"And where exactly are you headed to? Surely not to pick a fight with whoever hit your brother... right?"

I felt my face heat up from the accurate accusation and shook my head slowly.

"N-No-"

"Your first words to me are lies?" He clicked his tongue in an authoritative matter, causing my legs to become jelly within his dominance as he continued, "That's a real shame... Sammie? Is that your name?" I nodded slowly as I looked up at him and he took a step forward, shrugging his shirt over his head whilst I took a step back.

My back hit the back of the tree and I breathed heavily as he got close to my face, "Now... why would I want a liar living in my house?"

But then a certain man, Luciano Rossi better known as Don Rossi , Don of Rome, Italy, sent his Capo in look for a Pawn to carry out his plan. And just so happens, Teresa targeted him, all the while, he targeted her. From being abandoned by her mother, finding out her boyfriend's transgressions, and being taken away 5000 miles away to Italy, she's been dragged into the mafia world as a seductress. But she was too good. Instead of making just one man eat out of her hand, she made the most important... Don Rossi himself. * * * She wanted him to make her forget. She abandoned his lips only to place them on his neck making him groan. Provoking his urges. "Tesoro" He whispered, seeing as her motives were different from his. That she wanted more than he could give. Her hand slid down his chest, ignoring him as she reached his zipper and he grabbed her hand, stopping her and whispered, "No" He raised up, cupping her face as he said, "I understand you're emotional, but this is not going to make it better" She grabbed his hand, leaning into his touch as she said, " Yes it will. You make me feel better" He averted his gaze, hiding his emotion. Those words reached him like she wanted them to, but he wouldn't show it. " I can't" Was the first time he said those words. Because he always could, but not now. Not with her. " Aren't you the kind of man to take advantage of someone's weakness?" She huffed and he heard the slight attitude in her voice. But he knew it was because he said no, and not that she really meant it.

Although a lot of inspiration was taken from my life (surprising?), this story and all characters depicted are fictional. I do suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder. Those themes were inspired by my experiences. ❌⭕️❌⭕️ This book started as practice and a creative outlet, which is why the plot is... interesting. My goals for this challenge are listed below, let me know if I nailed them! Goals: ✔️ 50,000 words (2,000 - 2,500 per chapter) ✔️ Dabble in psychological themes ✔️ Bring a dark twist to the Mafia Romance genre ✔️ Limit the use of profanities (which this genre is known for :P) ✔️ Finish my first novel
