"My Sweetest Girl,
It pains me to say that I will not be returning to New York. I need you to know that we can no longer be together. I must put a stop to our relationship now, before it is too late.
Please do not try to call or text. I won't answer.
My things will be gone by the time you have finished reading this letter. You have until the end of our lease in September to move.
Take care,
Mateo"
Mariella met Mateo at an impossible time in her life; an abused teenager seeking solace from the son of an Italian mafioso.
When Mateo left unexpectedly, life only got more impossible as Mariella struggled to balance her own personal grief with raising children on her own.
Fate brought the two together, but it also tore them apart. With twins who only remind her of their father, and the return of the man himself, how will Mariella cope? And how will fate cope with the chaos of colliding the pair once more?

What if your family expects you to get an heir for the family's empire and you make the wrong choices when it comes to women? You abduct a child, right? But instead of a boy who can take over, you take a girl. Great decision, absolutely fantastic. Sure, the mom is in hospital and will most likely die, but what the fuck is wrong with you? How can you feel this entitled to go against the law and to offend against moral standards? Well, it's quite easy if you are the boss of a mafia. Meet Riccardo, an Italian don in his late twenties. A stubborn son of a bitch, who does not care what his friends and family say when it comes to a gorgeous little angel called Isabella. This sweet child conquers his heart in the wink of an eye. _____________________________________________________________ Sequel: Un accordo col diavolo _____________________________________________________________ A TL;DR so you can skip the A/N without a second thought: I am a native German, so feel free to comment in the chapters or to message me, if you find mistakes.

Scars On Her Soul
"It just doesn't feels right" "What doesn't feels right? Love" "This business trip of yours...I'm just not getting a good feeling about it..." "I don't know why...but I'm kinda scared" "Just listen to me carefully, sweetheart. You have absolutely nothing to worry about...as long as I'm alive" The conversation we had a few hours before he left, rang in my ears as I paced around on the hard concrete sidewalk, impatiently waiting for his arrival. I turned around quickly hearing a car roughly pull over. "What the fuck are you doing here" He said hopping out of the car, slamming the door shut. And by the tone of his voice I could tell that he was furious with me for not listening to him yet again but that was probably the last thing I cared about right now. All I cared about at this moment was that he was standing right in front of me...safe and alive. "Vienna! I fucking asked you to stay at home until I returned. Why won't you ever listen to me" He added while taking quick steps towards me. Ignoring the anger in his eyes I just ran towards him, throwing my arms around his neck, I sighed in relief...hugging him as if my life depended on it as he sighed before hugging me back tightly. And just like that...I felt safe once again. I felt at home once again. ••• "You have a choice, either choose me or being a mafia" Those were the golden words spoken by Vienna Green, to the love of her life as she feared the destruction that the title 'Mafia' could bring into their lives.
