You accepted to go to a High School Reunion Party without really recognising anyone. You finally started talking with your high school bestfriend and she eventually talks about him, your enemy. He's here, he's looking at you, with those infuriating eyes. But little do you know, he'll throw hands and threats to protect you. - "I fucking need you, sweetheart. Now." He says as he lays me down. His voice full with barely restrained desire. He starts unbuttoning his shirt and his mouth is already on my neck as he leaves small red marks and kisses. I can't believe I'm doing this, I'm gonna have sex with the man I hate more than anything in this world. But as he nips at my throat, a needy whimper escapes from it, making Viktor groans, and making me forget about the walls I've built around me for years.

Prologue How do you fix something that is beyond repair? How do you stop your heart from breaking each time you try to fix the wrong? How do you redeem someone when you know the person is beyond redemption? SHE was the happiest soul to step on this earth. HE was worse than satan himself. She was an angel to the world but only a few knew she was a devil in disguise too. He had a heart of black, they thought, but only a few knew that the same heart was once golden. She was adamant on making the wrong right. He was adamant on making it worse. But In the journey of making his wrongs right, In bringing him out of the darkness. She didn't know she would become darkness herself, she wasn't aware that her heart would break into million pieces which she couldn't put back. ^ ^ ^ ^ "would you treat me the same way if I wasn't independent and equally strong?" I asked breaking the silence. He stared at me and said "No, I wouldn't" shocked would be an understatement, I was astonished his 3 words made my heart jump but I wasn't prepared for what came next, " I wouldn't treat you the same way not because no woman deserves it, but because I would never, EVER bend to anyone because I won't beg for anyone to stay, because I don't NEED anyone" he said, coldly. That day I realized one thing, whatever this guy had gone through was beyond repair but I wasn't aware that with him, even I' d have to go through the same hell. Would Blaze and Olivia cross all limits of being crazy? Will Blaze's cold demeanor be broken by Olivia's warmth? Or will Blaze bring darkness to her like he bought to everything else? Will obsession win over love? Will sins be redeemed? Cover by: @krissthetic.

"My eyes flashed with confusion and sadness. "You don't love me," I spat. "You just love the idea of me. And that's not enough." I said, trying to find my voice. It was a moment of raw emotion, of unbridled passion, and of unwavering conviction He objected, "No, I really do. I thought I was just lusting after you but after everything that has happened, I realized that it was not lust. I am in love with you Mi Reina." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When Jazlyn took a job as a stripper at Leonardo's club, she never expected to catch his eye. But after he saves her from a drunk patron, their whirlwind encounter sets off a chain reaction of obsession, betrayal, and deceit. Shattered by Leonardo's rejection, Jazlyn's world crumbled around her. Yet, with a fierce determination, she rose from the ashes, forging a new path and discovering a love that will heal her shattered heart. But just as she thought she'd finally escaped the toxic grasp of her past, Leonardo came crawling back, his eyes pleading for forgiveness. Jazlyn's soul was torn asunder: could she truly trust the man who had once destroyed her, or would the shadows of his past forever haunt their love?"

He had his future planned out. She had no idea what the future had in store for her. She loves deeply. He's never loved anyone. She's sweet, loving, caring. He's anything but. What could possibly go wrong when a heartless mafia don falls for the one girl he swore to stay away from. To Camila, it was supposed to be simple, apply for a job and get hired but you see, things are never really that simple, specially when you've been living in a lie. ~~~~~ They say you should always follow your heart. You should always pay heed to it, let it guide you and make decisions for you but that's just it. Deceiving. Treacherous. Misleading. Perverse. That's what the heart is. Once you allow it to take control there's no going back. ~~~~~ "No one has ever made me feel the way Matteo does and as much as I want to hate and get rid of these wretched feelings, I can't, I'm unable to. Thankfully he doesn't know this, as far as he knows I despise his guts and I hope it remains that way." "Camila is unaware of what I feel for her, I've fallen deeply into a pit of desperation and she's managed to invade every single one of my thoughts, to control every single one of my emotions to the point where if she told me to burn the world down, I'd happily light up the match and let it burn to ashes just for her."

Cash I fucked up. Or rather, I'm fucked up. How did I, a high ranking member of the French mafia, allow myself to be distracted by this... stripper? I was supposed to use her for information, that's it. It should have been easy. I pay her money and she tells me about the Russians. Simple. Except, I fucked it up. I let the one advantage we had over them go because I fucking claimed her. What's even worse is that she hates pretending to be my woman and fights me with every single thing. Yeah, it's a fucked up situation but now that I've met her and she's mine, I wouldn't change a goddamn thing. Lux I fucked up. I knew the risk of the Russian men finding out about me but I went along with it anyway. Hell, I almost had to. If you were offered $10,000 to ask a man a few question, would you turn it down? You're a goddamn liar if you say no. Or maybe you're smart as hell because now I'm stuck with a mafia man that refuses to leave me alone. I'm now in between a war I never knew existed. If I had the chance to go back and never meet Cash, would I do it? You damn right I would. Who am I kidding? Now I'm the goddamn liar.

Why..why are you doing this ? You can't leave me alone like this . How can you do this to me ? You ..you don't love me now after all that was all that a lie .she said crying and sobbing hitting her hands on his chest . He held her hand away from him ..yes you are right it was all a lie . Can't you fucking see Ayushi I used you ,I fucking used you and I did told you to not fall for me but it was you who couldn't control yourself and you blame me now he said in a loud voice making her flinch and moving back . I...I don.... don't believe you .she said in a wishper.you are lying vihaan . Did he really hurt her ? Doesn't he love her when he can even burn the world for her peace and safety who killed a man just because he was touching her in the wrong way . Was that all a lie ? Secrets will unfold,,past will be ignited when she will found about her family . Stat tuned for this unfolding event Will love win defeating hatred?, When I first saw you I knew I needed you . I need you in my life but when I found who you are i forgot that I loved you once and started hurting you even though it was hurting me more to hurt you . Slow chuckle i must be a monster to ruin your life but I am happy it was me who found you if anyone else in the underworld would have found you they wouldn't have gone easy on you . You should thank me , sweetheart. She used to think she can give up her life for him only for him to scar a bullet hole in her heart which will never fall in love again .
