Athena Grace O'Mara is just but a simple girl who has already been through so much at a young age. She tries to look for peace and happiness after losing her father, and before she has the time to recover, she is faced with yet another heartbreaking reality when she loses her mother. All alone with her friends to comfort her, she is now with her younger brother and has to face the world all by herself.
Not once did she ever imagine that she'd be spotted by the most relentless mafia leader in the country. After everything that has happened in her life, she has to face her greatest fear. 'Him'.
She is taken on a rollercoaster of emotions. She has to come to terms with not only herself but with her new reality and accept what it has brought with it. Danger, fear, loneliness and torment.
Little does she know that the heartless monster she sees has a soft spot, for her alone, and would never harm her.
What happens when she meets his; power hungry, respect demanding, control driven, inhumane side? And is forced to live with him for her own protection. His ways move her in more ways than she can fathom. Can she live with those feelings, knowing who he is?
Will she ever get rid of her fear of him and give him a chance?
Can she really take his hand and step into his chaotic world, full of danger, and sleepless nights? He says he can protect her, can he really?
Can she see past his demons and learn to comfort him and accept the life of crime he has chosen?
Can she say what her heart only dreams of shouting out, or will she never get the chance?
Or will this prove to be a love never meant to be?

A Surprise Baby in the CEO's Arms
When Elara was ten, her family collapsed and she was quietly folded into Jonas's world as his supposed "little sister." To her, Jonas was more than a guardian; he was first love, the secret she kept beneath her ribs. She watched him move through life with a confidence she could only admire from afar, learning to treasure small mercies as if they were miracles. At twenty, everything broke. One drunken night Jonas kissed her-an impulsive, confusing violation that read like permission and betrayal all at once. By morning his engagement was announced and by midnight he'd arranged for her to leave the country. He cut contact with the kind of finality that felt like erasure. Six years later, Elara returns-not to beg, but to reclaim the life she's built for her daughter, Lila. She has worked hard, learned to be fiercely self-reliant, and guarded the truth about Lila's father. Running into Jonas at the company where fate plants them both detonates the fragile order they each maintain. He sees the child and demands, stunned and raw, "Give me a plausible explanation-whose child is this?" That question upends them both. For Elara, Lila is survival and dignity. For Jonas, the child is a scandal that could shatter family reputation and the neat certainties he's lived by. This is a slow-burn second-chance romance about motherhood, pride, and whether two people shaped by the same past can find a new future without losing themselves.

Always Down
My body was pressed against his hard slack and colliding underneath the agonizing tension, he lowered his mouth to mine and his tongue darted to run across my bottom lip. My core throbbed under his touch and my thighs clenched hard when he thrusted his hard on against my body. He then leaned to kiss me, long and angered, forcing for the tears beneath my closed lids to burn like acid. His teeth nicked my bottom lip and a cry of pain pushed through my throat. My nails clawed his forearms in retaliation but that never stopped his assault on my lips. He showed me how fucking vulnerable my body was beneath him and his words from the other night pricked my conscience. I assembled my guts and pushed his body back. I tried to step past him but he held my upper arm and pulled me back against the ropes. "Let go of me, Hades." My voice wavered. He stared down at me for a brief moment before releasing his hold and backed away. "Gladly." Hades D'amiano- vain, narcissistic and a lethal weapon. Mia Faye- seductive, assertive and a fatale lie. Secrets, love and betrayal to unfoldComplete
Yours To Keep | 18+
~MATURE CONTENT WARNING~ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ One plan. One mission. There was no room for mistakes, and the slightest error could only mean death. But she was ready. It was simple. Get in, (brutally) murder one man and get out, expeditiously. Lola Summers knew exactly what she had to do. It was a task she spent the better quarter of her life preparing for. It was her life's goal. And she would stop at nothing to achieve that goal... even if it involved taking a calulated risk in the heat of the moment. Initially...Lola knew that taking risks, even if it helped her goal, was self sabotage. Overlooking those risks would be disastrous, and being unprepared for anything was suicide. In the heat of that moment, Lola hadn't for once considered any outside intrusion. She hadn't fully prepared for being seen, and most importantly, she wasn't prepared for being caught. More specifically... being caught by a man who had hesitated to kill her on the spot for what she'd done. A very strange man who made her shiver at the slightest touch and could disarm her with one penetrative gaze. A very peculiar man who wasn't very interested in letting her go either.

Quote : You are like a rose, so beautifully tempting but the second I came within your space, I was pricked by your sharp, cruel thorns. You drowned me in your toxins, like you were a drink of poison that I kept drinking even when my own heart couldn't take it. You were an ocean that sank me in sorrows. Like the sun, you burned me and left unhealed wounds on my skin, blinding me with your beauty just to leave me reduced to burnt ashes.Complete
