng Medialink Marketing, Inc. At ang number one sa kanyang everyday to-do list: ang magsuplado. But despite being rich, mega-successful, and unbelievably handsome, hindi pa rin siya nakaligtas from that one fateful morning na simula pala ng pagpasok ng isang painfully annoying na babae sa buhay niya. Well, what can they do? No one is safe from destiny. **** My Boss is a Freak A Wattpad Featured Story (2014) A Pop Fiction New Adult Book (2017)
