In which an eighteen-year-old succumbs to an older man . . . "I can't resist him, even though I tried. Call me weak, pathetic, my ears are deaf except if it's his voice they're listening to. Because no matter what, just one touch and I'm at his mercy."

"You're going to let me fuck you like a good girl?" he asks and leans down, "Because you are, aren't you? A good girl?" . . . Elena Amoretto has always been smitten by the one and only, Ares Aetos. For three years, she's adored him from afar. Admiring the god of war and falling deeper into her obsession. While Ares can't seem to stand her. Where she's infatuated with him, he merely acknowledges her existence. While being the center of the spotlight herself. As the front woman of the rising band Icarus, Elena has to face the world while struggling with anxiety. To make matters worse, Ares is the drummer of the band rivaling hers, Dopamine. And just as fate would have it, his band and hers are touring together. She's supposed to hate him. But how could she? When all she does is drown in the blue of his eyes and willingly dies at the ruthless hands of Ares? The god of war who brings her down on her knees while she blissfully falls into his melancholy.

One regretful mistake that shouldn't have happened leads to a whirlwind of chaos. Five years ago, mafia princess, Rose Romano fled from her father's clutches. On the grand night of her return, she's controlled by her harrowing memories and stumbles into the room of a man she should've never looked twice at. Luca Armani. The cruel, cold, conceited monster and King to one of the world's strongest mafias. Also, her father's ultimate rival. In a moment of weakness, she's entangled in his silk sheets and his hands are buried deep in her hair. Mistakenly, lasciviously, regretfully. Both their perceptive minds thought there were no strings attached, yet she's continuously forced around the scrutiny of his intimidating, lustful, grey eyes when someone threatens to expose their little secret to her father. But, that's not the only secret she has. ✽ ✽ ✽ @peachygraham: ITS HARD TO READ OTHER STORIES AFTER I READ YOURS. I keep comparing them to your writing style and your characters.

"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting.

Dangereuses, malignes, et mortelles, elles sont les ombres des plus grands réseaux, les représentantes de leurs chefs, aussi appelés possesseurs. Depuis son adolescence, Ella est une captive contre son gré. John, son possesseur, préfère utiliser son corps plutôt que ses talents, plongeant sa vie dans un cauchemar éveillé. Jusqu'au jour où il lui annonce qu'elle va travailler pour quelqu'un d'autre... Si Ella pensait qu'il ne pouvait y avoir pire que John, elle réalise très vite que son nouveau possesseur joue dans une tout autre catégorie. Ce certain « Ash », leader charismatique du réseau des Scott, refuse la présence d'une captive à ses côtés. Pour une raison obscure, il voue une haine viscérale à ces femmes. Un jeu dangereux s'installe alors entre eux, car Asher entend bien faire payer Ella, mais celle-ci ne compte pas céder.. « Ne joue pas avec le diable, mon ange, ne t'aventure pas dans ce que tu regretteras. » ⚠️ Certaines scènes peuvent heurter les plus jeunes ⚠️ TOUS DROITS RÉSERVÉS ©
