She's His Mission
COMPLETED ✔️ "I want you to fuck off" I growl back to him and step away. Although I want to pull him further to me. "I rather think you want me to stay?" His hand again reaches my neck, my eyes connect to his and that moment I knew I couldn't pull away. --- She's running from the man she loves... into the arms of a man who could save her-or destroy her. Katerina has been outrunning death for five years. Ever since she walked away from her father-and the violent empire he built-she's learned one rule: trust no one. She works alone. No partners. No witnesses. No help. But survival comes at a price. She's forgotten what love feels like. That changes the night of the Mafia Ball. Everything finally seems to fall into place... until it all explodes. Katerina finds herself in the hands of a man with his own dangerous agenda-and no intention of letting her go. Enter Roman Fernandez, a powerful stranger offering protection, partnership... and something she hasn't felt in years: desire. His gorgeous green eyes are hard enough to resist-but his deathly grip and whispered confessions make him impossible to ignore. For the first time, Katerina isn't just fighting for her life-she's fighting to feel again. But just when her new life starts to feel real, her past resurfaces with blood on its hands. And at the center of it is the man she once vowed forever to-the husband she left behind, the only one who knows her and how to break her. He doesn't like to share. And Katerina? She was always his mission. Now, love becomes a battlefield-and the prize is her soul. --- "I really love this book and I can't wait for the next chapter!"

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]
Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing.

"We don't shoot the warn. We shoot to kill." Mitchell threatened. "You think I'm afraid of you?" Darren laughed, a little too loud for their liking.

"This is the hall bathroom," I motioned as we passed, "and this is the bedroom." "Bedroom?" Cadence clarified. "Just one? But you said I'd be staying here." I turned to see her blushing again, and had the urge to place my hand on her cheek to see if it was as warm as it looked. I didn't. "I still have to make sure you don't try anything," I explained. "You'll be staying in here. Don't worry-- it's a king sized bed." "And," Cadence began, looking anywhere but me as she took in the room, "what else does making sure I don't try anything entail?" I couldn't tell if she was trying to provoke me or not, but either way, I had made up my mind the second I determined she would stay with me exactly how keeping her here would go. "Well for starters," I told her seriously, "I'm going to need you to strip." --- Cadence Maurice wanted nothing more in the world than to have the engagement trip of her life with her fiancé, Isaiah in the beautiful city of Moscow. But all too quickly, everything was taken from her. Isaiah was shot by a man in a mask, and she was kidnapped to a desolate mansion to be interrogated about him. She thought she knew everything about her husband to-be, but the more she's questioned, the more she begins to think that maybe her sweet fiancé was the bad guy. Only, as Cadence quickly discovers, in this story, there is no good guy. Adler Ulrich, assassin by trade, and prized hitman for the dangerous Fedorov Family, thought he'd seen it all. But when he is sent to kill an enemy of the Family and finds his target using an innocent young women as a shield, he's not sure he has. When he brings the woman in for questioning instead of killing her alongside her lying fiancé, he becomes unsure of whether he's saving the blonde-haired beauty, or dooming her to a fate worse than death.
