"Behind those eyes, there's a girl in there desperately trying to break free. A girl who needs to be wanted so she can escape. 
        I'll be your redemption. " 

     "Stare at the devil's eyes head on. 
Demand an answer and free your self from his shackles..  Only you can do that. "


He helped her, some say he saved her but in the end... He left her.  

    Munachi Odumba the former outcast of Emerald Academy has evolved a lot since the first day she walked into the school.
    From being laughed at, avoided, respected by teachers, dating the most popular boy in school, mourning his absence, moving on with his best friend-second most popular boy in school, adjusting to his return and learning how to let go, she's been through it all. 
   Now she has friends who have proved that they'll have her back in any situation, friends she'd learnt and grew with, friends she would be willing to kill for, the type of friends that she has always wanted.  
      She's learnt how to forgive, learnt how to move on, learnt how to harness and turn her negative emotions into positive impacts and now she's stronger than ever but the one who was once her greatest strength and the only reason why she'd evolved so beautifully is now the weakness she has to either overcome or learn to live with.

The Mafia's Mercy by Laisha_Gardner
11 parts Complete Mature
The darkness in his eyes, the dangerous smell of alcohol in his breath, and his deathly grip keeping me bound to him made my heart pound in my chest and my body quiver beneath him. Shamefully, it wasn't anything that I wasn't used to, because...the things I let him do to me? When he was frustrated, annoyed, and angry at the world, I was here to be his pound of flesh. In return, he masked the void of my loneliness because for months, that was the transaction of our relationship. He'd pin me to the wall, bend me over the counter, pull my hair, slap me, choke me, and I enjoyed every second of it because in that moment, it finally felt good to be powerless. Irony is a funny thing. I enjoyed being in pain because it made me forget how much I was hurting. *** "I warned you, doll." His voice strikes a string of chills down the base of my spine, a reminder that all of the time in the world could pass, and he's still not letting go. This is where the good girl in me dies. "You're mine now," he whispers. *** My name is Mercy-Mercy Carter. I went to college. Got myself a useless Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree. His name is Marcel-Marcello Saldívar. However, at the time, I didn't know that he, the heir to the Saldívar Mafia empire, was the man that I had blindly offered myself to. As smart as I am, I was stupid all the times when it actually mattered. After all, he did warn me that he was dangerous. I just didn't think he could be much worse than my thug of a brother. I was vulnerable-naive. My name is Mercy, and I belong to him. My name is Mercy, and I am The Mafia's Mercy. ⚠️ Content Advisory: This is a DARK Romance novel, in every sense of the word. It DOES contains DARK themes that may be triggering. Reader discretion is STRONGLY advised.

Published on the 12th of November, 2018. What the fuck! Can't you watch where you're going?? You almost injured me!" I said dusting my skirt and trying to get up with the help of the wall of course. " I'm so sorry. My bad" a deep voice told me. I quickly looked up and well he was too tall. I'm like the average height girl. I'm just 5"5. He's more like 5"11 or 6ft. I'm not sure. He was not too dark neither was he fair. He had this look on his face, I wasn't sure if he was smiling or frowning. It was confusing. His lips were redish and looked quite kissable. Idiot! Snap out of it jor My name is Oluchi. It was just a dare. Or so I thought. Follow Oluchi on a journey filled with love, trust, betrayal, lies. What will happen when the dare she thought was so little could end up being so destructive.
