kalopsia: The delusion of things being more beautiful than they are. Marriage. The epitome of what every girl should dream of. The reality of it ends you with a broken heart, ruining whatever love you had for the other person. A meaningless paper takes down all the masks and glamor to reveal the ugly nightmare of marriage truly is; a prison. At thirteen I finally understood what I wanted from life: control and freedom. My happily ever after isn't some dream fairytale, it ends with me in the far away land of New York City, growing my empire to be an indomitable fortress. No it wasn't love that was going to make me happy; money and power, however, now that would be my heaven.

I have nothing left to give up. At least that's what I thought until she walked into my life. I never thought I'd find my mate, not after this long, and I sure as hell never expected to fall so hard. But suddenly, I have everything to lose. Not all that long ago the wolves were on the verge of extinction and now the balance of peace and destruction lies in my hands. It's either her, or go to war, and the decision isn't an easy one to make. The Fae king wants blood, more importantly, my blood. I'm not afraid of him, or even dying for that matter, but if I revel my secret, lives are sure to be lost. The Fae king will stop at nothing to destroy me, but that's if I don't destroy myself first. *Warning: Contains some strong language and mature scenes*

When a cold-hearted assassin who has suppressed every single emotion, kills someone the Mafia didn't want dead, there is a slight battle for power, but when Don Sandrino, the head of part of the mafia, realises the man she killed was evil, he starts searching for her, wanting the infamous 'Thorned Rose' assassin on his side to try and take back his birthright of being the boss of bosses that his uncle stole away from him. Savannah is bored as an assassin working for a company, just killing random politicians, and wants something exciting, and that something is in the form of Don Sandrino. There is drama, tragedy, fighting and romance littering every chapter. The only thing is, Savannah doesn't know how to love, she has suppressed that emotion, along with every single other emotion, and she doesn't know who she really is as she has had to live under alias names for so long, always pretending to be someone else. She just does not know who the real Savannah is. Can Don Sandrino pull it out of her? Can he make her love again? Or will their dysfunctional romance end in death and heartbreak? *** "You know, anyone who calls me Fabricio usually ends up dead, or really hurt, anyone who dares call me Pugliesi gets their tongue chopped off and forced to swallow it, then they die," said a voice from behind me. "Well, Fabricio Sandrino Pugliesi Russo, what are you going to do to me now?" I asked, raising one of my eyebrows. "Is playing chicken one of your favourite games?" he asked, laughing. "Yes, because I always win." He laughed again. What the fuck is going on? I never make people laugh, well I never have anyone around to talk to except Nadia, who never laughs at anything, but still. "I'm waiting for you to chop my tongue out, Fabricio," I was toying with him, seeing whether his threats were real. *** THIS IS AN ACTION ROMANCE, WITH GRUESOME SCENES AND SEXUAL SCENES.
