''I have a question for you, Lia,'' Caleb started, ''How the hell are you still alive?'' he added, chuckling at my reaction.
I rolled my eyes at this ridiculous question. Since I met Caleb and started working with him, we grew closer. He was a hell of a fighter. Not every day you're getting trained at a hidden assassin school. I learned a lot from him, even though he kept teasing me that I should be more careful and think before I act, as he had to save my ass multiple times, more than I could count. And at the same time, he set my body on fire whenever he touched me.
The worst part wasn't the fact that he was 11 years older than me. It also wasn't the reality that his biological father, the capo of the Sicilian mafia, wanted my head on a pike, and as sure as hell wasn't the tiny detail that I was going to be married to his twin brother that both of us found out about on the day of my arranged engagement party.
It was the idea of having feelings for the guy initially hired to kill me, by the man who hated my guts, or rather, hated the guts of the Woman I was behind the closed doors of the mafia underworld.
Apart from that, I am pretty sure I might have some feelings for the man I was set up to marry, that looks exactly like my partner in crime, even though we aren't criminals.
I never thought that the life of a 22-year-old university student would get so complicated. Unfortunately for me, the situation I found myself in the middle of was barely the tip of the iceberg, and I was about to find out soon that some moments in my life weren't as they seemed and that I've always had it in me to become the person I was today.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐨𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐝, 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚." Natalia glared at Lorenzo and tried crawling away from him once more, every cell in her body screaming for her to run as far away as she could. "How many times do I need to cum before you're satisfied?" Natalia panted against him, desperate noises leaving her mouth as the sixth orgasm started building in the pit of her stomach. Lorenzo pulled her closer when he sensed the girl crawling away, ignoring her whimpers as he grew rougher. "Until you realise this is a punishment, not a reward." "And when has excessive orgasms ever been a punishment?" "Let's see if you'll think the same in a few hours." ❦ Natalia Martin was simply on a work trip.

He just thought that her eyes were pretty. That her dimpled cheek was cute. And that her bright smile made his heart skip a beat.Complete
