But his breathing was heavy and hot against my skin. He placed hard kisses on my back with his hand wrapped around my stomach to hold me in place. I gasped at the warmth of his kisses. "Why do you own something like this?" He asked coldly. "I-I bought it for a date," I stuttered out. A small bite on my back made me shoot up with a small yelp. "You were going to wear this for some other guy?" Damien's voice dripped with jealousy. "And what if I was?" I mocked, indulging in the stinging I felt where his lips touched. "Then you need to be punished," he said in a low voice. MATURE: Depictions of sex, violence, and profanity #1 in Books #1 in Cute #1 in Comedy #1 in Funny #2 in Hot #4 in Love #5 in Drama

[ 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐒 𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐘 #𝟑 ] Valentino Lars was the family's black sheep, the unpredictable younger brother to Damien, the infamous mafia boss. Where his brother moved with cold precision, Valentino moved like a storm-a mix of charm and danger, known for his love of fast cars, motorcycles and his recklessness that bordered on suicidal. He was the man who tested limits, who played with fire until it burned. Running his racing arena, he thrived in chaos, pulling in the crowd that came for the thrill but stayed to watch him dance with disaster. He was magnetic, trouble trailing him like a shadow he couldn't shake. Carlotta Fernández was everything Valentino was not: calculated, controlled, and unbreakable. Her family's reputation was bad, but Carlotta was the exception, carrying herself with a quiet urge. She was stunning, with rich brown skin, long curls, and a striking beauty that only hinted at the strength within. Behind the wheel, she was pure precision, her talent for racing more about mastery than mayhem. Carlotta allowed few into her world, and for those who did break past her icy walls, her loyalty was a fierce, unshakable bond. Their worlds should never have touched, each representing a path that warned against the other. But fate, in its twisted design, pulled them close, the beginning of a collision neither could avoid.
