Caroline was a girl who enjoyed the simple things in life. Coffee, a good binge-watching session, a long run around the city, and finishing work at a reasonable hour. 

Adriano De Luca was not simple by any definitions of the word. He was a complicated, intelligent man who wanted nothing more than to change the past, and since time travel hasn't yet been invented, what better way than to reconnect with his childhood crush?

When Caroline's company gains the business of Adriano De Luca, the new CEO of Pharaoh Co. and her old childhood best friend, the once school nerd turned real-world genius, tries to capture the attention of the once school all-star athlete, an athlete who wants anything but a relationship. 

How far will one go to make their old friend their new lover?

**COMPLETED** "TELL ME WHY YOU SPECIFICALLY CHOSE MY LIFE TO RUIN?" Her heart was beating out of her chest. She thought she might just die right there from a heart attack, if Luca doesn't kill her first. All of a sudden, he smirked, "because from all the options of girls that were given to me, you stood out as the kind that I would enjoy to torture until I don't need to anymore." He let her go. "And, besides, I won't let you die this easily. I want to fill your life with unpleasantness before I decide if I want to take that pathetic life yours or not." That answer shattered Celeste's world into pieces. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Calestina Caro is an average girl. She's quiet and keeps to herself. Her hobbies are reading books, watching tv shows and listening to music. She even gets good grades at school. There's only one problem with her life though... She's the daughter of a powerful Mafia Boss. She doesn't have a single mean bone in her body. Unlike, the man made of nightmares. Luca Battaglia is a rich, arrogant and possessive playboy with little to no mercy to show towards people. He's also the leader of one of the most dangerous Mafia groups to ever exist. A literal nightmare in his work field. What makes his gang so dangerous? Him. Because he's the most feared and violent man known in the underworld. But her parents come bearing news, news that changes her life forever and that forever has something to do with Luca. **ALSO I WROTE THIS WHEN I WAS WAY TO GODDAMN YOUNG SO EXCUSE THE CHEESY LANGUAGE, WHEN YOU STUMBLE ACROSS THEM. IM SORRY.**
