Arabella Abernathy Accardi.
A name that held power known to everyone except for the girl wearing it. She was someone who shared the blood of both the Accardi crime family and the Abernathy one, born out of a forbidden love that has left the whole of Underground in flames.
Blood was shed, tears were spilled and ties were broken because of a decades-old rivalry between the two families. The question remains - will Arabella's existence be enough for it to stop? Or will she forever have to choose between her mother's side of the family and her father's?
Struggling to keep up with her family's secrets and overprotective cousins, the last thing she expected was a dangerous mafia heir who seemed unable to let her go.
Gabriel Rivera has always been portrayed by others as cold, ruthless, and bloodthirsty. As the next Don of a powerful crime empire, he lived up to those descriptions. After a great loss, he never felt affection for anyone, nor did he feel the need to.
So why is it that Arabella makes him want to change that?

Dominic's life was something he would forever be grateful for since he knew that he never had it as rough as others. But there were always going to be times that he wanted to give up. With the responsibility of leading an entire mafia and his own past commitment issues, he believes the barrier to letting go is far greater than what others tell him. And when new desires emerge, he notes how his heart skips a beat whenever he sees her. His instinct kicks in, and he raises his barriers twice as high as she lowers hers to make place for him. All I was guilty of, was showing them mercy when no one else would. ~~~ "I saw you, Dominic. I wish you saw me." "I see you." I freeze at his words, my back facing him. "I can only see you. Everything I look at, everything I touch, everything I smell always leads back to you. I spent most of my life thinking that my heart was my biggest weakness. I always imagined that it would be my downfall. I had a loving family and that was enough for me. Getting a girlfriend, getting married, having a family, none of that mattered to me. Before you." He pauses, taking a breath and my eyes water. "I kept any other part of my heart guarded and almost locked. It was as if I didn't have one at all. Even now, its still fucked up. The lock I've kept is warned out though the only person who has its key is you. It's yours."Complete
