Gianna Kingsley only came back to the rundown southside neighborhood for a funeral. The man who'd raised her had passed, and she didn't hesitate to leave the office after hearing that news.
When she arrived, however, she was forced to conspire with old ghosts to keep Kingsley Cove and her relatives safe from a ruthless drug lord; King.
When she meets him face to face, everything changes.

"You don't want no parts of this," he growled, staring down at me while still standing on the porch.
"Kamari is my friend-"
He was quick on the draw again, aiming his gun straight at my head. My relatives gasped, and even I thought he was going to end me then and there.
Okay, maybe I had mouthed off a little too much.
Alright, I definitely had.

"You know, I'm feeling generous tonight, so I'll let you decide." He leaned in, his breath hot against my cheek. "Should I use my fingers, or would you rather feel this gun inside your pussy instead?" He smirked, enjoying the way my body tensed. "Which will it be, princess? A barrel full of bullets or my hand?" Tears burned my eyes spilling hot down my cheeks. My breath came in shuddering gasps as I shook my head frantically, silent, pleading. "A loaded gun is far more thrilling than mere hands, don't you think?" he drawled. The barrel hovered just above my navel, pressing lightly, a reminder I could lose my life any second. β . β Adunni Agbaje never expected to spend valentine's day running for her dear life.

Circumstances run in his favor as the woman of his dreams landed into his domain. He would never let her go. A chance glance turned obsession. #1 BWWN! #1 Mafia [4/12/24] *Book excerpt* -- Her cheeks turned red, ever so slightly through her chocolate skin. Her skin looked and felt so smooth. She liked the compliments, the Italian flare. It ropes many women, but the way she looked at me with her big almond eyes had my mind racing and my body in overdrive. She was not immune to my charm, even in her current situation. Her hair was in a slick bun. I was sad not to be able to see the curls adorne her face. And yet she stared at me again, watching me like a dog. Curious gazes. It was fun to tease, and the response I got back over affirmed my teasing. She seemed more relaxed with me. She looked away from me. She stared out the window watching the street ride by. It was silent for a while as I texted my subordinates basic commands. Nothing conspicuous. "Alessio, where are you taking me," her voice piped up. Seems like it took her a while to muster up the courage. I loved her sweet voice when it spoke me me and when she said my name... It was such a turn-on. She wasn't supposed to really ask questions. I don't like lots of questions. I thought about the best way to respond but opted not to say anything at all. She was as stubborn as always, forgetful too. She scanned around me before huffing to herself and looking back out the window. -- Started 06/08/2023- 8/14/2023 Highest Rankings: #7 Arranged [4/26/24] #26 Older #1 Bwwm #13 Man #1 Mafia #1 lovetragedy #6 lovestory #5 BlackwomenComplete
