Caught in his grip
18+ Disclaimer: this book contains violence, sex scene and dark themes that can easily trigger someone. Kindly don't read if you are easily impressed. In the city that never sleeps, where power is won with blood and money, Catherine is the trophy wife of an ambitious financial consultant, living a life of superficial luxury. When her husband, driven by a hunger for power, tries to ingratiate himself with the Italian mafia, their fragile balance is shattered. It is in this chaos that Catherine meets Matteo Caruso, the feared leader of the city's most powerful clan. Matteo is a man of few words, preferring to assert his will through decisive actions and ruthless gestures. Drawn to Catherine's irresistible beauty and magnetic allure, he decides that she must be his, at any cost. Their forbidden attraction turns into a dangerous game, where desire and fear intertwine in a whirlwind of passion and violence. But as Catherine's world crumbles around her, buried secrets emerge, threatening everything she has ever known. --- Prologue. Catherine leaned trembling against the bathroom counter, her breath uneven as she tried to calm the frantic beating of her heart. It had been a terrible idea. She shouldn't have accepted the invitation. She should have convinced her husband to stay home. But now, with Matteo Caruso's burning gaze still etched on her skin, she knew she had gone too far. The door opened behind her, and the enveloping scent of his expensive perfume overwhelmed her. Everything about him was now her sweet curse. She didn't need to turn around to know who it was. "Don't resist, Catherine." Matteo whispered, his voice low, hoarse, and heavy with a dark promise. "We are meant to be together."
Obsession.
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. -------------------------- Word count: 110,000 There is a lot of graphic content, so please read carefully!

Marcello moves his fingers and mouth faster, making me moan several times while Vex's dick is fucking my throat. I start to slow down on Vex and pull my head to the other side. I begin to breathe heavily once I feel that I'm close. I start to move my body and slowly shut my legs. "Mmm fuck Marcello! I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming!" Vex turns my head back and pushes his dick even further into my mouth, making my eyes roll back and suddenly gag. Marcello adds another finger in me and goes faster than before. "Don't fucking come until I say so. Fucking wait." Marcello says. His hot breath causes shivers down my spine and I grab onto the edge of the desk and try to hold myself from coming. I don't know how much longer I can hold it though... "Please, Marcello! Please let me come! I want to come so bad! Please let me." I say to Marcello frantically.Complete
