My name is Charlotte Aviva Martin and this isnt my story. To say the least, this isnt even my name. This is a story about survivors, people who have their own darkness but cant seem to find a way to free themselves, to loosen the bonds that tie to the all-encompassing shadows of the night....
Love, have it in any form, is said to be your saviour, your rescuer or even your salvation but...
Isn't it love that plunges the toughest of men into a blinding ocean of darkness....holds you close then leaves you, defeated and broken....shatters you to a point of no return all whilst drowning you in the land of the blindsided.
Is it love that could save you from the darkness and become your only light.....

"Andrew, what are you doing?" I ask as my back hit the wall. I was in his room and honestly, I was not sure why.
"Giving myself to you.....is it a crime?" A smirk on his face as he walks closer. It wasn't a funny joke. I try to escape but I am caught in his trap. Wrapping hands around me, he kissed me roughly. I squirmed as I felt him harden against me, what did I get myself into now...

All Yours
"Please," I whisper, my voice trembling as tears prick the corners of my eyes. "Please don't hurt me." The words barely escape my throat, fragile and desperate. He studies me for a moment, tilting his head slightly, almost as if he's amused by my plea. Then he scoffs, the sound sharp and mocking. "Why would I want to do that?" he murmurs, his voice smooth but carrying a dark undertone that chills me. He takes a step forward, and instinctively, I step back. "I've just found you..." He pauses, his gaze dragging over my face like a predator sizing up its prey. "And now you're mine." Aurora Evans leads a life of simplicity. Eat, work, sleep-her unchanging regimen is her sanctuary, and she has no intention of altering it. But what unfolds when a shadowy figure, lurking beyond her windows, takes an insidious interest in her? One glance at her in a café ensnares him, rendering him captivated, his singular ambition becoming clear: to claim her as his own. Aurora's attempts to escape his shadowy games are futile, especially in the cloak of night when he emerges, weaving his spell under the cover of darkness. He teases, entices, and pushes her perilously close to her breaking point. Her resolve is to distance herself as much as possible. Yet, fate has a cruel sense of irony. When she is abruptly dismissed from her previous job, she unwittingly lands a position working for him-as his assistant-entangling her in a web she can no longer evade. *A STALKER ROMANCE* #1 in "assistant" 12/23/24 #1 in "criminal" 3/8/25Complete

"Join me," she murmured, her voice a seductive, low tone that carried on the still air. It was an invitation, a challenge, and a promise all rolled into one.

He remained motionless, a predator assessing his prey. The game had begun, and he knew that one wrong move could cost him everything. His jaw tightened, the muscle ticking. The silence stretched, thick with unspoken tension. Finally, a low growl rumbled from his chest.

The Mafia's Mercy
The darkness in his eyes, the dangerous smell of alcohol in his breath, and his deathly grip keeping me bound to him made my heart pound in my chest and my body quiver beneath him. Shamefully, it wasn't anything that I wasn't used to, because...the things I let him do to me? When he was frustrated, annoyed, and angry at the world, I was here to be his pound of flesh. In return, he masked the void of my loneliness because for months, that was the transaction of our relationship. He'd pin me to the wall, bend me over the counter, pull my hair, slap me, choke me, and I enjoyed every second of it because in that moment, it finally felt good to be powerless. Irony is a funny thing. I enjoyed being in pain because it made me forget how much I was hurting. *** "I warned you, doll." His voice strikes a string of chills down the base of my spine, a reminder that all of the time in the world could pass, and he's still not letting go. This is where the good girl in me dies. "You're mine now," he whispers. *** My name is Mercy-Mercy Carter. I went to college. Got myself a useless Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree. His name is Marcel-Marcello Saldívar. However, at the time, I didn't know that he, the heir to the Saldívar Mafia empire, was the man that I had blindly offered myself to. As smart as I am, I was stupid all the times when it actually mattered. After all, he did warn me that he was dangerous. I just didn't think he could be much worse than my thug of a brother. I was vulnerable-naive. My name is Mercy, and I belong to him. My name is Mercy, and I am The Mafia's Mercy. ⚠️ Content Advisory: This is a DARK Romance novel, in every sense of the word.
