!!!!THIS IS AN INCOMPLETE STORY WITH A WORKING TITLE!!!! WARNING: This is a super dark and fucked up book. I cannot stress this enough. This isn't my usual stuff. It contains attempted murder, full murder, torture, heavy possessiveness, violence (heavy on the violence), guns, talks of murder and crimes and crime families. There are mentions of abuse and sexual abuse and animal cruelty. While some of these you won't see, they will be mentioned and the effects of them will be discussed. Please read the above and take is seriously. PREMISE: A Canadian woman, while on a trip to Italy, witnesses a murder completed by a Mafia family. She makes an odd request that is granted. One Italian sunset, one sunrise, and a quick death. However it does not go the way it is supposed to. She survives and to protect the family, her attempted murderer, a very openly psychopath man, marries her to prevent her from being able to talk to the police. The book, when completed will follow how she adapts to this marriage and how they come to an agreement as she works through her trauma from her own childhood being raised by a psychopathic father while being married to an unrepentant killer. And while her husband realizes that his form of control isn't the ONLY way of control and that sometimes, giving up control can be a good thing and sometimes being unable to feel most emotions doesn't mean that they still can't be there in some form.

The Boarding House Horror
A much-hated man is found dead, his face twisted into a rictus of horror. Young Inspector Visser can't stand the sight of blood or death, so this case was destined to be a struggle, even before a storm hits. The death occurred in an isolated boarding house on Pluvierstraat, The Hague. Fighting nausea as he examines the body, Visser grudgingly concludes that the death is murder by poison. Which of the motley group of suspects is the killer? The blind woman? The practical jokester? The Italian ex-convict? The English bookie? The scarred railroad engineer? Or could it be the pretty piano teacher? Visser orders them all to stay inside the house as he completes his time-consuming police work. The confinement becomes real when a storm strikes, cutting electricity and telephone. Clues mount and tensions rise, and the murderer among them could kill again. The more clues Visser unravels, the closer he comes to becoming the next victim. ---- I tried to channel Agatha Christie a bit. Okay, more than a bit. This story was longlisted in the 2020 "Open Novella Contest," and won 2nd place in the 2022 Punk Rock Awards, Mystery & Suspense category. Comments welcome!Concluída

Suspect Number Five | ONC 2023
Tristan Young is, by all logical conclusions, a failure. His dream career of private investigation has left him with nothing but debt and an empty office. So when a mysterious phone call makes him a grand promise of fame and success, the decision to accept is simple. There is only one price for his ambition: one night in the local manor, and one dinner with five strangers. Easy enough. Until, sometime in the dark, the price turns bloody. With one of the party's attendees now dead and no other suspects but the remaining five, they are all thrust deep into a murder case riddled with secrets. For Tristan, it should be his fantasy come true; he finally has a puzzle to solve and a chance to put his skills to use. But the games in his head never placed himself as a puzzle piece. The game becomes a race. He has to clear his name and win what he was promised before it's too late. -♧- Written for the Open Novella Contest 2023, using prompt 49. -- ONC Shortlister -- [cover art by the amazing @-aceospades-]Concluída![Mr. Regnante [Mafioso Book#1] (SAMPLE)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/73056020-256-k964376.jpg)
Mr. Regnante [Mafioso Book#1] (SAMPLE)
*Heighest ranking 26th in Love, 1st in General Fiction, and 1st in Tragedy, as well as no#1 in mystery* When you're the most feared and powerful Italian Mafia Boss, you cannot have the world know of your existence or of any personal ties you may have. Otherwise bad things tend to happen, and this man learned that lesson the hard way. Now, he refuses to allow anyone close to him, much less get anywhere past his cold exterior. Their story wasn't meant to begin like it did. They weren't meant to meet the way they did. After all, she was only a university student and he was a ghost. Nonexistent, a rumor, a story you told your children at night. But when the most unforeseen circumstances cause their paths to cross, not once, not twice, but thrice--an encounter that ends with the vow of discretion and avoidance. They have no choice but to acknowledge they have to stay away before one of them gets hurt. Which is exactly what happens. This causes another encounter between the two, but this time with a promise of safety and security, because he owes her his life. *** "I say what I mean, and I do what I say." He assured in a low rumbling voice that had her transported back to older times. "And when I say I will keep you safe, believe me, that not even a hair on your head will be touched."
