(BOOK 1 OF MAFIA LOVE SERIES) [COMPLETED & EDITING] * "Arie," he whispered, his smile dropping as he closed the distance between us. "I'm sor..." My right hand met his left cheek brutally, stopping all that he had to say. "How dare you?" I hissed, landing another smack on the same spot. "How could you do this to me?" I raised my hand up again to place another one, but he caught my wrist before I could do so. "Plan your next move very carefully," he spoke in a low, belligerent tone tightening his grip on my wrist, daring me to slap him again. Pain jolted from the area, forcing tears to sting at the corner of my eyes. "Or what?" I scowled at him. "You don't want to find out." He took a step closer, staring into my eyes. "And don't tempt me!" * Today was the day it all started. Everything began to fall apart. It twisted me, threw me against the wall, and ripped my sanity and innocence to shreds. I never thought I'd go through it, but there I was in the middle of it all. Arie Noelle is a wise, strong-willed girl with a good heart, but a misfortunate incident leading up to others tears her apart. What happens when she finds herself on the radar of Leo Bonferroni, a ruthless mafia leader hiding behind the mask of a sexy tycoon, who is not only intrigued but also smitten by her? However, they begin to change each other, molding into something else. She does things she never dreamt of doing. He places the world at her feet, but will she accept it or kick it away in fear? The rising tension between the two kills her inside, but will she give into the sexy temptation walking around with an irresistible smirk that mushes her into a puddle? Will they ever find her destroyer or will she end up on the noose herself? Warning: Strong language, sexual content, rape, and graphic violence.

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.
