Zeldris Akuryō. 25 years old. Top rate assassin and feared hacker. It's a part of the family business, and he's been doing it for years. Once you enter, you can never ever leave..... The laws of the life he lives are dull, and takes all the light out of being human, though that never bothered him either.
So when he goes on another undercover mission to another city, he expects it to be as usual. He has it all planned out, and he has taken every little possible variable into account. Or so he thinks anyway.
Who would have thought that a world class assassin and infamous hacker could be brought down by a single college student whose smile could rival the sun?
And all of a sudden, he is no longer content with the life he lives, and the laws feels restricting and irritating. For the first time, Zeldris wants something for himself. A small taste of happiness was all he needed. But now he's facing a hard choice.
He can either try to forget him, and slowly wither away in his dull world filled with blood and darkness, for he knows they'd be killed for his treachery. Or he can take the offered hand and run away as far as they can, together. But will it be enough to escape the world he wants to leave behind?

Hired By A Mafia Boss
⚠️⚠️I apologize beforehand. This story is under subtle reconstruction, so please do not get confused if you see changes midway. It's still the most beautiful love story you'd read, so please give it a chance.⚠️⚠️ "What in the world, kid?" The roar erupted from the sleek Lamborghini as its owner, a man who could easily pass for a Greek deity, emerged from the luxurious vehicle. Scratch that, he practically embodied one. But wait, did he just refer to me as a 'kid'? For heaven's sake, I'm 23! "Are you out of your damn mind?" I snapped back to reality as his furious voice pierced through. Despite his mesmerizing Italian accent, my anger still simmered. How could he? After nearly running me over, he had the audacity to label me a child and throw in some profanity. In response, I resorted to the one skill I had mastered - I stuck my tongue out at him before sauntering away. What an insufferable jerk. ***** Allow me to introduce Ava Hilton, a seemingly ordinary 23-year-old who could easily be mistaken for a typical teenager any day, any time.

What unfolds when, in the midst of a frantic pursuit of a $20 million contract, he almost knocks down Ava, a woman he hastily judged as a child? Instead of receiving an anticipated apology, she cheekily stuck her tongue out at him and walked away. Oh he was going to make her pay one way or another! That moment marked the inception of a love story unlike any other.

TRAPPED IN HIS EYES
Nobody ever thinks their life will shatter in an instant-until it does. Not at first. You wake up, you go through the motions, and you trust the people around you. You laugh, you cry, you love. You never stop to wonder if the hands you hold today will be the same ones that destroy you tomorrow. I never did. I never questioned the warmth in his smile, the strength in his presence, the way he stood by my side like a shadow I could always rely on. I thought I had finally found someone who understood me, someone who didn't see me as an outsider. Someone I called a brother. But trust is a dangerous thing. It blinds you. It makes you miss the signs staring right at you. Because the moment I saw the truth- I realized I had been holding the devil's hand all along. #5 Survivor #36 ObsessionComplete
His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.
