Enzo doesn't expect much of a life for himself, really. Nobody else does.
He expects to carry on the family tradition, naturally. His grandfather, cousins, uncles, and even cousins twice removed had all fallen into the same sorry pattern. They married young out of necessity after impregnating even younger women, got a job at a construction site or a gas station, then drank through their liver like there was no tomorrow until there was, in fact, no tomorrow for them after all.
It was a sorry existence to look forward to, but it was all he thought he had a chance for.
Then he met Aud, and his view on everything changed.
She was a light skinned, blonde haired, bright eyed bombshell, and she broke down Enzo's protective walls like a living hurricane.
She didn't know his story, and he didn't know hers, and despite all this they were thrown into a split second situation that would soon change Enzo's view on life forever.
There's a funny thing about hurricanes, though.
The second you get used to them, they've already vanished.

Mentions drugs, drinking, and other mature themes. Strong language. (Rare) I'd rate this around 12+.
I'm not opposed to younger readers, it really isn't that bad.
Enjoy!<3
If you like fantasy/romance you should try my story The Flower Longed Death. It is written a lot better than this one is!

"You must've got the wrong impression if you keep expecting to get away with shit like this, so let me make things clear," He says with a calm smile.
He moves his face closer to mine, losing the lighthearted grin that had previously cooled my nerves. I get a better look at the scar across the bridge of his nose, and the vague one X'ed onto his lips.
Now I want them even more.

Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City. She didn't think she wanted it to. However, she also didn't think she would cross paths with a guy like Valen, the Italian Mafia's heir. He's only twenty three, but he's somehow the most attractive and intimidating man she has ever met, let alone heard of. Mileva battles her anxiety adjusting to this new life of hers, while Valen is just getting comfortable with his new obsession.
