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

They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*
