A young girl, Valentina Luciana De Rossi had it rough.

Never in her life has she been treated fair. After the death of her mother, and the murder of her beloved father and brother at the age of 6, she was cast way to England, from her home in Italy. She was envied upon, all her life however. She had the most beautiful face, and nothing less of her body. She was always targeted by older men, only at the age of 21.

Damien Black, however, had anything he wanted, strolling through life and his deeds with ease.

He had the face of an Adonis. A body perfectly sculpted by God himself, and riches that would give a grand meal to every soul in the world. He had women falling at his feet, and men wanting to be him. He took advantage of this, and he had a reputation. Being the son of well pronounced billionaire Joseph Black, and heir to the company, Black Industry, he had big shoes to fill. He was cold, ruthless, and charming. Damien took his work seriously and took pride in it. HE disregarded women and had no shame, so what would he want with a castaway?

What happens when these two cross paths?

Sacred Ground by Sabrina_Giuseppe
12 parts Complete Mature
Book 1 in the Sacred Bonds series. There are two kinds of scars on a man. The ones you can see, etched into skin by the Texas sun, and the ones you can't; the kind carved into a twelve-year-old boy watching his legacy get stolen at the barrel of a smile. For AZAD MARTINEZ, the memory is a film reel that never stops playing. The day his father was laid in the ground, his uncle, MALIK MARTINEZ, arrived to deliver his first lesson in family: it's a weakness. He threw Azad and his grieving mother out of their own home, the only home they'd ever known, the very dirt his father had sworn was a sacred trust. But Malik didn't just take the land. As a final, calculated act of cruelty, he took Azad's older brother, ZAYAN, dragging him away to be remade in his own corrupted image. Now, years later, the echoes of that day have become a relentless soundtrack. Azad has built a new empire from nothing, a legitimate agricultural powerhouse, but every success is shadowed by the ghost of what was stolen and the sound of his mother crying in the next room, her tears a silent prayer for the son she couldn't protect, begging for a forgiveness only God and his return can grant. But Malik isn't finished teaching lessons. He's back with a contract, wielding a forgotten debt from Azad's father like a holy writ. He offers a choice that is no choice at all, a move designed to break Azad's spirit completely and claim his hard-won empire. This is where the real war begins. This is a halal romance, a journey deep into the heart of what it means to love under the weight of duty, to seek revenge without losing your soul, and to find the impossible path to forgiveness when the wound is the only thing that reminds you you're still alive. This is a story of one man standing on the land he built, forced to choose between the vengeance that fuels him and the faith that could save him, all while the ghost of his brother and the cries of his mother threaten to pull his world apart at the seams.

A world that was supposed to be long gone. A world where kill counts and cruelty decided your place in the hierarchy. A world in which crime and rigged systems were as common as breathing air. The underworld. ----------------------------- A small smirk showed in his lips and I Iet out an annoyed huff. "So what your saying amore is that you missed me?" His manner was cocky but not in the annoying way that it usually is. "No" my voice was almost a whisper. "I don't believe that" he said now taking another step forward pushing me so my back was on the door. His scent was intoxicating and his presence pushed me into a new type of high. "Do you want this?" His voice was a whisper now matching mine. I nodded not being able to form any words. "Say it" he demanded. "Yes" I whispered. Chiara Moretti has made her way up in the underworld, a deadly assassin who has a personal vendetta against the don of the Italian mafia, Valentino Hart. She has devised a plan, in which she finds herself living under the same roof as Valentino. While sparks fly, secrets spill, and the past is slowly uncovered.
