In the heart of Italy lies a commission making all the rules. Full of old blood, money and greed. They've been writing the book since the beginning of time.
 
Donovan Russo, young and new blood. He doesn't necessarily follow any rulebook but his own. Living in his father's shadow, high expectations are upon him. He's been apart of the game since he was a little boy. The only judgement he takes is from himself. 

Rae Lyon, another young blood amongst the commission. Not only is she young, but she's the first black woman on the commission. You can only imagine how that's going for her. Fighting for her position daily, she puts down the iron hammer when it comes to conducting business. 

What happens when Donovan gets himself into a serious situation that Rae is now involved in? These two set out to change the rulebook forever.

THE DON'S PHOENIX by Sulekha_2002
40 parts Complete Mature
She was born into a dynasty; he was born to rule the world's deadliest empire. Together, they burned everything down to rise from the ashes. Anastacia Dinara Romanov was criminal royalty, the only daughter of the infamous Russian Don. Raised behind palace gates and bulletproof glass, she was protected by four ruthless Romanov men, her father and three fiercely loyal brothers. Her life was shadowed by violence but wrapped in loyalty, and in that world, one boy always saw her, Leonardo Vincenzo, heir to the Italian Mafia throne, a silent protector whose love never needed words, but power is rarely enough to protect a girl from the man she chooses. Victor Armando, son of the Mexican cartel king who once kidnapped her mother and left her to die, entered Anastacia's life with a lie wrapped in love. Against her family's warnings, she married him for peace. Instead, she became his possession. What began as a treaty quickly turned into a gilded cage, a slow-burning war waged behind closed doors. Victor didn't need to break her with fists; he did it with silence, shame, manipulation, and betrayal. He shattered her spirit, destroyed her body image, and isolated her from everyone who ever loved her. His mistress, Lisa, taunted her, and he let it happen. That was until Anastacia overheard a plan that would end her family. It was the moment everything changed. In secret, she stole files, recordings, passwords, everything. She risked her life for evidence, and when the weight of it all became unbearable, she broke. Leonardo never stopped watching. The necklace he gave her, his final act of love, saved her life. He found her, saved her, and then together, they began her vengeance. Taken to Italy, hidden and healed under Leonardo's protection, Anastacia trained to become a force. In the arms of the world's most feared Don, she didn't just survive; she transformed. She's not the girl who fell for a lie. She's the storm coming to burn it all down.

As it stained my hands, tears were beginning to pour down causing me to subconsciously wipe my face. "How'd you feel after committing your first murder?" His deep voice asked me from behind. Slowly turning around, showing him the mess of emotions I was going through. "Fuck you." I responded slowly, with much anger. I caught a spark in his eye and he slowly began to smirk. "It won't be your last." *+*+* Stephano Varallo. A dangerous man feared by men and admired by women. Andrea Russo. A kind woman with her perfect fiance and loyal bestfriend. When Stephano requests for a nurse to come to his house Andrea arrives and Stephano can't seem to let her go. Far from a cliche. *+*+* A spin-off to His Personal Assistant.
