"Stand up.", he said to me. "What?", I asked confused. "STAND UP.", he ordered slightly aggressive. I quickly got up from the bed and stood in front of him. "Take off your underwear.", he demanded. "Wh-" "Now." Doing what he told me to I slowly slipped my underwear off. I was now completely naked as his eyes roamed over my whole body again. "Lay down on your back." Once again I obeyed him without talking back this time which caused him to smirk. Then he grabbed my hands and cuffed them to the bed frame. My eyes widened and as I was about to ask him what he's doing he held up one of his hands. Understanding his signal I remained silent. "Good girl", he whispered in my ear. ------------------- Emily Potters, a 21 year old girl, had to run away from her dark past. Seeking shelter in New York, she battled her way through the darkness.

They're on opposite sides of the battle, he knows of her but she has no clue who he is, until one event intertwines their two lives together. They suddenly rely just on each other, they need each other. They're all each other has. ✨ "I felt sorry for you, when I saw you. I wanted to help you because you were being attacked by these men. But now, I'm starting to think that maybe you deserve it. Maybe...maybe you're just as bad as they are." He held my stare as I spoke and when I finished, he let out a humourless laugh, also standing up to his feet. I watched him carefully as he crossed the room coming towards me, giving me the same cold glare as before. He stopped right in front of me, close enough for me to smell the strong scent of his aftershave, before he leaned down a little bringing his face closer to mine. His next words came out barely above a whisper but were still powerful enough to cause my breath to catch in my throat. "Maybe I am just bad as them...or maybe I'm worse baby girl." ⚠️ Warning - this book contains explicit mentions and descriptions of abuse, rape, mental health issues and suicide.

Catalina Stone was born into luxury, but with a price. She was raised by the Stone Mafia-a world of power, blood, and danger. By the age of eight, she was already learning how to lead, and by sixteen, she took control. At eighteen, she pushed her mafia into the top three in the country. Now at twenty-three, Catalina is everything she's worked for: strong, sexy, and in charge. But lately, things aren't so simple. New people, new emotions...things are starting to feel, human. And for once, she's starting to question it all. Then Giovanni Perez walks into her life. And everything changes. But Catalina knows better than anyone. When you mess with fire, you're bound to get burned. Sample: "Mafia I see, didn't take you as the type," He said, breaking our silent staring contest. "Then I'm doing my job," "Damn good one if you're in the top three." "Thank you, I know," I said. We were studying each other. His body in that tux looked delicious. His hair was styled differently, less slicked back, I liked this one more. He was practically looking at me the same way. Like as if he wanted me right now, on this table. "Why'd you leave?" He questioned. "Well, it was a one night stand wasn't it?" "No, we wanted to be friends. But since clearly now, were aligned, we can be more." He said. Definitely not. "No, Giovanni, you and I are just work partners. Nothing more. Don't get confused from something that only happened once." My voice was serious. I was serious. Now that I know who he is and that we're working together, I can't risk it. "One date." He said.
